फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
Michael Cimino's first film is an arresting fusion of early 70's road movie, 'Buddy' picture and 'planning a heist' action-thriller. That it manages to incorporate these elements into a poetic study of male friendship and the unquenchable restlessness at the heart of the great American pioneer/drifter mentality makes it a remarkable piece of work.
Cimino avoids the 'arty' distance of Terence Malick's 'Badlands' or the po-faced existentialism of Monte Hellman's 'Two Lane Black-top', but entertains the same thematic concerns within the framework of an accessible genre piece. From it's opening vista of a deserted wheat field, accompanied by the haunting strains of a single acoustic guitar, the film resonates with loneliness and loss. "Tell me where, Where does a fool go", sings Paul Williams, "when there's no-one left to listen, to a story without meaning, that no-body wants to hear?"
It is also funny and tender in it's observation of male camaraderie. Eastwood has never been more effective and affecting on-screen than in his interplay here with Jeff Bridges. We get a real sense of his character's connection to Bridges which makes the 'Midnight Cowboy'-ish ending genuinely moving.
Like all the great 70's movies, it has some wonderfully memorable scenes and dialogue: Dub Taylor ranting about the imminent collapse of the American economy at a nocturnal gas station; Bill Mckinney as a crazed speed-freak with a trunk full of white rabbits; Bridges encountering a hammer-wielding female motorcyclist, etc, etc.
Throw in some breath-taking scenic photography of Montana by Frank Stanley (prefiguring the use and role of landscape in relation to character later explored by Cimino in 'The Deer Hunter') and some beautifully understated character work in the smaller roles, and you have a fondly remembered minor classic ripe for some serious re-appraisal.

The film has a fairly leisurely pace to it, it's a bit of a slow burn for sure, but a very welcome one. There are so many interesting and enjoyable things in this film. It's part road movie and part heist film really. It's a fun film with Jeff Bridges playing a fairly eccentric and irreverent young character and Clint playing the more experienced and relaxed tough guy role. George Kennedy is also very good, and the film definitely finds it's share of funny moments. Michael Cimino was an interesting writer/director who in fact credits Clint Eastwood with giving him his directorial start with this film. Eastwood was apparently given the right by the studio to fire Cimino early on in the filming of this, but obviously never chose to do so. He co-wrote a couple of the earlier Dirty Harry scripts and then wrote and directed this film entirely. Cimino preferred to take his time in delivering his films, especially his early ones where he was given more control over them. In doing so, he really created a few films with some very interesting, well developed and not so standard characters. This is a very strong directorial debut. It really is too bad that Heaven's Gate was later considered a failure for him to some degree, as it seems after that film and he has talked about this, that he was no longer given the same kind of control over his filmmaking that he had previously enjoyed. I would've liked to see a lot more of his cinematic visions in full. Cimino was definitely an interesting, somewhat unique and patient artist. Hollywood studios on the other hand, sadly have rarely been patient with many artistic filmmakers.

Like a tribute to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot were a contemporary edition of the duo.
Thunderbolt (Clint Eastwood) met Lightfoot (Jeff Bridges) quite serendipitously. Thunderbolt was running from his would-be killer only to be saved by the fast driving Lightfoot. Their fortuitous meeting started a friendship between the two that was like journeyman and apprentice for thieves.
The young Jeff Bridges stole every scene he was in. He had the boyish young looks and the bubbly personality to go with them. Eastwood was... well he was Eastwood. You don't get much range from him. He's stoic, few-worded, and gruff. I think Eastwood is at his best when there's another star there for contrast. This crime and friendship story had some funny moments, intense moments, and even somber moments. The story and acting were great. This was a quality film.

This film has a few weak spots in the script, but I sure like it. A heist movie, with a mean Kennedy in it. Jeff and Clent never made another movie, and they could be like Redford and Newman; they have movie chemistry. TBS edits this film too much, its recomended watching on video. Worth renting 7/10.
This was Cimino's preparation to great epic and Oscarized "Deer Hunter" . Here Eastwood is a thief called Thunderbolt , he is on the run from his previous partners : George Kennedy, Geoffrey Lewis . Thunderbolt then joins joins up with a drifter nicknamed Lightfoot : Jeff Bridges . As Thunderbolt attempts to carry out a last job . Later on, Thunderbolt is captured by his former colleagues but he arranges to convince them he does not know where the money is from a prior hold-up . Lightfoot : Jeff Bridges, manages to convince them they should plan the same heist and rob the same government vault. Thunderbolt ..the man with the reputation. Lightfoot ...the kid who's about to make one ¡ . He has exactly seven minutes to get rich quick !
An amusing and fun film with likeable result and full of noisy action , pursuits , shootouts , car chases , humor , and a spectacular heist . Having written the script Cimino was given opportunity to direct it thanks to Clint Eastwood for whom he had formerly collaborated with John Milius in "Magnum Force" . All around give fine performances from Clint Eastwood as the expert robber believes he's made off with the loot from his last job and exceptional James Bridges as the good-natured colleague , as he steals the show by striking most of the sparks , being notable his scenes dressed in drag . Although Eastwood and Bridges are the central roles, here also appears George Kennedy and Geoffrey Lewis who fill their characters impressively , collectively overshadowing the stars , at times. As Clint Eastwod and Jeff Bridges are well accompanied by a top-notch support cast , such as : George Kennedy, Geoffrey Lewis , Roy Jenson, Bill McKinney , Dub Taylor , Vic Tayback , Gregory Walcott ,Catherine Bach and Gary Busey .
It contains colorful and adequate cinematography by Frank Stanley. As well as thrilling and atmospheric musical score by Dee Barton. The motion picture was well directed by Michael Cimino. This filmmaker wa a good craftsman who made few but very nice films with successes and flops, such as : Heaven's Gate , Year of the Dragon, The Sicilian , Desperate Hours , The Sunchaser and , of course , his biggest hit : The Deer Hunter . Rating : 7/10 . The flick will appeal to Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges fans .

- ट्रिवियाWhen writer and director Michael Cimino was discussing this movie with Jeff Bridges, he told Bridges it was his job to make Clint Eastwood laugh both on and off-camera, and he did.
- गूफ़After the crazy guy rolls the black Plymouth, there is clearly damage to the drivers side roof and the rear wheel on the driver side is bent at an extreme angle and the passenger side rear wheel completely flies off the axle. However, moments later when Thunderbolt and Lightfoot are going down the road, there are no signs of damage.

Young Boy: [Goody, with Red along, are in a tiny ice-cream vendor's truck] You're early. You're supposed to go down the next street first, then come up here.
Eddie Goody: Well, listen. While we're here, can I sell you anything?
Young Boy: No, I'm waiting for Judy Ann. They have a better flavor of pistachio.
