Editorial Reviews

Adapted from James Dickey's popular novel, John Boorman's 1972 movie recounts the grueling psychological and physical journey taken by four city slickers down a river in the backwoods of Georgia. At the behest of Iron John-esque Lewis (Burt Reynolds), the less adventuresome Ed (Jon Voight), Bobby (Ned Beatty), and Drew (Ronny Cox) agree to canoe down an uncharted section of the river before a dam project ruins the region. After warnings from the grimy, impoverished locals, and Drew's tuneful yet ominous "Dueling Banjos" encounter with a mute inbred boy, the four men embark on their trip, exulting in the beauty of nature and the initial thrill of the rapids. The next day, however, things begin to take a turn for the worse when Bobby and Ed decide to rest on shore after becoming separated from Lewis and Drew. Two rifle-wielding mountain men (Bill McKinney and Herbert "Cowboy" Coward) emerge from the woods, tying up Ed while one of them rapes Bobby and makes him "squeal like a pig." Lewis and Drew rescue them, but the attack irrevocably changes the tenor of the journey. As the river gets rougher and rougher, the men come to nightmarish grips with what it means to survive outside the safety net of "civilization." Lucia Bozzola, All Movie Guide

Puts a new spin on vacationby Anonymous

August 19, 2006: A fitting movie for the savage era of violence in Vietnam and the deepening cynicism of Nixon's White House. This is like the Heart of Darkness transplanted into Appalachia Georgia. Four city professionals are supposed to enjoy a nice casual vacation, but the locals have other ideas. The rape scene was barbaric, even by today's standards. A haunting look into the real meaning of man when confronted by evil circumstances. Unfortunately, when encountered by such a predicament, all men would react in the same vein. James Dickey hits to the heart of the savagery that lies in every human heart. A great movie in tanden with Peckinpah's Straw Dogs.
