With Fire and Sword (ES) Part 2

Summary: What a Shame!
Review: First, the manufacturers of this DVD should have there heads examined and their post production staff fired! First, the film and the others in the trilogy are presented in a flacid, grainy, FULL FRAME version. This epic was shot in scope (2.35 : 1 widescreen). In fact, the widescreen VHS version looks better! Also, I find it hard to believe that one of Poland's great film epics was mixed in two channel stereo and not 5.1. Overall, if you want this film, search out the widescreen VHS version until they get this DVD and the others right...if ever!

Summary: DVD version of With Fire & Sword
Review: This movie is great! It is in full screen mode, but it's so much better than the widescreen version no longer available. This movie was originally filmed to be a TV series of 4 episodes. When the widescreen movie came out, the distributors cut the movie up and there is about 10% of the movie missing. Polart has released the full length version, but unfortunately no widescreen version is available in Poland. The story is very good. This recently filmed movie has some of the most amazing costumes and battle scenes. It's a great story, and is based on historical events, so history buffs should love it.
