One of the brightest nuggets from Disney's golden age, this 1937 film is almost dizzying in its meticulous construction of an enchanted world, with scores of major and minor characters (including fauna and fowl), each with a distinct identity. When you watch Snow White's intricate, graceful movements of fingers, arms, and head all in one shot, it is not the technical brilliance of Disney's artists that leaps out at you, but the very spirit of her engaging, girl-woman character. When the wicked queen's poisoned apple turns from killer green to rose red, the effect of knowing something so beautiful can be so terrible is absolutely elemental, so pure it forces one to surrender to the horror of it. Based on the Grimm fairy tale, Snow White is probably the best family film ever to deal, in mythic terms, with the psychological foundation for growing up. It's a crowning achievement and should not be missed. --Tom Keogh Stills from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Click for larger image)

Classic movie |
|
I was amazed at how well the blu-ray version has enhanced the colour quality. For a movie this old i was impressed with the picture and sound quality. |

after all these years "simply brilliant"! |
Snow White on bluray is simply "brilliant".....Walt Disney and his animators would be so proud that their first full length movie cartoon has been restored to a better than original condition.
I'm now considered an oldie....however with no cobwebs.....I've seen this movie over the years first many times "at the movies"...then on VHS, and then on "normal" DVD. Viewing now the bluray on a large LED in the comfort of a home environment the cartoon movie is more beautiful than ever before. How the audio people took a mono sound track and made it into 7 channel sound is beyond belief. Individual orchestral instruments have a definite presence with the vocals also enhanced. There is rumbling bass when called for (but not too much). We decided it best to view Snow White and her little helpers on normal 4:3 format and not the so called Disney View where the black edges are filled by varying coloured art-work....this sort of takes away the attention from the movie itself.
Loved those "extras" so many infact that some had to be included on the feature disc.
Those at Disney should consider actually making the proposed "Snow White" II, sketchy details of which were shown on the extras disc.

A Classic but Not Impressed |
|
Sleeping Beauty on Blu-ray was an amazing spectacle and took the movie to new levels in quality. However, Disney was not able to do the same with Snow White. Personally I do not like the movie or songs, but the visually and audio quality are not on par with Sleeping Beauty. Certainly it is an old movie, but it did not meet my expectations. |

A masterpiece in glorious Blu-ray |
Anyone buying this movie has more than likely seen it before, so I'll just sum it up in one sentence: a truly ground-breaking masterpiece with some unforgettable sequences (despite a fairly slow second act, but that can be easily forgiven for a first-of-its-kind film).
With that out of the way, let's talk Blu-ray. Firstly, the transfer of this film is simply gorgeous. I bought the DVD back in 2001, but this is the closest I've come to the experience of seeing it at the movies. Obviously it won't look like "WALL-E" or even "Sleeping Beauty", but you're getting the most faithful presentation imaginable for a home format.
Furthermore, the extras are plentiful. Story meeting recreations, concept art, featurettes, abandoned concepts... it's all here, as well as some relevant pre-"Snow White" Silly Symphonies. I'm not a fan of the "Hyperion Studios" interactive VR-style menu format, but I feel ungrateful even raising such a complaint against so generous a package.
Do you enjoy great craftsmanship? If so, buy this Blu-ray NOW! |

Great gift...for someone that collect's such things! |

It is a good purchase. Cute plush toys of all the dwarfs and includes the DVD/Blu-ray combo. I was really only disappointed that the discs came in a DVD casing rather than the smaller Blu-ray disc casing. This combo is considered the Platinum Edition. If you want the Blu-ray disc casing, you'll need to go with the Diamond Edition...though you'll only be able to find the Platinum Edition case with the plush toys. |
