Bullitt
Buckle up for one of the most exciting thrillers of the 1960s, Peter Yates’ sizzling San Francisco treat Bullitt. When a mob informant is assassinated while in police protection, Steve McQueen’s eponymous detective will have to navigate a complicated maze of cops, crooks, politicians and deadly double-crosses to unravel the mysteries of the killing. McQueen crackles with cool in one of his best roles, while the iconic high-speed car chase through the streets of SF may be the apex of action cinema.
“It is simply one of the most exciting and intelligent action films in years, probably the best good-cop film we can expect to encounter.” – The Hollywood Reporter
“McQueen is great in Bullitt, and the movie is great, because director Peter Yates understands the McQueen image and works within it. He winds up with about the best action movie of recent years.” – Roger Ebert
