Surprisingly there still seems to be some debate about whether or not Blu Ray is worth investing in. If you have any doubts about the high definition experience and what it can add to home entertainment, watch this excellent Buster Keaton classic and you will understand why Blu Ray is not going to be going away.
One of the first classics in all of film history, this is a heroic and hilarious story of war, love, and victory. It's 80 some odd years old and silent except for a great soundtrack.
About the Blu Ray transfer, let me simply say that it is pretty much perfect. There are understandably a few scratches and flickers here and there, but essentially it is an absolutely flawless representation of how the movie must have originally appeared. It is a great example of how a top notch transfer can revive even the oldest of films. If you've seen this before or even own a DVD copy, let me assure you the Blu upgrade is worth it. You haven't truly experienced it until you've seen it in 1080p. There's depth and detail that past generations couldn't even imagine this film contained.
Overall, 5 stars for the movie and 5 stars for this blu ray! Any doubters suspicious of Blu, or any doubters that older movies can't benefit from the technology are simply proven wrong with this release. Bring on more classics like this, it's like enjoying them for the first time again!
