Clevercell Very disappointing...
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
adonis98-743-186503 Two grifters named Johnny and Henry team up to pull off the ultimate con. The Sting will definitely sting you with it's boredom since not even Robert Redford and Paul Newman can't save it from falling apart. The movie is also a different of alot of different genres like comedy and crime and neither good on either sides of the same coin plus way to long and slow paced that makes the experience even worse and perhaps not a movie so special to deserve an 8.3/10 and definitely not a movie that also does not deserve to be on the top films of all time... (0/10)
thedarkknight-99999 Funny, delightful, witty, thought-provoking, and aware of everything it's up to. The Sting is a stylish crime film that is for everyone. And, of course, Redford and Newman shine. It's just a bit convoluted in the first 20 minutes. (9/10)
Sameir Ali The movie begins with an interesting cheating on the street. This was really jaw dropping. This trend continues throughout the movie. In fact, you cannot trust on any person. Anything can be fraud. This makes the movie very interesting. The climax was so superb. Not writing much about the plot, it may spoil your viewing experience.One of the best movies with a lot of twists and turns. The movie is among the top list for no doubt. A well made movie of 70's. Technical perfection is another plus point of the film. It was nominated for 10 Oscars and won 7.A must watch movie. Highly recommended.#KiduMovie
Hitchcoc For a while, one needs a scorecard to keep track of all the players. As Redford and Neuman light up the screen, we have an incredible intertwining of characters and motivations playing off each other, leading to the final con. What works is that we have a simple motivation that sets it all up. That is the murder of a friend. All else is directed at that central issue. Soon, the masters of the Sting begin to set up the dominoes, They match bad guys against bad guys, create artificial settings, maneuver things in an orchestrated way. Not everything works perfectly. There are some unexpected pitfalls, including a near-fatal mistake, but the beauty is that these villains are almost excited to be separated from their money. One of the really bright spots of the 1970's.
