| HD DVD Description Peter Yates's 1968 cop drama has its existentialist pretensions, but there is something seductive about its strained seriousness and Steve McQueen's intentionally stoic performance as a San Francisco police detective on the trail of a murderer. A couple of key action sequences boost the film's stature, the most memorable of which is a vertiginous car chase that Yates almost approaches as a dance. Jacqueline Bisset provides window dressing as Bullitt's girlfriend--worried about how much his job strips away his humanity--and Robert Vaughan is almost reptilian as an opportunistic politician. --Tom Keogh |

Wish I still had my Mustang I watched this in the theater when it came out many years ago. I had forgotten much of the story but not the car chase...Glad to have the high def added to my collection.
Sweet film, Good Transfer I've always been a fan of Steve Mcqueen, him and Paul newman when i was growing up. I'm 23 now and i couldnt be happier that they put this film out on HD DVD. Its not the greatest transfer but for it being as old as it is, its pretty freakin sweet man. I also purchased the Getaway too and that was pretty cool stuff as well. Anyway if you love this film and Steve Mcqueen buy this movie on HD.
Bullitt = Bad Not to offend anyone who liked this film, but I simply couldn't find anything inherently good about it. Except for the car chase, but then again, couldn't the two villains have had some sort of dialog! For the entire car chase the two don't utter a word! Unbelievable.
Bad script and wooden acting = bad movie.
The movie came out in '68, one year after I was born and I had always heard great things about the chase scene, but to me this alone doesn't warrant purchasing this film. Sorry.
Should have bought the SD-DVD! I should add that the transfer was pretty good. |
