Movie Reviews of The Getaway (1972) [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: SHEER DELIGHT!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Steve McQueen and Sam Pekinpah at the top of their game in this unusual and creative genre film. The 1080 transfer is sparkling! I've always loved this film but seeing it this way is like seeing it for the first time, only better!! The other positive reviews pretty much nail it. In this DVD you get marvelous extras including the original score from Jerry Fielding which was rejected by McQueen at the last minute! I was shocked to hear this. The score from Quincy Jones is one of my favorite things about the film. I am a big Fielding fan and I'm happy to see it get released here! You won't be disappointed with this disc!!!! *****

Movie Review: Looks much better than the original... still
Summary: 5 Stars

This version looks much better than the original DVD. However, it shows it is an old movie and this has much more to do with the original equipment and filming techniques than with digital format. If you are a Steve McQueen fan as I am, do not hesitate. Buy it. If you're not, stick with the old standard or special edition versions.

Movie Review: The Getaway
Summary: 5 Stars

The Wild Bunch and Bullit is what people recognize when you bring up one of the coolest cats around, Steve Mcqueen. The Getaway, at least in my opinion is Steve Mcqueen greatest film, in a lot of ways it's Sam peckinpahs greatest modern film

Movie Review: Great movie. Great transfer
Summary: 5 Stars

This review is for the Blu-Ray version of this film. I really like this film and the transfer is the best I have seen. I had the Beta and Laser disc versions and this one looks wonderful.
