The Baltimore Bullet is a 1980 American comedy film based on the adventures of two pool hustlers in the United States.

It was directed by Robert Ellis Miller and starred James Coburn, Omar Sharif, Bruce Boxleitner and Ronee Blakley. The screenplay was written by film and stage dancer John Brascia, from a story by Brascia and Robert Vincent O'Neil. Brascia also produced the film. It was one of Coburn's last starring roles.[1]

Various real-life notable professional players made cameo appearances, including Lou Butera, Willie Mosconi,[2] Steve Mizerak, Mike Sigel and Jimmy Mataya.[3]

As of January 2009, the film has been released on (now out-of-print) NTSC VHS video tape, and a Region-2 (European, PAL-format) DVD, but is not presently available in other DVD regions.
