My Take on the Blu-ray
This as to be one of my favorite movies of all time and now it is back in amazing fashion! This Blu-ray was awesome. Not only did it capture all of the great lines (and humor) of the film, but is also did an amazing job at bring forth the cinematography of the film as well as the music to a completely new level than I had seen before. In general, this movie is such a funny movie, and with actors like Mandy Patinkin and Billy Crystal along with Cary Elwes you cannot go wrong. I mean you even get Andre the Giant as well, who though limited on acting ability still added some fun to the movie too. I have been waiting to share this movie with my kids until they were a bit older, but now that I have this, I plan to share it with them now and I hope that they like it as much as I do! If you are a fan of this movie as I am, you will want this Blu-ray in your own home!
