The movie's great (if you like Akira/Japanese/Samurai movies). The DVD sucks... that's about all there is to say unfortunately

RAN.

Akira Kurosawa's late epic film about an aging warlord decides to split his kingdom between his three sons, who will live in three separate castles. The two eldest sons are quite happy, but the youngest thinks his father has gone mad, and predicts that it won't be long until the two older brothers are fighting with each other.


MOVIE: 9/10
VIDEO: 6/10
AUDIO: 5/10
EXTRAS: N/A

Will the remastered version that was released last year ever be released on DVD?? The best I can say about the current release is that it sure knows how to destroy brilliant use of color.

One of my favorite films, but I haven't bought the DVD based on the overwhelming negative comments I've seen here and elsewhere about the quality of the DVD.

I'll wait, and hope....
