Summary: WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF
Comment: If I could have only five movies to call my own, CASABLANCA would be my first, or second choice ( VERTIGO, THE APARTMENT, SEVEN SAMURAI, and THE CITY OF LOST CHILDREN would be the others... ). I don't know whether I've seen this film classic a hundred, or a hundred and fifty, but it never bores me. This is one of those incredible gems that seemed to have half of Hollywood in it, and a love-triangle that has never been matched. If there is a flaw in it, I have yet to find it.
The picture on the blu-ray print is very good- as is the sound. The extras are nice, but it is a bit pricey.

Summary: Spectacular Blu Ray Edition!
Comment: One of the greatest films comes to Blu Ray----in an incredible transfer. I've never seen this film look so crystal clear. The audio transfer is crisp and clean as well. I've had the luxury of seeing a restored print shown in Hollywood, but never thought I'd see that clarity again. Bravo to Warner Bros. Home Video----for a change they got it right!
Extras are terrific and the packaging, while being a little cumbersome, is fun. I compared it to my old DVD, and it was a huge improvement. So much so that I bought it for a friend as a X-mas gift!!
For those who don't own it, get it. For those who haven't seen it, see it. This is one of the most perfect films ever made. Brilliant acting, editing, camerawork, music, lighting, and an awesome script loaded with some of the greatest lines ever captured on film.

Summary: "Casablanca" is a treasure
Comment: "Casablanca" is a treasure. It's one of those rare films that you can't see too often. Each viewing bring a further appreciation of it. It is Bogart at his best, Bergman at her most sublime and a cast of character actors with a personal, emotional attachment to the theme of the movie. It's no surprise that it has become one of the cinema's most beloved films. Its history is as fascinating as the film itself and the added features enrich a person's appreciation of the accomplishment of the film. The creative folk who make the film are every bit as interesting as the film they created.

Summary: No brainer
Comment: This is a great movie, maybe the best ever made. The blu-ray makes the film gorgeous to watch. And the extra DVD material is pretty cool. The packaging is over the top, and the passport case is dumb, frankly, which makes this more expensive than it needed to be. It is also why I rated this as only 4 stars. Just give me the film. Leave the extra junk out.

Summary: Classic film everyone should own!!!
Comment: A nice additional to your video library. The bonus disc is nice but nothing overly special. The print of the film is fantastic. I have watched this disc a couple of times all ready and this film holds up over time. Although Citizen Kane is still my favorite movie of all time this one rates as the best romantic film. Buy this film in any packaging the second disc isn't mandatory but it's nice.

Editorial Reviews:

A truly perfect movie, the 1942 Casablanca still wows viewers today, and for good reason. Its unique story of a love triangle set against terribly high stakes in the war against a monster is sophisticated instead of outlandish, intriguing instead of garish. Humphrey Bogart plays the allegedly apolitical club owner in unoccupied French territory that is nevertheless crawling with Nazis; Ingrid Bergman is the lover who mysteriously deserted him in Paris; and Paul Heinreid is her heroic, slightly bewildered husband. Claude Rains, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Conrad Veidt are among what may be the best supporting cast in the history of Hollywood films. This is certainly among the most spirited and ennobling movies ever made. --Tom Keogh
