Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: The African Queen (Korean issue) Comment: This particular video release is the best I've seen. I write this only to confirm another review which asserts as much in more detail. The picture is brighter and clearer, the sound better. As the other reviewer said, this is the one to buy. Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic Film, and this Korean version is the one to buy!! Comment: First let me say Bogart is perfect in this movie. His blend of stubborness and kindness, compassion and strength define this movie. He's the perfect man for the job of portraying someone who is self reliant and hard, yet with a little prodding shows his true character. He obviously makes the film what it is. As for this DVD release, all the menus are in English. Before you click play, simply go to the subtitles selection on the main menu, and choose NONE, then you can hit play. The film itself is in the original Full Frame Aspect ratio, so don't expect it to fill your widescreen HDTV, but thats a good thing, as that is how the director intended it to be shot. The print is in fine shape with no obvious flaws. It looks like its been cleaned up a decade ago, meaning not very well, but it has been cleaned up. Until a fully remastered version is released, don't hesitate one second in buying this DVD. Customer Rating: Summary: Thank you Korea!!! Comment: I have waited for YEARS for my favorite old time movie to be released on DVD. Isn't it shameful that one of this country's best classics hasn't been released yet? What is with that? Thankfully, Korea has released this version. I was hesitant to purchase an import, but decided to take the risk based on the other reviews here. They were right. The sound and color were crystal clear, and the quality was as good as you could want. No problems with it playing. Someone else noted they had to watch it with the subtitles. If you try to click the subtitles off from your remote, it won't work. You have to go to the main menu and click on setup options, and then turn the subtitles off. Who knows how many more years it will take these numbskulls to release this wonderful film in America. And now I don't have to wait anymore. If they come out with a great version with all kinds of extras and a decorative case with lots of artwork I will buy it. But in the meantime, I have this wonderful film now to enjoy and to show my grandchildren who have never seen it... Customer Rating: Summary: Best DVD Version Available Comment: I don't need to review the film. It's a classic and superb. I'm adding my voice to the existing reviews about the video and sound quality of this version of the movie on DVD. If you want this movie on DVD, this is the version to buy. Reasonable price and very good quality. Until the US wakes up and give this movie the DVD treatment it deserves go with this one. You won't be disappointed. Customer Rating: Summary: Though the subtitles are very annoying Comment: Great color and definition. Good job making this DVD. Sure wish there was an option to turn off those silly subtitles - they don't follow the dialogue and they are annoying. I'll still give the DVD five stars because it's such a good copy. More Reviews
