Great Movie, Terrible Transfer
This review refers to the Madacy release.Ten stars for the movie, minus eight stars for the transfer equals two stars for the DVD.As great as this movie is, the transfer to DVD is pathetic; I suggest turning it down. The beginning of the movie is the worst part, full of scratches and sound so poor it's difficult to understand the dialog. Unbelievably, it's not even presented in full frame. The left side of the credits (and presumably, the rest of the movie) are cut off.I suppose that in any industry or technology, there will be people in it just to make a buck. Movies such as this are a national treasure that deserves to be treated and immortalized as an art form. This is just the "make a buck" version.------------------------------------------I think this should be Madacy's tagline: "If it's from Madacy, you will be MAD when you SEE what you paid for."Before transferring a movie to video, these people would put a pristine print through a blender just to make sure their standards don't deviate.
