Customer Ratings & Reviews

Saw it when it originally came out in the theaters. A great movie with a terrific cast, wonderful soundtrack and lots of action and adventure.

Full of great music, a story of a man who believes he can travel thru a black hole......

I was unusually Entertained the first time that i had seen This very Unique Movie. The movie takes place in space and concludes into an unexpected unknown. I really liked the film...and not wanting to prematurely explain the story's ending. I had liked the character's development in the film...with a few questionable squirmishes. The film's history in it's making is also interesting...making for an interesting special features video.

A sure classic and great addition to any dvd collection. The color and detail really come through when watching using a Blu-ray player and Ultra HD TV. This dvd is NOT Blu-ray, but the player and TV combo give the movie a Blu-ray like color quality.

I remember watching this many years ago, and had a few of the action figures. I know some people say this doesn't hold up to the "test of time", but I believe in its awesomeness.

I don’t think Disney will ever remaster this movie for Bly-Ray of 4K UHD so DVD is as good as you’re gonna get.

Old movie from the past, one of my favorite movie from my youth, found the best deal from bestbuy.

This is an early SciFi movie from Disney. I loved it when I was a kid. I bought it for my kids to watch and they love it as well. It makes you appreciate the special effects of the time.

I was looking for this DVD for a while and it is great that Best Buy had the movie in stock.

This is a great movie, love Best Buy selection. They have everything

This is a must if you like Sci-Fi movies, I had to add it to my Star wars collection.

good movie in good condition, but not perfect. i would still recommend.

Disney's attempt at Star War before Disney purchased Lucas Entertainment. Very enjoyable.

You never hear anyone talk about this movie, but I always enjoyed it immensely.

Awesome 80s flick. Wish drive inns would play it again

Made in the 70s so effects are dated. As a child of that era I don't mind. On bit Unique storyline that could really do well as a reboot. One can only hope.

It's ironic to think that Disney originally made The Black Hole as an answer to the rising popularity of sci-fi and especially Star Wars itself. They wanted to cash in on the craze and what we ended up getting was this. Now, they own Star Wars. The Black Hole was always a favorite of mine, even if at times it was kind of strange, especially the ending (no spoilers, though). The plot involves a crew of the Palamino who find a missing ship, the U.S.S. Cygnus, commanded by Hans Reinhardt, which has found a black hole and is studying it. The entire ship is run by robots, with the exception of Reinhardt himself, who has become completely obsessed with his mission to study the black hole and even enter it. The crew are essentially held hostage by Reinhardt and his robot crew as he believes they can help him in his mission. The visual and practical effects are some of the best ever done and include a new camera tracking system that could even move on a matte painting, something never possible before. The modeling of the Cygnus rivals even Star Wars and Star Trek with the attention to detail and the shear size of the model, over 12 feet long and 150lbs. At the time, Disney had wanted to use Industrial Light & Magic's new camera system, but the cost to use was too much, so Disney made its own, which became superior to the former. Overall, the entire movie is a spectacle to watch if you love visual effects, but the plot itself kinda loses its steam, leaving you scratching your head at the ending and wondering just what the writers were on when they came up with the idea.

Disney actually did a great job on this classic piece of sci-fi and I enjoy watching this over and over...and sharing this with my kids. This is a must have for any DVD collection.

This movie was one of my favorites as a child I used to watch it over and over again. Watching it now still brings back great memories and I recommend it to anyone is a true Sci-Fi fan.
