Customer Ratings & Reviews

1960's classic drama with Oscar nominated performances by Paul Newman,George C. Scott, Jackie Gleason and Piper Laurie.

classic move that was on sale. You cannot beat these old classics

This is the first story of Fast Eddie played by Paul Newman then color of money followed after. Great film

A movie classic one of Oaul Newman’s best works. An overall great classic film.

Where else will you find Jackie Gleason shooting pool? Add Paul Newman and you can't go wrong!

Later followed up by Color Of Money, this movie is an amazing look at gambling and billiards

Great movie with great video quality. No complaints.

Well worth the purchase. Classics like this never go out of style.

Not as dated as my think due to the timeless nature of the theme, well worth a viewing.!

Fun to see Jackie Gleason And Paul Newman together in a film.

This is an excellent Paul Newman movie. It holds up well.

Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason--what else needs to be said?!

Fantastic classic film with Paul Newman. Good features.

If you like pool and a great story from the past this is a must have

My husband was a pool player so he and I enjoyed this movie very much.

Great movie for the billiards player you are or may know.

great classic for the ages. Love the price and the BD quality.

I received a different case cover on my dvd - and it doesn't list that it was the special edtion, as it does on this item's photo listed on the website. Other than that, it was a good price.

I wonder what some of the older actors think of actors/acting today. In my opinion, parts of this movie seem to have lots of over acting. Depending on what you like would depend on if I would recommend to you. I don't think my kids could sit through this movie.

This has to be one of the greatest films of the 1960's, everything just clicks in this film from the knockout A-list of actors down to the fantastic script with intelligent dialog that's lacking in today's films. Paul Newman is on top of his acting game in "The Hustler" with Jackie Gleason as his adversary/opponent shows nothing but class tho his dialog was kept down to a minimum to show he was a man of business where action speaks louder than words & money is king. George C. Scott plays an underworld type that fronts money to exceptional pool players but at exorbitant percentages takes Fast Eddie (Newman) as a partner while putting the make on the girlfriend. The visuals look grand with fine separation between blacks, whites & grays giving this B&W film excellent contrast. Clarity is never an issue since the bitrate is high on this 50GB blu-ray disc. The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack is very robust and natural sounding for a mono source remaster. A front heavy dialog driven track that will not use surrounds much yet still sounds fantastic. I can't believe I picked this up on-sale for $4.99, a film that I would have purchased at 4 times the price just because this film is a classic that will never grow old and movies today will never match. Worth every Dollar!
