Movie Reviews of Dersu Uzala
Movie Review: Dersu Uzala
Summary: 5 Stars
After a roughly ten-year decline in popularity and output (during which time Kurosawa attempted suicide), the master rose again in this stunning Russian-language film, co-produced by the Soviets. Based on a real-life adventurer's autobiographical journals and enhanced by the grizzled Munzak's poignant portrayal of the title character, this story of unlikely friendship and the passing of a way of life has a subtle beauty and near-mythic power. As always, Kurosawa's versatile talents are on full display in "Uzala," which won the Best Foreign Film Oscar in 1975.Movie Review: Anamorphic Widescreen DVD available on region 2 BUT DON'T BUY IT!
Summary: 5 Stars
WARNING WARNING!
Region 2 DVD is now available from amazon.co.uk with English subtitles.
However anamorphic, the picture quality is HORRIBLE, nearly unwatchable. Probably like the region 1.
The worst shimmering NTSC effects I have ever seen, colours change about 4 times per 2 seconds, from green to blue to cream to gray and again and again. Througout the film.
The DVD also claims to have subtitles in about 15 languages. IT DOESN'T!!
Only English.
Don't buy from this label, they are liars!
Movie Review: Dersu Uzala
Summary: 5 Stars
To me, one of Kurasowa's best. Wonderfully simple yet elegant story and character study set in a spectacular local with some of the best outdoor color cinematography ever. This is a story of adventure and friendship between two distinct cultures which based on recent events is even more meaningful today. The main character, Dersu Uzala, is wonderfully portrayed. This is simply a great and uplifting film. A must see for anyone who appreciates good story-telling, great filmmaking and of course, one of the best filmmakers of all time - Akira.Movie Review: The Alpha and the Omega of the life!
Summary: 5 Stars
This film is a real poem .academy Award Film winner for Best Foreign Film .
Kurosawa is great in the intimate details as well as the immensity of the infinity.
An old man and a young Soviet explorer .. A no time ode to the friendship.
A mythical film which deals with the unity of the man with the nature and a powerful testament to the real majesty of the life in which Karl Jaspers in his book Paidea named Aristos - the noble man according the Greek meaning.
Movie Review: Magnificent movie, excellent transfer to DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this movie, always have, but want to comment on the quality of the DVD. I had read an earlier viewer comment about poor quality and was nervous about the DVD. I could not have been happier. The letterbox format was perfect and the subtitles were in an easy on the eye yellow format in the black band. The picture quality was easily better than when I first saw this film in the 70's. Much praise to Kino for preserving a masterpiece.
