If you're a superfan of this film, then you know there have been so many iterations of the film that it's hard to keep up with which one is which. Luckily this set as every single version, so you can watch every progression in all its glory (or not so much if it's the theatrical version). The special features are great, the booklet is impressive and the video quality is superb. In short, don't think just buy it. Go. Now. Do it.

This is a deep and powerful film about a man who leaves a dying Earth as part of a team of astronauts in order to find a habitable planet for Earths population. What makes this movie so deep is the sequence of events related to the aging of this man's family especially with respect to his daughter while he travels hundreds of light years from Earth. His remaining young while he watches the passing of decade after decade of video messages from his daughter and son, one really feels the lack.

I loved this movie when I was a kid. Our version was a home recorded VHS tape though! Lol when I saw it was out, and so inexpensive for a Disney movie, I decided to go ahead and buy it for my son. We love the digital versions because we can just load up Vudu withought having to get out the DVD. No kids scratching up discs!

if ur a fan of T.H. White's TOFK

Verified Purchase:Yes
"The Sword in the Stone" is a wonderful Disney picture. Animated and only 79 minutes long, it is perfect entertainment for children and good solid entertainment for adults.
This movie is adapted from a book of the same title (written by T.H. White). Mr. White's book follows the early life of a famous British folklore hero, King Arthur (a legendary monarch of the 6th century). Bill Peet, a Disney animator and writer, wrote the adaptation and did an outstanding job. His writing is very very good. The script is clever and insightful and it has a delicate charm and a depth of goodness.
According to the story, a sword is magically thrust deep into an anvil that sits on top of a large stone. It is decreed (on the sword itself) that who-so-ever is able to remove the sword from the stone shall be anointed king of England. Many men try ... but they all fail. Then, after a long time has passed, a youth named Arthur appears on the scene and, miraculously, he pulls the sword from the stone ... and then is made ruler over all of England.
The story also includes another legendary character ... Merlin (a wizard & magician). Merlin is wise, powerful ... and dotty. He foresees the arrival of the twelve year old Arthur and he feels that it is fore-ordained duty to be the boy's teacher/mentor/companion to guide the lad toward some mysterious destiny.
Merlin, Arthur, and Merlin's pet owl Archimedes (who can talk) then embark on three magical adventures (the squirrel scene ... the second adventure ... is simply delightful). After these "educational" adventures are completed the movie moves swiftly to the dramatic moment of Arthur and the sword.
Throughout the story there are, of course, bad guys (and bad creatures), but no danger is too serious or too scary and the bad guys are never allowed to win ... even temporarily. Whether it is Sir Ector or Kay or a wolf, he (the bad guy) always falls victim to some misfortune (which is fun, of course). Walt Disney was not always so benevolent in his films. Take "Pinocchio" for example, where the bad guys are allowed to prevail for most of the movie (which definitely detracts from the movie's appeal).
The voice characterizations in "The Sword in the Stone" are very good. Karl Swenson provides the voice of Merlin, and he is wonderful. I guess it was his 30 years of experience in films and (more particularly) radio that enabled him to do such an excellent job, but it is a truly remarkable and enjoyable voice performance. Junius Matthews does the voice for Archimedes the owl, and he is superb. Sebastian Cabot provides the voice for Arthur's boisterous, self-important, crass, and uncouth master Sir Ector ... and this would be the usually refined, articulate, and dignified actor Sebastian Cabot ("We should call it 'Untidy Joseph' rather than 'Sloppy Joe'" - from his role as Mr. French in "Family Affair"). Martha Wentworth does the voice of the evil Madame Mim ... and she is a delight!
All in all, "The Sword in the Stone" gives us very good entertainment, and it merits repeated viewings.

Watch more than once

Verified Purchase:Yes
his movie has very little dialogue, it’s more of an illustration or “watch and see what happens” kind of movie.” It’s graphic, hardcore, and brutal with lots of carnage. This movie demonstrates the intense brutality of war and the (basic human will to survive) at all costs. The movie is a masterpiece and all veterans will appreciate it.
The only problem I had with this movie is the ending. The movie ends way to fast, leaving you with lots of questions about the outcome of the main character, otherwise, it’s absolutely amazing!

Blade Runner 2049 (2017) is an acquired taste, but once you get past its slow start and pacing, you’ll be riveted on its very intriguing and unique storyline. I say this because it’s extremely slow-moving, and for those who appreciate its pacing with a payoff at the end, then this film is for you. As a stand-alone film, it’s 5 stars. While I still prefer the 1982 film, this sequel can hold its own, because it’s inevitably a different film in a different era of filmmaking. I tend to dislike CGI and the bloated budgets of today, but this is a visual feast with a slow-burning plot. I will add that the sound effects are some of the best I’ve ever experienced in a film; they really create a mood and set a tone. The film really pays homage to the film noirs of the 1940’s and 50’s with all of the classic lighting and other elements of film noir. The special effects are second to none, and come across as showy, but still relevant. I give the director a lot of credit for not ‘selling out’ with this long-awaited sequel. He could’ve easily made this film fast-paced and consistent with the speed of films these days, such as the Star Trek reboots. I give him props for not succumbing to the pressures of wanting to appeal to a wider audience. I think this film came up short in money grossed because the younger crowd isn’t all that familiar with the Blade Runner canon, coupled with the fact that most people want something faster-moving these days. I think this film challenges those with short attention spans, which is a great thing, because if you get through it, you will most likely appreciate it as something refreshingly different in a fast-paced world. Overall, Blade Runner 2049 is a worthy sequel to a classic of American cinema, Blade Runner. The blu ray is really something special, with lots of special features that are interesting. Perhaps I will update this review after a few more viewings.

an essential for the anime collection
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: Filmlover
from Slidell,la
Verified Purchase:Yes
Quite simply put, Mamoru Hosada's The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is one of the greatest anime films ever made. Without spoiling too much, it touches on all kinds of social issues from bullying to awareness of one's surroundings and the people in them. The main idea presented here, however, is that it is best in life to deal with one's problems as they come instead of running from them. This film is cute and fun in most places, but still remains harsh and biting in others. Truly a masterpiece. For the fan of Makoto Shinkai's work, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is an excellent starting point for the exploration of the anime genre.
