5 out of 5 stars Yes, the bluray is worth getting    January 4, 2009
EPshots@yahoo.com (USA)
PATTON is simply a great,great motion picture for reasons that have been discussed and written about for nearly 40 years--having purchased all the other video versions,I felt a bit irresponsible placing an order for yet another edition:BLURAY.We ARE duped a little, in that disc 2 is simply the normal DVD from the previous 2-disc set added to the BLURAY package--kinda a ripoff...no,definatly a ripoff. But the BLURAY transfer is stunning, and if you love this film alot, as I do, you will eventually forget how pathetic it is to own 3 or 4 versions and be happy you have it on BLURAY!

This Two-Disc set is the best Film and commentary can get; if you like biographical drama you'll love this one!


5 out of 5 stars One of the Best    December 20, 2008
Harry F. Benson
George C. Scott and all the other actors put on a great performance. This movie is well directed and edited and deserves to be in the top 100 movies of all time. Although it strays from the truth occasionally about the real Patton, as a myth maker the movie is superb. This movie script is what put Spielberg into the big leagues as far as movie making goes. The best thing about it is the nuances and complexity of the Patton character, it belies the stereotyping usually given to military types as depicted by Hollywood.

George C. Scott is the star in this magnificent movie about Patton.
A must have in any man's war movie collection


1 out of 5 stars I prefer the dvd or vhs... the Blue-ray version has been butchered    December 1, 2008

The movie is extraordinary. I hate the Blue-ray version of the movie! Save your money... vhs or dvd better represent the original. The Blue-ray version has been butchered! Black and white movies colorized is off my list also... And would someone please tell me how to start the movie without the previews and introductions? I have no interest in the opinions of others about the movie prior to watching the movie. And forcing me to watch previews of other movies are best left to copies from Blockbuster or the theater. $2000 for a new tv, new cable box, new receiver, new Blue-ray player and it sucks! And $20+ for the Blue-ray. Fox should pay me to watch the previews. The DVD version stays and the new Blue-ray version is to be listed on eBay later tonight.
