Agreed. It's a masterpiece.

…re that, under its cliches, still feels new and shocking, with most every element fitting together. There have been more violent, far grosser, movies than The Wild Bunch, but its view of the human capacity for violence, and its price, remains provocative and disturbing in ways still not seen. An endless parade of directors has tried to follow Peckinpah, but not one has come close.
L. Q. Jones, Sam Peckinpah, and “the Wild Bunch.”

Agreed. It's a masterpiece. I saw this in 35mm during the mid 1990s, when it was fully restored (along with the Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid restoration, which I saw around the same time). :)
