Excellente'!!
As you should first know, MOONSTRUCK is one of my ALL-TIME favorite movies. I love this film, I have since the first time I saw it (last November) and I was deeply disapointed when I came here to amazon to buy it and found that MGM had this film on a pan-scan ONLY DVD. I was MAD (I don't mind fullscreen, as long as the director approves or the DVD has both that and WIDESCREEN) so I checked on the MGM website to see if they had a new DVD release coming. To my surprise and delight, they were in the process of printing at that time. So I waited and waited, and (believe it or not) I FORGOT about the DVD all together! Then, earlier my mom (who also loves this film) surprised me when she produced it out of her shopping bag, THEN I REMEMBERED! I had doubts as to the quality of this DVD (as MGM and SONY haven't blended very well in the past) but all of my fears were put asunder when I began watching this film. The quality is absolutely wonderful! I have not seen the older version, so I can't compare, but I am sure that this is a vast improvement over it (being as I am very familiar with MGM's old DVDs). There is no edge enhancement AT ALL (on my DVD player), which is the biggest turn-off for me when it comes to DVD quality; NO artifacting or compression; and perfect colors. Yep, this is one of the best DVDs I've seen in a while, but I have ONE complaint: the audio could be a little better. All in All, even if you own the old DVD, buy this one, NOW!(P.S.- if you are wondering why I still live with my mother, I'm only 14.)
