Classic Film Lover
5.0 out of 5 stars A Childhood Favorite that Still Has Its Charm
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2014
Verified Purchase
When I was 7, my cousin Mickey and I saw this film at the drive-in theater in Euclid, Ohio. Every year thereafter my dad would take me to see this classic when it was released again until its final release just before the film was released in 1982 on VHS and Betamax home video (as a rental only) and later released for home ownership. But the reason I bought this DVD was not for the first disc. I bought this for the bonus DVD with the original 1977 theatrical version of the movie...the one before the title, EPISODE IV: A NEW HOPE was added to the crawl.

If you are a staunch supporter of the "Han shoots first!" argument and detractor of the additional things that Lucas added unnecessarily (with exception the the cool solar flare around Alderaan and the Death Star when they explode), then this is the DVD for you. It cannot be found anywhere now in the retail market in NEW condition. Only in used CD and video stores will you find this gem. And, while I feel that the prices on Amazon for this version can be pricey at times, I know collectors will pay top dollar for the theatrical versions of the original trilogy films.

The 1977 theatrical version is presented in a widescreen format, preserving the original aspect ratio of its big screen showings, however, it is not formatted for the 16 X 9 coding used to format letterbox for widescreen TV sets of the present. So no matter how hard you may try, you will never be able to watch this version without the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen unless you click the zoom feature on your remote control. But doing that will crop most of the film, making it grainy and blurry in spots. This version is strictly for purists who are looking for 100% nostalgia.

The transfer was not given any special treatments either. There remain blemishes in the print that resemble that of the version that was issued on VHS in 1982, however, it gives the film a fun, theatrical viewing style which for me, is great if you want to relive this one from your childhood in its original form. There were no enhancements in color, picture or sound, or anything. This plays back in a monaural soundtrack. So if you want stereo, you will get simulated, not true stereo sound in this version and will have to hold out for Disney to release, if ever, a stereo version of this film.

But if you want a fun and true cinematic experience in your own living room, and want to share with your kids the version you originally saw in theaters, this version (on disc 2) is the one you want. What are you waiting for? Pick up a copy before you can't get it anymore. You'll be glad you did.

In closing, the only thing I didn't like about this DVD set is the artwork on the cover (front and back), It would have been nice if Lucasfilm and FOX went with the original film poster for the front of this amaray case. You will see the same artwork on disc 1 in this set.

Return to that galaxy far, far away...and watch a great adventure take place in your own living rooms again and again.

Now for the second part of my review, for the fans who feel they were short-changed by this release:

I think it is so amazing how people always seem to think they are OWED or ENTITLED to something. How arrogant and self-absorbed can people really be? Well, apparently 90% of the fans of STAR WARS seem to be in regards to this movie series. First of all, I am embarrassed to be a STAR WARS fan now and to be lumped in with the company of people who take it as a personal affront by George Lucas to update his films for a new generation of film lovers. Do I like the Special Edition versions? Not at all. But I feel the opposite of the rest of you who seem to hate them to the point of calling for a boycott of George Lucas and spewing your bile at him for updating his films. They are HIS! They are not yours. He can do what he wants with them.

You really have no idea how petty and trivial you all sound. Let me tell you. You do and you are! George Lucas never once forced anyone to go to the theater to see STAR WARS or any other film in this series. He didn't hold a gun to your head (or a lightsaber to your throats) threatening your life if you didn't invest your hard-earned money in his products. You did that all on your own...freely and of your own choice. And, while I wish Lucasfilm had released the original versions in anamorphic widescreen editions, I am just satisfied to have them and to be able to share them with a younger audience. If you don't like them, fine. That is your right, too. But stop crying like the spoiled brats your parents raised you to be and move on with your one and only lives.

While I believe that George Lucas owes you NOTHING, I feel you owe George Lucas an apology for your selfishness, your rudeness, and your vitriolic words of hatred toward him. He does not answer to his fans and to demand from the man that which you feel you are entitled to, just drives home the point that this generation for the most part is a selfish, arrogant bunch whose belief in self-entitlement is downright sickening. So you didn't get the versions of STAR WARS that you wanted? Big deal! That's life! Deal with it! I believe there are more important issues in this life than STAR WARS and the version that has been released here in this amaray case. But others here will cry and whine and spew until the end of your lives. But, that is your choice. And what a waste is is.

As for the Special Editions, fans who enjoy the newer effects can have them now to enjoy. I recently bought a Blu-ray player, but have not spent the money for the complete saga on Blu-ray. Why not, you ask? I am holding out hope that Disney will release the original version to us on Blu-ray. But if they don't, I am not going to go insane on them and boycott them. That is stupid and shows a maturity level of dirt. I am not making any demands on anyone because I would not presume to act as though I am entitled to own the original film I grew up on.

For those demanding better from George Lucas, I say to you look at yourselves first. I'm sure your parents raised you to be better than that which you seem to be projecting here. If not, then your parents failed you and your unwillingness to accept that has been redirected at George Lucas in your misguided attempts to feel better about yourselves. Grow up and get on with your one and only lives. Stop making the rest of the fans of STAR WARS look bad. Go make your own science fiction classic and then come back and see how well you and your own product are received by your "adoring" public.

If I were George Lucas, I would ignore you, too. Why would I want to give a whiny, spoiled brat more when they blatantly show me disrespect? Think of that as you look back on your own pathetic and useless lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars This film gave me my user name!
Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2012
Verified Purchase
In 1977, George Lucas released a film that pushed special effects farther than ever before, and made an instant classic. One thing that should be noted is that this film brought the sci fi genre back to life, and it's success gave films like the original "Alien" the greenlight.

The plot of this film isn't hard to get into: It is a period of civil war, and the evil empire (lead by the diabolical Darth Vader) is getting stronger and stronger. However, the rebellion won't go down without a fight. After winning their first victory, Princess Leia and a band of rebels have stolen secret plans to the empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored Space Station with enough power to destroy an entire planet! Now, Leia must team up with a band of rebels; the farm boy Luke Skywalker, the theif Han Solo, and wise hermet Obi-Wan Kenobi, to stop the empire before they gain complete control over the galaxy.

THE POSITIVES:
-The story is very creative, and the script is really tight.

-The characters are all great, developed well, and the acting is great. The stand out role here has to go to Harrison Ford as the witty Han Solo, he brings and extra degree of fun to the film (and yes, he DID shoot first).

-Overall, the pacing is pretty good, and there is plenty of action to satisfy.

-The directing is great as well, George Lucas deserves every bit of credit for his work on this film.

-Words can't describe the amount of spectacle Lucas gives us with the effects here. The scenes in space specifically gives us a more open environment in space like never before, and the "dog fights" with the fighters are extremely well done Audio, video, everything is amazing.

THE NEGATIVES:
-The pacing is really good MOST of the time. The section on Lukes home planet, Tatooine, is easily the slowest point of the film. Some of these scenes either could have been edited more, or could have have a tad more action. BUT, the opening sequence of the film is great, and the audience can greatly appreciate the build up with the characters.

-The acting is good most of the time, but there are still a few lines of dialogue that are delivered ackward, or are just written poorly. But, this is merely a nitpick (especially considering much of the cast here are newcomers) so it's easy to forgive that.

THE CHANGES:
-This being a Star Wars review, I am pretty much required by law to list the good and bad (mostly bad) "Lucas changes" to a film trilogy that was already perfectly fine. I don't want to bore anyone with a list of every single Star Wars change that is in this film, but I will address my least favorite change of this film:

-Han shot first, period. In the original cut, when Han is held at gun point by a bounty hunter, Greedo, he kills him without mercy. BUT, George Lucas tamered with this scene, and now, Han and Greedo both shoot at the same time, making it as if Han shot in self defence. The change simply looks terrible on screen, and it's very obvious it's been messed with. What made Han Solo a relatable character is that he starts out as a guy who only cares about himself. But, as the film goes on, we see him become a better man. George Lucas' "logic" with this change is that Han could never kill in such a merciless way. But, isn't the whole THEME of the Star Wars series redemption? And according to Lucas's logic, I guess you can wipe out a bunch of innocent kids and be redemed, but killing a bounty hunter in cold blood is just too much...

-Yeah, there are a few CGI dubed parts that are stupid, but I can easily ignore those. And honestly, there are some scenes that extra footage does help clean up some scenes, and makes some of the flying sequences "flow" better, and some changes help make the Star Wars saga feel like one series. For example, when this film was released, it was simply titled "Star Wars" and he later had it retirled "Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope", which I think is a pretty fitting title. But, that's pretty much all the good I can say.

In the end, Star Wars was an instant classic, filled with genius film making. There are very few times I would call a film "revolutionary", but this is definately a film I would say changed the way we view and make movies, and many of the sci fi classics of the 80s might not have been made if it wasn't for Star Wars. If you are a sci fi/adventure film fan, this is a film you should check out. Sure, sci fi films are a dime a dozen now, but the reason why we have films like Avatar are BECAUSE of the original Star Wars trilogy. And to any Star Wars fan, I think this is a set worth getting, simply because it has the original theatrical edition. Yeah, the quality is pretty bad, but not unbearable. Besides, DVD's last much longer than VHS, so as of now, this is the best way to own the original theatrical edition. Although this isn't my personal favorite of the Star Wars series, it still deserves all the credit it gets, which is why I am giving "Star Wars" or "Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope" 5 stars.

Great film in many ways! Thank God for George Lucas. Thank God for his Ex-wife (who, in the editing room, saved a mediocre film with potential)! And thank God for Akira Kurosawa's Hidden Kingdom from which Lucas clearly derived his film.

No venom, no hatred, just an obvious fact. If you don't know, these are essentially the same film. Still, space wizards make for an awesome re-imagining. I'd give A New Hope a solid 4.2, Empire a 5+ and Jedi a 3.7. Great series. If you somehow missed Star Wars, don't wait any longer. It's an exciting and very charming film. Go watch it.

5.0 out of 5 stars La mejor versión hasta ahora
Reviewed in Spain on June 26, 2021

Para mí la mejor versión hasta ahora. Visionado en un lcd de 75'' con reescalado a 2160p, esta versión en BR remasterizada del 2020 es la que ofrece mejor calidad de vídeo y audio hasta el momento y no veo diferencias ante la 4K incluso en esta versión el grano en algunas escenas es menos agresivo (en la arena y el cielo de Tatooine). Las escenas más oscuras en interiores como en la cantina de Mos Esley han ganado en definición y en general todas las escenas se ven mucho más nítidas sin bordes difuminados. Ha habido una corrección en los colores, mucho más controlados sin la sobresaturación existente en las versiones remasterizadas también en DVD del 2004 y en BR del 2011, ha desaparecido el velo azul y ahora los blancos (muchos en la película) son más naturales. Volviendo al asunto de la definición cuya mejora es muy perceptible , nos permite apreciar detalles como las imperfecciones (muescas) en la careta y los gránulos del cuero en los guantes de Vader. Incluso en el capítulo 46 ''Persecución en la trinchera'' en 01:54:47 podemos ver perfectamente los ojos del actor tras la máscara de Vader. Otra escena ''reveladora'' es lo que se ve tras el vestido de Leia en la escena del triturador de basuras de la Estrella. Si la véis lo entendereis...😗. En cuanto al sonido, mejoras también. Hemos pasado del DD 5.1 a 448 Kbps del DVD del 2004, el DTS 5.1 a 768 Kbps del BR del 2011 al DTS-ES 6.1 Matrix a 1500 Kbps, siempre a 48 KHz en la pista en castellano (ojo, en la carátula menciona solo DTS 5.1). Los diálogos son claros y la cohesión con la banda sonora muy equilibrada, perfecto. Respecto al metraje, el mismo que en las otras versiones con los ''pegotes'' digitales añadidos a la original de 1977 y con el doblaje original. En definitiva una compra super recomendable que esta vez no defrauda.

Ahora que han salido por separado las películas de Star Wars en blu ray con imagen y sonido remasterizada de nuevo, con motivo del lanzamiento de Star Wars en la plataforma Disney, si que puedes fiarte de esta review que hago respecto a la edición de Una Nueva Esperanza. Obviamente si posees la edicion en blu ray de 2011 te preguntarás "¿merece la pena?!. Si eres sibarita de calidad de imagen y sonido y posees una buena pantalla con una cantidad generosa de pulgadas, si ademas tienes un equipo de sonido de alta fidelidad 6.1 por lo menos... mi respuesta es si, SI, SI. Merece la pena. Han corregido la paleta de colores de la pelicula (lo que hicieron en 2011 fue una horterada saturando la pelicula). La calidad de nitidez y detalle a aumentado considerablemente y el sonido en DTS 7.1 es simplemente maravilloso. En resumen, se ve inmensamente mejor que el blu ray de 2011, incluso no tratandose de 4k (ni me imagino como sera en 4k viendose como se ve de bien esta). Nunca he visto con tanta calidad de imagen y sonido (y naturalidad) la Guerra de las Galaxias de 1977. No, no incluye la version original de 1977, es la edicion especial de 1997 con los añadidos de la version de 2011. Pero que no te quite las ganas: es impecable. Se ve hasta la altuma arruga de las caras, hasta el ultimo arañazo de c3po, y la musica de John Williams esta repartida de una forma espectacular asi como los efectos.
