About this movie

Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman ("Rain Man," "Tootsie") and Steve McQueen ("The Getaway," "Bullitt") star in this superb but brutal prison film about two convicts on Devil's Island and one's determination to escape, despite the odds. One of the year's top box-office hits!

Ratings and reviews

Two great actors one superb film that is one of the best for both, not their best but one of their best. One of the very few films I rate at 10★'s! Mic Pete • Cl;-)~™

Awesome movie, definitely mcqueens best performance. Story differs quite alot from the original book, that this story is based on. Such a shame, cause i think the book is better.

An absoulte powerful classic. Papillon is a story that is thrilling, exposes evil so good, and its finally breathtaking. A new favorite classic film of mine.
