If you're ever wondering why Steve McQueen is called the "King of Cool", rent this movie and find out. McQueen is never bad and in my opinion this is one of his better roles just because he brings such humanity to the character who is really a pretty bad guy. Here he plays Doc McCoy, a bank robber doing time until a deal is brokered that gains him his early release. His price in the deal is to plan another bank heist using a new and unknown team.
This may not have been Sam Peckinpah's best movie that he's directed, but it is a great film nonetheless.
