Now, to be fair, I have been a fan of this movie for a very long time. I have purchased the VHS version, as well as any DVD release that has come out (hello to redundancy in special features and the sort). When I heard that this was coming to Blu-Ray, I immediately pre-ordered it. My opinions may be bias because of enjoying the movie too much, so I will try to keep it in perspective.
Video Quality: 4/5
The Princess Bride is showing its age as far as production values go, but this shouldn't sway anyone from seeing this movie. The Blu-Ray version has been wonderfully remastered in 1080P. This is most noticeable with the color palette, as all the colors are vibrant. The picture is crisp, with the original film grain still in tact. You will notice the best quality during the scenes with the Dread Pirate Roberts on his quest to find the Princess. Overall, the picture looks nice for being 22 years old, a true testament to how good Blu-Ray can make any movie look.
Audio Quality: 5/5
The soundtrack in it's TrueHD quality is great. Very clear and no signs of fuzz anywhere. The 5.1 audio track is truly 5.1 as every channel receives the correct sound and really enhances the quality of the movie experience.
Extras: 3/5
As mentioned above, all the extras are on older discs. The documentary is great, and the commentary with Rob Reiner and William Goldman is interesting (if you're into that kind of thing). The Biggest extra, however, is the DVD version of the movie has been bundled with this Blu-Ray, allowing you to share the movie with anyone else. This is something that I have been waiting for Blu-Ray to do for a long time, and it's been mostly younger Disney Movies for now (Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty). HD-DVD was doing this the whole time, so it's nice to see Blu-Ray starting to do it more.
Overall: 5/5
Buy this movie if you like romance. Buy this movie if you like comedy. Buy this movie if you enjoy romantic comedies. This is a must watch for anyone looking for an underrated movie for its time, but something that has withstood the test of time and has become one of the greatest romance stories ever. Take it from a guy who enjoys a good Chick Flick, I will be watching this again and again. The price is right, the quality is superb, and the experience will be remembered for all.
What's great about it: Great Next Gen Price, Video Quality, TrueHD soundtrack
What's not so great: The movie experience has to end.

This is a superb transfer. It is actually FHD 1008p. I was very surprised and impressed. I've seen this movie so many times in the past on TV and on DVD, but the quality was always just subpar, grainy and pixelated. But this blu-ray copy on my 4k Blu-Ray Player with 4k HDR TV and Dolby Vision this is everything I have always wanted it to be and probably the director's vision as well. Well worth the money for the Blu-Ray source over DVD for 4k upscale. My family was very happy. It looks very modern now not all grainy and pixelated which was how I always saw it previously so I wasn't expecting much with this blu-ray, but I was happily disappointed in that regard. It is as close to a perfect transfer to FHD (1080p) as possible and even better upscaled to 4k from the 1080p source. So much better than the DVD copy of it I had. That thing was garbage. They did this transfer justice, and it will serve my family and friends years of viewing enjoyment! My one gripe and not a biggie, just something I noticed, is that they only transfer in FHD up until the end of the film. Once the credits start rolling it goes back to SD quality.with the images in the background all grainy and pixelated while the credits roll. Was it really going to cost much more to do that last minute while there were still images on the screen? Geez. But, everything up to the credits is perfection and makes viewing this movie even that much more pleasurable than it already was. Even some of the special features are in 1080p which is nice. Oh and lastly this is the 2017 release, but it's the same inlay as the 2015 release with a 30th anniversary cardboard rubber cemented to the front. Essentially a repackage of the same stuff. But, it's all good. Especially when I got it for half off b/c it was on sale. Inconceivable!

As one of very few movies that get very near perfection, The Princess Bride should be in everyone's collection.
The actors are all pretty much excellent, there is good laughs and Andre the Giant...no further description should be required.

This is the best movie ever made. Princess Bride is a romantic comedy that is nearly flawless and deffinetly a timeless classic. In terms of this genre it has a lot for a guy and a girl. It has action, suspense, romance, and a giant! If you have never seen this movie pick it up today, if you have seen this movie then you already know and should then pick up the special collector's edition. All in all a great movie to show a young one and for the avid movie collector.

Obviously the movie is amazing, so I'm not rating that but instead the packaging. I was excited for the 30th Anniversary Edition because of the picture of the cover. I didn't really expect new bonus features at this point so I wasn't disappointed by that. It just was a bit of a let down that the fan favorite voted cover isn't on the paper insert or even an outer shell that often accompanies movies. It's literally just a piece of cardboard stuck on to the case. The actual picture on the insert is from the 25th Anniversary Edition. It's still a classic movie but disappointing packaging if you already have a good copy.

The movie is great as expected, but only giving 4 stars due to the fact that it is not a 30th anniversary edition. It is a standard edition with a 30th anniversary picture stuck to the front of the standard movie case.

In 1987, a movie was released that captured audiences imaginations in every way possible. This movie had everything from romance to action to comedy as well as a most memorable cast of unique characters. This movie was The Princess Bride.
Now, 20 years later, The Princess Bride is rereleased on a special edition 2-disc DVD set, and I must say it is worth every penny. It is loaded with not only the classic film but also a wealth of bonus features including documentaries, trailers, and even a trivia game on quotes from the movie. There's even a booklet called Fezzik's Guide to Florin, which humorously details and describes various points of interests from the movie.
In addition to these bonuses, an eye for detail is given in creating the menus and the case. The menus are well-crafted and the cover is detailed with a beautiful portrait depicting the movie.
Whether you're a longtime fan of this film or are just discovering it, there has never been a better time to purchase The Princess Bride for your DVD collection.
