Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A horse ride through hell
In the 1970s when westerns were typically cynical, dark and violent, Bite the Bullet went for a more traditional movie, and it works because when it comes right down to it, it's a good story. In the early 1900s, saddle tramp Sam Clayton is out of work after delivering a horse to the start point of a 700-mile horse race. At first, Clayton wants none of the race, but comes around and ends up joining the competition. One of nine riders, Clayton sets off through hellish terrain with little water. ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This item is *still* not widescreen
Despite the description given, this DVD does NOT have a wdescreen version on it. Only the opening credits and a few following scenes are in widescreen. The film then changes to full screen. Interestingly the ending also seems to have been truncated/cut off, e.g., not even "The End" apppears at the conclusion!

For what it may be worth, this film, especially the desert scenes, reminds me of "Hidalgo" and might even have served as the inspiration for that film. It has an excellent 5-Star ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Widescreen format NOT included
As another customer has stated, this version does NOT include the widescreen format. I have asked Amazon to change their Web page showing the format but please be aware before you buy.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Hackman rules.
Good little action piece. Nice ensemble cast. It's a little dated as far as effects and cinematography go, but the acting and unfettered plot make up for that. Gene Hackman (as always) adds a depth and weight to a character that could otherwise be your cliched hero of films today. Some minor social commentary and emotional content make this film a little more poignant than others of it's ilk. Precursor to big budget action flicks of today that lack most of these elements. Very 70's in style and feel.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - "Horse don't give a damn who wins the race. Me either."
If "Bite the Bullet" sentimentalizes the independence and force of ordinary men without glamor who have to struggle for a prize in a hard, bitter, and lonely environment, it also examines the cruel or inhumane treatment often inflicted on animals...

"Bite the Bullet" is an all-star Western about a 700-mile horse race that takes place in the middle of 'Nowhere, USA' at the turn of the last century, for a chance to win the grand prize of $2000...

At the head of the line is Gene ... Read More
