Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 04/11/2006 Run time: 117 minutes Rating: R

Amazon.com essential video:
Robert Redford and Sydney Pollack continued their longtime collaboration (the actor and director have worked together on Jeremiah Johnson, The Way We Were, The Electric Horseman, and Out of Africa, among other films) with this taut spy drama. Redford plays a reader for U.S. intelligence who becomes a hunted man after he is not among the victims of a mass murder of his colleagues. Faye Dunaway does solid work as the frightened and mystified woman whom he forces to conceal him, and Max von Sydow is appropriately cool as a professional assassin. That same, sustained tone of danger and expectation that made Pollack's The Firm so much fun can be found in this 1975 thriller, albeit with an appropriate dose of post-Watergate paranoia. --Tom Keogh




Rating: - Fun thriller with an impressive supporting cast
Joseph Turner (Robert Redford once again as the all-American) gets to read for a living, analyzing texts for the CIA through the cover of the "American Literary Historical Society." When it's his turn to go out for everybody's lunch, he comes back to find them all dead.

From then on, Turner (code name "Condor") is on the run -- from the killers and from the government -- with only photographer Kathy (striking Faye Dunaway) his only, albeit reluctant, ally.

Rating: - Great movie
This is a great movie. I had it on VHS, but wanted to have it on DVD. Robert Redford is great in it, but he is great in most every movie. Enjoy

Rating: - My favorite movie by Robert Redford
Very interesting story. Superb jazz music score, and an intriguing series of events leading to an unpredictable ending. As close to edge-of-your-seat as you can get with a movie. Well acted and directed. Superb production. Perhaps the best movie ever done by Robert Redford. Faye Dunaway added immeasurably to this performance.

I strongly recommend purchase of this movie. No Robert Redford collection is complete - or should even be started, without Three Days of the Condor.

Rating: - Great thriller, OK DVD
Sorry- are we reviewing the film or the DVD of the film? Unarguably a classic- the dvd I have is sad with nary a bonus feature. This movie could use a DVD do-over to take advantage of its continued popularity.

Rating: - After a remarkable tension build-up, it too light an ending
***** Contains spoiler ******
It's a work which has both very good and mediocre qualities. The build-up of the plot is just smashing. With well-paced action and competent acting, it's a remarkable work to watch.
Problem first erupts little when Redford kidnaps the lady. It is very difficult to believe that a lady would like to be part of the deadly problem Redford is in for just one night charm, no matter how lonely she is.
But the script does not do justice to itself when it converts ... Read More
