The movie, of course, is great. The video quality is not so awesome for a Blu-Ray disc, though -- it's 10-15mbps MPEG-2.
"Beautiful but disappointing"

The film itself is worthy of a very strong five-star rating, but since this Blu-Ray offers nothing beyond the film itself, my rating reflects my disappointment.
While it's fantastic to have one of my favorite films of all time in high definition at last, the extras here are non-existent. Not only did they not do anything special for the Blu-Ray, they didn't even port over the extras from the MGM Special Edition DVD that came out a few years ago, and there's some excellent stuff on that DVD.
Shame on Fox/MGM for this inexcusably-lacking release.

What can I say about this suspense thriller that hasn't been said before? The twists and turns abound until the final minutes of the movie. "And just like that, he's gone." Excellent, tour-de-force performances from everyone. SPOILER WARNING!!! Pay attention to Verbal (Kevin Spacey) in the scene where Kujan (Chazz Palminteri) is yelling at him. SPOILER OVER!!! My only gripe is that Christopher McQuarrie didn't appear in any of the featurettes located on the flip side of the disc (though he briefly appears in the introduction to one of the featurettes). I highly recommend this movie. You'll be surprised. The movie is also very well-written by Christopher McQuarrie and expertly directed by Bryan Singer (both of them would reunite to, respectively, co-write [with Nathan Alexander] and direct "Valkyrie"; please see my review on that equally excellent movie). This movie should have been rated PG-13 for violence and some language.

I have found it is the only way to go - should you need the latest CD, video, hard to find vintage works either as a gift or for your own collection there is no easier or faster way then Amazon! Thank you.
"Great movie, but don't buy until they add the extras"

A couple of years ago I bought a deluxe DVD of this amazing movie. None of the extras that were included on that DVD are included on the Blu-Ray; in fact, the only extra is a theatrical trailer. I wish that I had waited for a better edition. Anyway, I'll hold on to my DVD.
"This movie is a great movie made better by blu-ray"

I thought the movie was very good. The story was really interesting, and the acting was well done. My only point of criticism is I don't know if this movie has to be seen on blu-ray. I've always tried to buy newer, more graphically pleasing movies on blu-ray to take a better advantage of hi-definition. I decided to give this a try and I was very impressed, I thought it was totally worth it and I felt the whole experience was made better by it. This was a good purchase.
