Even though this is a tough movie and reaches some dark places, it is incredibly paced, well written, acted and directed. John Boorman is at the top of his game and the stars of the film as well. To many good things to say about the entire production. They don't make films like this anymore. Story and characters carry this film, not special effects and over editing. Zigmond's Cinematography is incredible. This is a really good print for DVD. Additional extras make it a nice version to own.

I very much enjoyed this product, as a timeless adventure story whose main actors would become movie stars, and also as a bit of a cultural and historical landmark. It's worth noting that even the making of the movie was an adventure, as you can see in this Deluxe Edition. I bought this because I have been collecting classic movies on DVD, and I had been hearing about this movie for decades. Shortly before deciding to buy the DVD, I had seen the dueling banjos scene and quite enjoyed it. I had not originally been wanting to see the other famous scene, with that line, "Squeal like a pig," and this reluctance for years had made me uninterested in watching this movie. However, when I finally watched the movie, I found that from a modern-day adult perspective, that should not be a shocking scene, and I did not find it particularly disturbing. Besides the feature film, I enjoyed watching the documentary about the making of the movie. I also watched the entire movie a second time with the director's commentary and found that to be interesting from start to finish. The movie was filmed and takes place in the north Georgia mountains, and some of the actors were locals from that area. Having lived in Atlanta and visited north Georgia a few times, I found this location to be relevant and interesting. Even if you have never been to that region, you can enjoy some breathtaking scenery in this movie, an aspect that was a pleasant surprise to me. I highly recommend buying this product, which includes the feature film, the documentary, and the director's commentary, especially to anyone who is somewhat familiar with the story already or anyone who is interested in major late-20th century classic movies in general.Read full review
This one seems to have become an obscure classic nowadays. But when I first saw it, it left a lasting impression that has stuck through with me most of my life. Way before it's time by today's standards, this one is an absolute masterpiece of visual filmaking that has no peer and a true classic 'thriller' in every sense of the meaning.. From the first minutes of the film the story takes the viewer on a uphill, downhill ride through the deep woods. You don't know where you're going, but can only hear the voices of the passengers of the vehicles progressing through the seemingly benign passage. After some time you realize the characters are looking for guides to take them to a lesser known trail that will allow them to find the river. Hidden deep within the American woodland. I won't give the movie away by telling you the viewer who has never experienced this film for themselves what happens. But I'll just give you a special note that the man that plays the Sheriff at the end of the movie is the actual writer of the story. Who does such an amazing job it's a seamless.performance. Based on a book by the same name. I will ad if you're going to watch. Sit back and get ready for a life changing experience.Read full review

One of the scariest movies around. When this survivalist trip turns bad, with the assaults from the local hillbillies, this turns into a real survival story. Ned Beatty says the people still ask him about his role in this film. Haunting. Burt Reynolds and Jon Voight (coming off of his role as Midnight Cowboy) are convincing in their roles. Overall, a good film. Not recommended before you set out on a camping trip, but overall, part of cinematic history.
exciting movie - just as good as the first time I saw it (many years ago).
