The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)

Rate: 6
Viewed: 7/05

7/05: I had high expectations for The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, but it's a disappointing film.

It starts off strong but falters a lot during the final hour due to overlong obstacles with the Mexicans getting in the way. I dislike Humphrey Bogart's character the most although I'll never say that for him in most films. Walter Huston's Oscar-winning performance is decent but isn't what I call "awesome."

All in all, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre got tons of praise, but the movie didn't do anything for me.
