Full Metal Jacket (Deluxe Edition) [Blu-ray] description
Stanley Kubrick's 1987, penultimate film seemed to a lot of people to be contrived and out of touch with the '80s vogue for such intensely realistic portrayals of the Vietnam War as Platoon and The Deer Hunter. Certainly, Kubrick gave audiences plenty of reason to wonder why he made the film at all: essentially a two-part drama that be ... review details

Blu-ray MUCH better than DVD version
|
My comments only concern the DVD versus Blu-ray issue.
I have an older version of the DVD (Stanley Kubrick Collection, white box) and the deluxe Blu-ray version. My experience has been that DVDs mastered in high definition look identical to the Blu-ray version (either on a Blu-Ray player or an upconvert DVD player). In this case, the Blu-ray version is MUCH better. The differece is much like the samples used in stores to show the difference betwee regular and high definition--you know, grainy on one side sharp on the other.
Also, the DVD version is full frame and the Blu-ray version is widescreen. What's odd, however, is that to make the widescreen version the top and bottom of the full screen version were chopped off--sort of the opposite of how widescreen movies are trimmed for full screen. Even so, I carefully watched and it didn't seem to matter. There were still a few grainy scenes (mostly combat scenes), but these were still much better than the DVD version.
Another big plus is that the Blu-ray version has special features (a commentary track,a behind the scenes featurette, and the trailer), but the DVD only has the trailer.
Unlike some Blu-ray versions, this one was definitely worth the upgrade. |
