jack-reddan Old school suspense filled thriller. Loved the slow-paced patient feel to the film of course interspersed with some moments of action. Different filming to nowadays. The camera really focuses on Mcqueen's and some other character's faces. Mcqueen is able to show us his thoughts with his piercing blue eyes. The score is jazzy cool and the environs are often mysteriously dark. The roar of the engines was one of the great film moments. 8/10

cinematastic2 McQueen had it all - Cool and Edgy. Something about the movie is just old school intriguing - I watch it at least once a year.

hodwatt-20518 In addition to the brilliant car chase that this film is most well known for, it also has a brilliant soundtrack, nail biting suspense and a likable lead character. I think what sets Frank Bullitt apart from other action heroes is how he doesn't spit out witty one liners like Dirty Harry or John McLean from 'Die Hard' He is instead a realistic man who you could meet anywhere. This is a film you should definitely watch if you haven't done so already. It has stood the test of time and is as exciting today as it was back in 1968. It can be slow moving at times but it makes up for it with it's brilliant action scenes, made better by the fact there is no pretentious CGI. Highly recommended...

mspilman-81505 I will begin with the films faults number 1 Steve McQueen's performance it's not one of his best he's dull but still rather good. number 2 the plot it's too complicated. Now for the positive's number one Robert Vaughan's performance captivating. number 2 the music cool and thrilling .Number 3 peter Yates's direction tense gripping and exiting. Number 4 the action scenes heart pounding. This is a not starsky and hutch type frill fest but a gritty down to earth realistic study of police and hospital practices and procedure's which still manages to entertain and excite. A thriller that you'll thrill to. A flawed but great movie. The car chase will leave you breathless .But then so will the whole film.
