  1.  Outstanding in Every Way!

    Posted: 

    This was one of the first Blu-ray movies I bought and I have to say I was absolutely blown away by the experience. Having already owned this film on dvd I couldn't believe the difference in quality in the Blu-ray version. I was able to pick out details I could never have done before. You feel as though you are actually there.

    Watching this on a 52" LCD with 1000W surround sound is a joy. The picture and sound quality are breathtaking.

    Trust me, the quality of this Blu-ray dvd is the one all others should be compared to. I have bought about a dozen Blu-ray films since and seen numerous ones in stores and none of them beat this.

    I'd thoroughly recommend buying this even if you own it on normal dvd.

  2.  5 Star Film Let Down by No Extras!

    Posted: 

    Let me start by saying that this is my all time favourite movie. I can't recommend this film enough and if you haven't seen it yet what better way than on Blu-Ray.

    However, I have to admit to be being a little disappointed with the picture quality but perhaps my expectations were just too high. Having owned the Special Edition dvd for a while I was expecting the film to really jump out at me like it did on other Blu-Ray discs I'd bought (like Top Gun for example) but it didn't. All of the characters look great but it's almost like they didn't bother with the background stuff. I must stress that it is superior to the normal dvd but, as I said, perhaps my expectations were too high.

    The lack of extras is extremely disappointing especially considering the Special Edition dvd was packed with some great interviews, deleted scenes, hilarious outtakes and why they are excluded on the Blu-Ray disc is as much of a mystery as it is a scandal.

    Picture Quality: 8/10
    Sound Quality: 9/10
    Extras: 0/10
    Film: 10/10

    Overall I don't regret buying this as it is still superior in picture and sound than normal dvd but mainly because it's my favourite film. If you like extras with your disc then buy the Special Edition dvd.
