Movie Reviews of Unforgiven [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: Second greatest western?
Summary: 5 Stars
I wrestle with my mind wondering whether this is the second greatest westerb ever made or just where it sits or whether one should divide quality ratings by time period.
I'll just go the simple route and say that in my opinion Clints movie, The Unforgiven, sits only behind Fords, The Searchers, as the greatest western ever brought to film.
I screwed up and bought the DVD after seeing the movie "in house". I should have forseen the development of Blu Ray and waited. Now I am fighting with myself over whether to spring for the bucks to buy the Blu Ray version as well. Might not. Might just wait until Dish brings it to Hi def television and trap in on Tivo.
Movie Review: Unforgiven
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great film that transfers to blu-ray excellently. The film itself is a wonderfully paced deconstruction of the Western genre. Eastwood as always simmers when he's on screen along with his frequent co-conspirator Morgan Freeman. Eastwood's character William Munny could easily have been an unpleasant and unlikeable character due to his shady past, but when pitched against Gene Hackman's excellent sherrif he shines as a beacon of morality.
The last twenty minutes of the film are absolutely excellent as Clint faces down the bad guys and allows the viewer to know exactly what kind of man they're rooting for.
A modern day masterpiece.
Movie Review: The greatest western I have ever seen!
Summary: 5 Stars
Unforgiven is not just the best western I have ever seen but may very well be one of the greatest American films of all time. Right up there with such classics as Citizen Kane and Casablanca. I owned the original release on DVD ( though not the speciel edition ) and it looked terrible on my new 55 inch HDTV even with the upconversion that comes with a Blu Ray player. So I purchased the bluray edition. WOW! The film looks great in 1080p. The colors are sharp and vibrant and the black levels are good. If you don't own this film get it.Movie Review: Blu-ray does it right
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a classic, and I can confidently say that when I watched it on blu-ray for the first time, it was like really seeing the movie for the first time - like all the other times their had been a blur filter between me and the movie and now, viewing it on blu-ray, that blur filter had been removed.
This should definately be a part of your collection, if for nothing else, just the quality of the video transfer demands it. Not to mention that it's an awesome movie!
Movie Review: In my Top Ten List
Summary: 5 Stars
Unforgiven is not just a Western movie. It is a statement. It is in my top ten list of all time great movies. This is Clint Eastwood at his best. The movie is an allegory, metaphor and masterpiece. The characterization of human failing, guilt, determination, cruelty,love, hate,and indifference in one movie is beyond measure. The blu-ray version captures the beauty of the country with magical sunsets amidst a story of revenge and ultimately a quest for forgiveness.
