Rated 5 out of 5 stars
One of the best classics
This is one of my favorite movies and it was also one of the first I purchased when I got a Blu-ray player. I have enjoyed watching this film with my family several times and it is just a great movie overall. I would highly recommend seeing this picture to anyone.
In this 3 disc release of “The Longest Day,” you get the movie on a Blu-ray disc and a DVD, and another DVD with special features. There is no digital copy. The BD of this movie about the D -Day invasion of Normandy, looks great. The DVD when played on a BD player looks good, but it looks terrible when played on a DVD player. It’s has too much contrast and lacks shadow detail which makes it hard to see the night scenes, which are an important part of the story.
The special features disc has 7 items. On the featurettes, they sometimes use the same clips, but this is probably because they were made at different times, for different purposes.
Also included are five 4.5 x 5.5 inch art cards with facts about some of the main characters. The plastic disc case comes in a slip case.
This is a great deal for WWII buffs and it was on sale for 7.99!
I really enjoyed watching this movie. It is a pretty good historical reference point if you don’t know much about the day. I would encourage you to watch this for context if you wanna know what happened
