1.0 out of 5 stars Wait, November 11, 2007
This review is from: El Cid (DVD) - BY GOLDEN CLASSIC COLLECTIBLES (DVD)
The real dvd release of El Cid is finally happening on 1/28/08 in a special edition and collector's edition. It will be remastered with lots of great extras. Don't buy the bad copies or the Asian bootlegs, wait for the real thing.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wrong product sent, August 16, 2007
By J. B. Langendorf (Las Vegas, NV) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: El Cid (DVD) - BY GOLDEN CLASSIC COLLECTIBLES (DVD)
I specifically asked for the Golden Classic Collectibles version of El Cid. I received the Chinese knockoff instead. I returned it for a refund. Hoping that a decent version of this film is eventually released by the studios. Disappointed because I'm such a Chuck Heston fan.

1.0 out of 5 stars El CID by Golden Classic -- Poor Quality Product, November 21, 2007
This review is from: El Cid (DVD) - BY GOLDEN CLASSIC COLLECTIBLES (DVD)
One expects more for the $35 + price on this DVD. You are better off purchasing one of the $7 -$12 DVD versions offered by others. The color in the Golden Classic Collectibles version is just about non-existent. We had to reset our TV color setting to maximum in order to see a modest color enhancement; which wasn't much. The sound is muffled at some points, and for those hard of hearing, the English captioning has mis-spelling, and omits random sentences and words. All in - - a VERY POOR quality offering for such a high price. I regret purchasing this Golden Classic version. Too bad Amazon doesn't have some sort of rating system for these DVD knockoff's. Until then, customer reviews will have to do.

1.0 out of 5 stars El Cid
DO NOT BUY THIS DVD. It is produced in China. It is in English, but there are subtitles that you cannot remove, and the first lines have major misspellings. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Heston does it better
If you like movies such as "Gladiator" or "Troy", Charlton Heston will show you how a real period piece is done.
