The Wild Bunch
"If they move, Kill em" - Pike
Beautifully shot with virtuoso editing and gritty performances. This is Director Sam Peckinpah’s (Straw Dogs, The Getaway) carnage filled love letter to tough hombres of the past that refused to bow to technology or abide laws penned by corrupt politicians.
Shocking audiences in 1969 more used to bloodless bullet wounds, onscreen fist fights for fun and clear cut good guys and bad guys. The Wild Bunch redefined the genre, flesh flies continuing the revolution to depict more realistic, brutal combat and authentic consequences.

I actually hate to admit this, but I've never seen The Wild Bunch! I know I know, it''s a classic, but for some strange reason I just never got around to watching it!
The Unforgiven however, was a masterpiece...I thought Hackman was pure evil... and pure genius!
Now I'll have to go rent The Wild Bunch just based on your review...
Take care,
Nick

If you click on the title in the first paragraph you can read more detailed review I did months ago.
The DVD edition is spectacular, but seeing on the bigscreen is essential to a first timer.
Would love to here youre thoughts once you watch it.
