Movie Reviews of Bustin' Loose
Movie Review: Keep your Goodtimes version (the first release of this DVD)
Summary: 4 Stars
The Goodtimes version is released in the "full screen" version. This newer re-issue is said to be the "widescreen" version (1.85). But, here's what you really get:
I've watched them both, side by side. You don't get the original theatrical widescreen version. This newer release is the "fullscreen" version (where the sides are already cut off) and now with the top and bottom cut off to create a "simulated" widescreen version. So, this film has never yet been released on DVD in the true original theatrical widescreen version. Now, what this version gives you is like a small box view from the middle of the whole intended frame. The sides and the top and bottom cut off.
Summary of Bustin' Loose
No Description Available.Genre: Feature Film-Comedy
Rating: R
Release Date: 22-AUG-2006
Media Type: DVD
Of all the films in which Richard Pryor was the main star in the 1970s and 1980s, this was one of the only ones to come close to capturing his impishly mercurial stage presence as a standup comedian--and also to aspire to coherency, perhaps because it was cowritten by Pryor and award-winning playwright Lonne Elder III. Pryor plays an ex-convict who gets strong-armed into helping a schoolteacher (Cicely Tyson) drive a busload of physically and emotionally handicapped children across the country. Though there is the kind of irascible adult-cute kid interplay you would expect, Pryor makes it work, even as he finds the heart in a ne'er-do-well who discovers a talent for caring for others. Watch for the scene in which Pryor finds himself face to face with a hooded group of Klansmen and comically finesses the situation. --Marshall Fine
