Title: What a disappointment!
Review: While the movie "Forbidden Planet" is a landmark science fiction movie, and well worth including in anyone's media library, I cannot recommend the DVD version sold here. The widescreen side is distorted, with characters and perspective appearing tall and narrow; and the TV-formatted side is dark, fuzzy, and poorly dubbed. In my opinion, anyone interested in purchasing this movie for their home library should be sure to buy it in a brick-and-mortar store where they can view the version being sold to assure its quality. That would hold true of the VHS version as well as the DVD version, since it is probable that the same distributor who made the DVD version also made the VHS version sold here. I should have paid attention to other reviewers who have had the same disappointing result from purchasing this DVD as I have. I am writing this review so that others won't make the same mistake I did.
Is the review positive or negative?
