GHOST PATRICK SWAYZE RATING MOVIE
This is the 8 th film in the Paramount Presents series, which has a special slip case that opens to reveal the theatrical movie poster. Levels are good, with a nice balance on the surrounds and center channel, with that Righteous Brothers song filling the room during those especially romantic sequences.
GHOST PATRICK SWAYZE RATING FULL
The original score, which was also nominated for an Academy Award, sounds fantastic on this track, with a full range to demonstrate just how great it sounds. The audio is presented in Dolby TrueHD 5.1. Colors look very vibrant, and the darker scenes, many which take place on the streets of New York at night, look especially good. Very clear and detailed, with grain kept at a manageable level. This new transfer for Ghost looks incredible. The absolute best thing about this new line from Paramount is the new transfers for each of these films, some being released on Blu-ray for the first time.
GHOST PATRICK SWAYZE RATING 1080P
Ghost is presented in 1080p High Definition Widescreen 1.85:1 with a brand-new remaster from a 4k film transfer. If film has taught us anything, it’s that strong emotion goes perfectly with comedy, and Ghost is able to provide that wonderfully. Even though this love story is what the film is known for, there are still bits of great comedy sprinkled through the film thanks in large part to Whoopi Goldberg, who also won an Academy Award for her performance as Oda Mae Brown, usually the source of all the hilarity between her unseen interactions with Sam. To think, the man who brought us Airplane! and the Naked Gun films could deliver such an emotionally driven film shows the depth of the director and how committed he was to this project. It’s a deep and moving message that almost any audience member can reflect on, even today.Īll of this emotion is wonderfully portrayed by the actors in the film, the Academy Award winning screenplay, and the direction by Jerry Zucker. Whether or not it was prophetic, his sudden departure from this mortal coil begins in a wave of grief, as I’m sure it would any of us, but more so for Sam knowing that he held back when he should have embraced his life with every ounce in his body. Despite Sam and Molly’s passionate relationship, on an emotional level Sam can’t even commit to saying ‘I love you’ back to Molly, feeling like his dream is about to come crashing down at any moment. Sam really does seem to have it all a loving relationship, a good job, and seemingly close friend. That story, still heartbreakingly tragic, of a man who had it all but was held back by the feeling he didn’t deserve it, and not being able to express he feelings until after he died. It’s a combination of the effects being so well done, but especially the story being so engaging that you are never taken out of the pacing to think twice about what’s happening around you. The film relies heavily at times on these effects, and the most interesting thing is that I didn’t even seem to pay much attention to them, which is a bit surprising given the fantastical nature of a guy walking through doors, manipulating objects with the force of his mind, and jumping into bodies possessing people. Patrick Swayze is usually known for his roles in Dirty Dancing, and Roadhouse, but whenever I think of his best performances, I always think back to this film, which I think truly shows off the best of his acting ability.Īfter 30 years, the film still holds up amazingly well, in terms of story, acting, and especially special effects, which were some of the first computer generated effects at the time. The Paramount Presents line continues to grow, with its newest inductee, Ghost. This limited edition Blu-ray has been remastered from a 4k film transfer, supervised by director Jerry Zucker.” Featuring a memorable Maurice Jarre score and a heartbreaking, yet often funny script by Brice Joel Rubin, GHOST is a truly unique genre-defying film that will cross over into your heart and never leave. To solve his own murder, he enlists the talents of a skeptical psychic (Whoopi Goldberg), who doesn’t even believe her own abilities. While desperate to reconnect with the love of his life, Molly (Demi Moore), he discovers his death wasn’t just a random robbery gone bad. Winner of two Academy Awards, Patrick Swayze is Sam, recently departed from the living world, but left behind in spirit form. “Celebrating 30 years, GHOST is still one of the most memorable romantic films ever made.
