Thread: The Bridge on the River Kwai Review

bridgekwai23712.jpg

Easily one of the greatest films ever made, with a crazed Colonel Nicholson believing he's building a bridge that will stand for his country's pride, but committing treason in the process.

A truly remarkable transfer, loaded with lush detail, superlative black levels, rich color, and barely an ounce of damage. Compression is visible at times, but typically resolves the grain structure.

Crisp audio that makes the score seem modern, and the dialogue like it's right there with you. A natural stereo split is evident, if not too powerful, while the surrounds are left alone, a benefit.

A great documentary, some unique featurettes, appreciation, and pop-up trivia track are included.

Very cool. I'd like to get this.

This is a classic movie and I agree probably one of the greatest films of all times.

Bought!

oohhh. When will you get to watch it? I wanna know what you think.

It arrived today, so pretty much any time. Maybe I'll watch it while I'm off this week. Unlike Matt, I'm not a very good movie reviewer, but I can tell you what I think, fwiw.

haha - I'm not either. I'm just curious what you think about the picture quality and all that good stuff.

Okay. I'll do what I can.

Love this one. Ty Matt.

You don't have to be "good," per se or I wouldn't be doing this. As long as you know what you like, you can handle it. Seeing what others think is one of the best parts... when they agree with me.
