Blog Pick Week #22


   Here at Webmoviepick, we are a fan of the classics. They are the films that have established the industry into what it is today. This week our pick is one of these classic films. The pick of the week is the 1968 Academy Award winning movie "Bullitt".
   "Bullitt" stars the late great Steve McQueen, as Frank Bullitt, a San Francisco cop. Frank is sent to protect a star witness in a major case. Despite his professional protection, Frank struggles with securing his safety, when someone gets through and compromises his defense. Who could have been so skilled to accomplish this feet? The answer is half the battle.
   From the opening credits, into the exhilarating car chase scene, "Bullitt" drives it home. Besides the performance by Steve McQueen, "Bullitt" won the Academy Award for editing and after watching this movie you can see for yourself why it did.
   Don't think this was a film with lame cheesy effects and obvious phony stunts. "Bullitt" was a well made and entertaining film. Steve McQueen apparently doing most, but not all of the stunts himself, including the classic car chase scene. This is a movie for most to enjoy, so this week strap in and watch "Bullitt". Until next week happy viewing.
