5.0 out of 5 stars Bronson at his Best, April 13, 2002

By	shytownron (Chicago) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Breakout (DVD)

Being a big Charles Bronson fan, i consider this to be among one of his best movies. The usually tight lipped quite guy is actually very colorful and alive in this action packed thriller. What a great cast also that are along for the ride Robert Duvall, Jull Ireland, Randy Quaid, Sheere North and even John Houston. Also, Another great score by Jerry Goldsmith. The real winner here is Bronson's performance.
Well for the DVD? it is barebones not even a trailer and although i would have loved to see some extras on this, chances of that happening are very remote. The biggest joy is to finally have this in the widescreen format 2.35:1 after countless years of watching the lousy pan and scan versions on video and laserdisc, this is a real treat to have and a MUST own for bronson fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars LIFE IMITATING ART, December 26, 2004

By	Gregory Saffady (Michigan) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Breakout (DVD)

When BREAKOUT was released in 1975, it was shown at Jackson State Prison (Michigan). Several days later, someone tried to break an inmate out of the prison using a helicopter. Unlike the film it failed. But another classic example of life imitating art. The prisoners would have been better off trying to get an imitation of Sheree North in (the)black lingerie (sequence). BREAKOUT is yet again another enjoyable Bronson time waster, not of the caliber of his work with Michael Winner, but still worth a look. The Jerry Goldsmith score is first rate as expected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Action and fast paced, January 18, 2008

By	John A. Malagrin (Baltimore, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Breakout (DVD)

Breakout

A must buy for Charles Bronson fans. His real wife, Jill Ireland, is just so beautiful. Robert Duvall, Sheree North, and Randy Quaid greatly support Bronson in this "breakout" tale of Bronson and company rescuing Duvall from a Mexican jail, for a crime he did not commit.
There is action, humor, action, and great tension and drama in this movie.

Mrs CB cannot act and because she has a big part the film is ruined by her, imho.
