Empty, boring and shallow.
Waaay too calm, but Robert Duvall’s performance is reliable as always.
Karen Black’s part was pointless.
Weak script/story
Good chemistry between Robert Duvall and Jon Don Baker.
2.5/5 but an extra 0.5 for the GOAT Duvall. RIP

Shockingly low viewer count. Robert Duvall plays a professional thief, same vein as De Niro in Heat and Caan in Thief. Although I love Mr. Duvall, he doesn’t outshine the only other 2 I could think of, he does a swell job tho. As pointed out by others the most interesting part is this professional thief take on the mob head on and the mobs inability to do anything about it. Also, Duvall and Joe Don Baker were such great besties, dope. I really liked this movie, but I liked Thief more, which I gave a 4/5, so I’ll give The Outfit a 3.5/5.

Turned it off after about 20mins, doubt I will go back to it; it’s very 70’s and not the good kind.
