My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Three Days of the Condor (1975)


I’ve been wanting to see this film for some time. Robert Redford plays a CIA bookworm on the run from a team of hitmen. As he uncovers the government conspiracy he’s caught in, he takes a young woman on her way home hostage played by Faye Dunway. With a director like Sydney Pollack I was expecting a much more exciting film. But instead of watching a ‘70s version of The Firm I saw a cloak and dagger version of The Way We Were. I liked the espionage elements a lot but the love story was way too cheesy for my liking. Grade: C
