Movie Reviews of The Sound of Music (Two-Disc 40th Anniversary Special Edition)
Movie Review: Review of Sound of Music Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
The movie is postively great.
I have seen this classic many times over the years, but never tire of watching it again.
Movie Review: The Best Family Musical Ever! Still Enjoyable for Today's Audiences!
Summary: 4 Stars
When it comes to family-oriented entertainment and especially musicals, it's hard to do better than "The Sound of Music". Not only is the plot very compelling and believable but the songs are simply inspired classics and standards that will continue to be sung many many years from now. This represents Rodgers and Hammerstein at the top of their creative powers and this together with "Oklahoma" represent my favourite musicals of all time.
This dvd version is the full-screen one and after viewing this a couple of times I can't help but feel that I should have gotten the widescreen version instead although as far as full-screen versions go, this is not bad. The picture quality is well restored although not perfect as not every frame is without some form of minor defect but this is not enough to detract from your viewing enjoyment. The sound quality is very good though coming in Dolby Digital 4.1 Surround format. There are no Bonus features of note such as documentaries etc which is disappointing but here's hoping the upcoming Blu-ray version improves upon the picture, sound and bonus features aspects enough for us to shout about.
As far as standard full-screen version dvds go though, this version suffices as a must have in any musical fan's dvd library although you may want to wait for the Blu-ray version if you are intending to upgrade any time soon.
Movie Review: Music to My Eyes
Summary: 5 Stars
Everyone knows how popular this movie is but I had no idea after 30 years how much I would love it. My mother insisted I see it as a teenager and I wanted no part of it. As an adult with girls 3 and 6, we are enchanted with this movie and watch it any chance we get. It is always the first request on movie night for my girls. Everytime I watch this film I appreciate it in a new way.The story is lovely and apparently real. The dialog is witty and meaningful.The songs are catchy and the scenery will mesmerize you. It has all the elements and twists in our own lives. This film is poetry in motion-picture!-And the sound track! It is just a must for any personal collection. Movie Review: Fun and Beautiful
Summary: 5 Stars
I always liked this movie because of the beautiful music and scenery and now I like it even more because they've included a documentary movie of the real story with real people. Very impressed. DVD quality is top.Movie Review: A great film for all.
Summary: 5 Stars
Whether young or old, it's a film that captures you right from the very beginning. The songs are sung and performed well, woven into the story almost effortlessly it seems. You'll want to sing and watch it over & over again.
