Editorial Review:

The winner of 7 Academy Awards including Best Picture, The Sting has become one of America's favorite and most critically acclaimed films. Robert Redford and Paul Newman star as two con men in the 1930's out to avenge the death of a friend. They seek revenge on a crime lord (Robert Shaw) with a "sting" that is one of the greatest double-crosses in movie history, complete with an amazing surprise finish. Directed by George Ray Hill and written by David S. Ward.
 

Customer Reviews:

One of my ten favorite movies!
I bought the "Legacy Series" disc to get a wide screen version, and it is a very fine upgrade from my older 4:3 aspect version.

I can't comment on the additional content of the second disc. I generally don't even watch that stuff.

One For The Ages
This movie is excellent, with a stellar cast headed by Paul Newman and Robert Redford at their peak. You have to see this movie in order to fully appreciate it; no words or someone else's review can do it justice. As for the Amazon part of it, it came timely and in excellent condition. However, I had trouble with the checkout process and double ordered this movie. I gave the other to a friend but I do not enjoy being so confused and non-tech-savvy so that it makes me want to buy from another site that shows me what I have in my cart, how much the total price will be, etc. Amazon's DVDs, however, do come always in wrapped, new condition. What bothered me was my writing to the seller first to find out which was full or widescreen. I received no answer. When I happened to buy the DVD twice, I gave the fullscreen away, but that was quite tacky. An answer from the sellers would be recommended, even if the answer is no.

Great movie, period!!!
Forget about the aspect ratio, focus on the film and it's plot...The story is superb, the acting is first class, the customs and the beautiful music is unique!!!! The HD version is great with no "snowy" images when is shot in the dark (like Blu-ray).. I love this movie. If you are a true movie lover without prejudices, you will love it!!

The Sting CD
The Sting
We were very pleased with the DVD. It brought back memories of when we had originally seen the movie. Interestingly we found that there were parts we didn't remember. We are really happy we bought it.

Still Great
Unfortunately, once you've seen the "twist" ending, the movie loses some luster, but the performances are first rate, and it's still a wonderful film all these years later. Great trivia regarding the casting- Luthor is played by James Earl Jones father, who was also a solid actor!
