Movie Reviews of Mutiny on the Bounty (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Movie Review: Agree With Others Here; It's A Fine Film
Summary: 4 Stars
I wonder if they made more three-hour-plus films in the 1960s than any other decade? It seems that way. Here is another one. This also is a re-make from a 1935 version of the famous story
I liked this 'Mutiny On The Bounty' better than the national critics did, who got annoyed at Marlon Brando's British accent. I found nothing wrong with it. In fact, Brando gave a solid performance. I'm glad to see fellow Amazon reviewers agreeing with me; it's an underrated film. (Note: I actually have a "deluxe widescreen" VHS of this film, which isn't even listed here.)
Trevor Howard was convincing as the sadistic "Captain Bligh" and Tarita was fair as the love interest "Maimiti." The cinematography might have been the best feature of the film, a definite movie for widescreen as a lot of these mid '50s-to-mid '60s films were. There are some beautiful shots in here, beginning with those Tahiti sunsets. The color in this movie is magnificent.
The adventure, acting and photography were all top-notch and the three hours went by fairly fast.
Summary of Mutiny on the Bounty (Two-Disc Special Edition)
The conflict between tyrannical captain bligh & the conscientious fletcher christian eventually forces christian to mutiny in this high seas adventure. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 11/07/2006 Starring: Marlon Brando Richard Harris Run time: 185 minutesJust sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a fateful trip.... Based on the classic novel by Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall, this magnificently-photographed three-hour tour charts the tortuous and tragic course of the Bounty, which, in 1787, sailed from England to Tahiti on a "grocer's errand" to transplant breadfruit plants in Jamaica. As the voyage progresses, tensions mount between the heartless disciplinarian Captain Bligh (a commanding Trevor Howard) and his chief officer, Fletcher Christian (Marlon Brando), who does not subscribe to Bligh's philosophy that cruelty with cause is not cruelty. Richard Harris costars as John Mills, an abused crewmember who plants the seeds of treason against Bligh. Mutiny on the Bounty is a see-worthy saga that boasts a provocative Brando performance (his Christian is initially so foppish he makes Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow look like Errol Flynn in The Sea Hawk) and great action set pieces (a raging storm as the Bounty attempts to navigate Cape Horn). And in how many did this film inspire dreams of sailing away to Tahiti? Brando was among them. He married his ravishing costar Tarita, and later bought himself a French Polynesian island. This "Special Edition" replicates the film's original prestigious road show presentation, complete with Overture, Intermission, Entr'acte, and Exit music. --Donald Liebenson
