Rating:  - Charles in charge!
This is Charles Bronson at his best. On the top. Bronson at the top of his game with "Breakout". This film also features: Robert Duvall and Randy Quaid. And you can all ways count on the sleazy Sheree North to throw in a little T&A fun too! I love this film.
Rating: - Action and fast paced
Breakout
A must buy for Charles Bronson fans. His real wife, Jill Ireland, is just so beautiful. Robert Duvall, Sheree North, and Randy Quaid greatly support Bronson in this "breakout" tale of Bronson and company rescuing Duvall from a Mexican jail, for a crime he did not commit.
There is action, humor, action, and great tension and drama in this movie.
Rating:  - The jovial side of Bronson?
This isn't the best Charles Bronson film but it isn't terrible either. The plot is simple Jill Ireland pays Charles Bronson to save her husband played by Robert Duvall from a Mexican prison. It also needs to be noted that Robert Duvall's character was framed for murder.

Rating: - Action-packed Bronson time-filler
Typical Bronson actioner where he plays a gun for hire using a helicopter to get American businessman, Robert Duvall, out of a Mexican prison. Randy Quaid plays Bronson's assistant, and Bronson's then real-life wife, Jill Ireland, plays the wife of Duvall desperate to get her husband out. Director Tom Gries also directed the highly acclaimed western, "Will Penny" in 1968.
Made in 1975, this was a signature Bronson film that unfortunately typecast this highly talented actor who was unusually ... Read More
Rating: - LIFE IMITATING ART
When BREAKOUT was released in 1975, it was shown at Jackson State Prison (Michigan). Several days later, someone tried to break an inmate out of the prison using a helicopter. Unlike the film it failed. But another classic example of life imitating art. The prisoners would have been better off trying to get an imitation of Sheree North in (the)black lingerie (sequence). BREAKOUT is yet again another enjoyable Bronson time waster, not of the caliber of his work with Michael Winner, but still worth a look. ... Read More
