    Amazon.com essential video
    This lushly produced fantasy has gained a loyal following since its release in 1985, and it gave a welcomed boost to the careers of Matthew Broderick, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Rutger Hauer. You have to ignore the overly aggressive music score (critic Pauline Kael aptly dubbed it "disco-medieval") and director Richard Donner's reckless allowance of anachronistic dialogue and uninspired storytelling, but there's a certain charm to the movie's combination of romance and heroism. Broderick plays a young thief who comes to the aid of tragic lovers Isabeau (Pfeiffer), who is cursed to become a hawk every day at sunrise and Navarre (Hauer) who turns into a wolf at sunset. The curse was cast by an evil sorcerer-bishop (John Wood), and as Broderick eludes the bishop's henchmen, Navarre struggles to conquer the villain, lift the curse, and be reunited with his love in human form. The tragedy of this lovers' dilemma keeps the movie going, and Broderick is well cast as a young, medieval variation of Woody Allen. --Jeff Shannon

    The product arrived in a short amount of time. It arrived in good order, no scratches and the cover was also in very good shape, almost like new. Thank you so much for the well preserved product and the prompt service.


    5 out of 5 stars Love this movie. Must have in your collection   January 30, 2010

    Love the storyline and all the characters. Matthew Broderick and Rutger Hauer are my favorite actors. I wish it would come out in Blu-Ray. It's a must have in any collection.


    1 out of 5 stars This is **NOT** formatted for Widescreen   January 15, 2010
    William Mains (San Francisco)
    First off, Ladyhawke is a great movie that stands the test of ages. The movie gets a 5/5 or higher if I could rate it higher.

    But the DVD is unwatchable. It comes with two sides: one side is for the standard screen, and the other side is reported to be the "widescreen" version. Fair enough. Except that it isn't. The "widescreen" version is standard screen but squished down so that the wide version can fit in the standard screen. So on a flatscreen TV the image occupies at most only half of your screen area.

    I guess it is fine if you do have a regular TV, but since flat screen is now pretty much the norm, just don't buy this DVD. It is better not to watch Ladyhawke than to watch this. At least it was only $5 I flushed down the toilet but I was looking foward to seeing it again. Hopefully it will come out on Blu-ray.

    This is a good movie to watch with your spouse or sweetheart. It's romantic without going too much in that direction while the action scenes are exciting without dripping gore. My teen-aged kids saw it for the first time and they liked it as well. I wouldn't recommend it for really young kids,they probably wouldn't understand it anyway, but it's definitely one I would recommend for a family home movie night

    I, personally, love this movie. I've seen this "classic" at least a dozen times and have enjoyed it time and time again. It's a beautiful love story filled with intrigue and suspense. I highly recommend it.
