Slaughterhouse Five (1972)


A drama directed by George Roy Hill.
A man becomes "unstuck in time" and experiences scenes from his life in no coherent order. He is in World War 2, a rich businessman and an alien abductee living on the planet Tralfamador.
This film looks and sounds good and it seemed like a good idea until I finished watching it. Because of the incoherent order of events, the plot suffers greatly. Billy and Spot's characters are developed very well, so I'm rating it o.k.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)


A western directed by George Roy Hill.
A pair of outlaws in the old west get into trouble and decide to go to Boliva where they get into more trouble.
The audio was o.k. the video was good.
This is a classic movie and I thought it was o.k. The bicycle scene was cool and the segue "old photos" parts fit very well. There was enough action, but it didn't go that extra step that would have made it a good movie.
