Rob Reiner's fairy-tale like classic about true love and revenge is one of the most popular films of all-time. Lots of comedy and adventure found here. Great cast. Repeat viewing is high.
Features
The special edition is arriving in late 2001. All this standard release has is the trailer.
Audio
This 5.1 track won't impress you that much. A film like this needs no booming bass or busy surround noise.
Video
The special edition is supposed to be 16x9, of course it's not coming out for at least a year. This non-16x9 transfer still looks very good, with just a hint of blips. Pretty strong color.
Overall
This is one of those cheapy discs (retail is $19.99). If you can't wait a year to get the SE, plop down your $14 now.
