Grade: 3 out of 5 (Good)

Rationale: The best thing I can say is Bonnie and Clyde was solid. I don’t know if anything stood out as something I’ll remember a year or two after watching it, but that doesn’t mean it was forgettable either. Some plot points will stick with me, like the end scene were the law finally catches up to Bonnie and Clyde, but others, like how Clyde’s brother died and Bonnie’s “family reunion”, likely won’t. Worth watching once to say you have.
