Regardless of what you may have to say about the man himself, Polanski displays many of the great qualities one looks for in a director and his work, especially this piece, is evidence of that.
The higher resolution quality provided via blu ray combined with classy new packaging and
you’ve got yourself a winner.
Excellent work.

Chinatown features incredible writing, excellent directing, and an absolutely astonishing performance from one of the great actors of all-time, Jack Nicholson.

One of Jack Nicholson's greatest performances, though a bit dated now. So much style in this film. Its a great watch again and again.

This Detective/Mystery with a murder or two is typical of the genre of the 1960’s and 1970’s period. The principal acting staff were both experienced and talented, and this moving-picture is blessed with the extraordinary performances of both Jack Nicholson and Faye Dunaway. The films story-line starts out very slowly building a base for what is to come which is both captivating and interesting with several surprises along the way. This movie presents a very good “cat and mouse game” and its’ ending is not what you suspect. Additionally, this classic Detective/Mystery is both intelligent as-well-as entertaining, and I am sure you will agree that Chinatown will be entertaining audiences for years to come

This was more like a 3 star movie to me; I didn't feel anything in particular after watching it, but can say that it didn't feel like a waste of time. Still, it's "one of the greats" so it's worth a buy for it's historical importance.

Anybody who knows Jack Nicholson rolls, know he plays suave, debonair and slightly morally compromised rolls, this is his early work as a detective who falls for the lady who hires him to find her husband's killer, only to find there is more to the plot than what meets the eye.
Clever, funny, and leaves you wondering what's next.

Hands down the best Private Investigator movie Hollywood has have produced. Jack Nicholson is well, Jack Nicholson of course. The story line is awesome and stays true to actual P.I. work. Not too glorified or exagerated. Good stuff

I was really excited when I saw this one day at Best Buy because I couldn't find it at any other store, and it was cheaper than Amazon when I bought it. The cover is also a big plus.

Got this for $8 at Best Buy. Good looking disc with extras and a great story. They don't make movies like this anymore.
