The last time I watched "The Reivers" I thought it was okay. Today I watched it and I enjoyed it more. There is a lot of good stuff in this movie. It has a nice look and it tells its story at a nice pace. It has a very good cast but I have to admit I don't enjoy Steve McQueen as much as I used to. I grew up a big fan of McQueen but as I watch him now the bloom is off the rose. I often find McQueen as too self conscious a performer. Sometimes I see McQueen's ego more than I see a character. That said, there is a lot to like in "The Reivers". If I keep watching it, I might actually become a fan of it some day. Honorable mention: a dreamy Sharon Farrell.
