What Did Happen On The Cahulawassee River?
Four ordinary men in two canoes navigated a river they only know as a line on a map, taking on a wilderness they only think they understand.
Deliverence, based by James Dickey on his novel, surges with the urgency of masterful storytelling, like Georgia's Chattooga River along which it was shot. Equally masterful is the portrayal of each man's change of character under stress, harrowingly enacted by award winners Jon Voight, Burt Reynolds, Ned Beatty and Ronny Cox. Director John Boorman sets us on the knife-edge of survival - and draws us in with the irresistable force of a raging current.

Take a ride down the river - 3.75 out of 5 (6/27/2000)
Everybody knows those first chords of Dueling Banjos, the song that the film "Deliverance" made into a hit. Everybody also knows the most famous scenes of the film that made it such a long-standing favorite.
Based on a best selling novel by James Dickey, "Deliverance" started a trend that would go on for years in Hollywood. They let the writer of the film write the script. John Boorman was brought in to direct and he did a masterful job in delivering a taut, gripping thriller.

"Deliverance" was the first of its kind. - 4.5 out of 5 (2/6/2001)
"Deliverance" was a fore runner in action nature adventure, there have been hundreds since but nothing like the original. Seeing Burt Reynolds, Jon Voigt, and Ned Beatty in their early 30's is a major part of the movie. Interesting also is the "politically incorrect" climate when 4 city slickers encounter the natives in the mountains of Georgia. Never a dull moment from start to finish.
