Bad DVR copies

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2022

This is the second return to Amazon because the DVR copy was faulty, or didn't play on my DVR player. I still want to find a copy of "Boys from Brazil" with Gregory Peck, James Mason and Laurence Olivier. It's a classic cult movie, well acted, good story line, surprise finish.

This movie is somewhat true about Dr. Mengele

Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2022

Verified Purchase

It is fiction based on some facts. Menegle did not die the way the movie depicts. He was a horrible person who experimented on humans in the death camps. He lived out his life as many Nazi’s did in South American countries after WW2. Never brought to trail for war crimes. Apparently, the Nazi’s who lived in South America were not exposed or protected by the countries they lived in. My dad fought in WW2. He liberated many from concentration camps. He stated, after the war, you could not find a Nazi. They burned their uniforms and went to their homes and lived like they did not know anything. Some of course, some were apprehended and went on trail in Nuremberg, Germany.

A truly evil plot and the best of the post-war Nazi films

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2020

Verified Purchase

In the 1960s-70s there were a series of films about the legacy of the Nazis. One of the first was the 1966 Quiller Memorandum where George Segal worked for a secret agency trying to stop a Neo-Nazi revival in Berlin. In 1974 there was The Odessa File with Jon Voight as a freelance journalist who stumbles upon a network that helped Nazis after World War II. 1976’s Marathon Man had college student Dustin Hoffman caught in the middle of a plot between the U.S. government and an old Nazi played by Laurence Olivier. By far the best of the lot and the most menacing was The Boys from Brazil released in 1978.

The movie begins with a novice American Nazi hunter Barry Kohler (Steve Guttenberg) in Paraguay calling Ezra Liberman (Laurence Olivier) in Austria who is based upon real life Nazi investigator Simon Wiesenthal. Kohler stumbled upon a plot by old followers of Adolf Hitler that included war criminal Dr. Josef Mengele (Gregory Peck) to murder 94 men across various countries around the world. Kohler is killed for his snooping, which gets Lieberman involved. The Nazi’s plan turns out to be mind-blowing and sinister, and puts it hands above all the other films dealing with this topic.

Olivier plays a great Liberman. He’s grumpy, he’s cynical, but he cares and takes up Kohler’s cause. Peck as Mengele is imposing and evil. The story goes through twists and turns, and really has to be seen.

Forever a GREAT WATCH!

Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2021

Verified Purchase

I don't care what anyone says--I could and have watched this movie many times. And each and every time it's a total blast. How can you miss with pitting a bullish, nasty Gregory Peck as dear old Dr. Mengele against a very fragile (and I mean fragile) Laurence Olivier as his nemesis Ezra Liebeman--a famous Nazi hunter. Lord Olivier looked like he might break in half at any moment if he just bumped into a prop table or chair--but his gutsy and unstoppable performance elevated everyone in the movie. Uta Hagen as the beastly Nazi guard who aided Dr. Mengele is superb. Absolutely hateable as any Nazi should be. James Mason makes a perfectly wonderful and slithery Nazi "travel agent". And the amazing Lilli Palmer as Lord Olivier's sister and fellow Nazi hunter. Sublime. (I could watch her smoke a cigarette and read the phone book out loud--if we even had phone books anymore!) It's an absolute rollicking adventure and not to be missed. And the story line is sheer genius. "Let's clone Hitler"...that's all I'll say. Throw in Steve Guttenberg as the doomed "young" Nazi hunter and it all just knits together perfectly. Watch it with popcorn. One of my favs. A+ Written by Russ who is Jodi's husband.

a tremendous cast! There is real cloning being done but this film also shows how nurture can change nature.
The scenes w/Peck & Mason are very fine but the one w/Olivier and Peck is even better. I dont even mind the ads bc one has time to use the bathroom or grab a snack and come on back. Highly recommend.

Outstanding blu-ray picture quality, exciting film!

Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2013

Verified Purchase

"The Boys from Brazil" blu-ray has an outstanding, BEAUTIFUL HD picture, with very accurate colors (as with the flesh tones, for example), vivid colors, and it's very sharp . . . yet it's a 1978 film! It looks better than many 1980s films' blu-rays, far better! The audio is loud and very clear. This is several cuts above the DVD version. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Great job on this exciting film's Blu-Ray picture, it was clearly remastered with care. A++.

The story is terrific, it is an exciting, timely movie (cloning was big in the news in 1978, as were reported sightings of WWII Nazi war criminal Dr. Josef Mengele, I remember this all too well from the news of the time; and I saw this movie in a theater in 1978).

The script, story, and acting are first rate, with Gregory Peck amazingly-good as former Auschwitz concentration camp Nazi doctor, Dr. Mengele, in a fictional story about Mengele trying to clone Adolf Hitler-- a project well underway, according to the early part of the movie. The story development is fascinating. The kid actor (Jeremy Black) who plays a teenaged Adolf (playing various clones of him in different countries) is EXCELLENT! One had to be curious about HIM, of all people in this film, and the kid is eerily what we'd expect. Sir Laurence Olivier is his typical brilliant self as Nazi-hunter Lieberman, clearly a mirror of real-life's Simon Wiesenthal. Steve Guttenberg (very early career) and John Rubenstein are good in their abbreviated roles as Jewish-American anti-Nazis. The filming all over the world, from South America to England to Austria to the US, represents simply gorgeous photography. Again, enhanced by a fantastic blu-ray remastering.

The story is a bit hard-to-believe, but is believable enough, esp. so in 1978, to make a good fiction that all knew to be fiction, then. It was "current" then, and hot. It plays JUST AS WELL today.

HIGHLY recommended on all counts!

Justice done to a spellbinding novel. R.I.P. Bruno Ganz.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 16, 2018

Verified Purchase

Back in the 1970's this was considered to be outlandish, fanciful and almost sci-fi in its premise of cloning human beings from a source long dead. I think viewing the film today the idea is totally believable since the scientific advances in DNA and our knowledge of genetics ----- the book is long overdue for another interpretation by Hollywood.

Fantastic film though darkly disturbing with Gregory Peck pivotal as the doctor behind the plot to create a new master race from Adolph Hitler's DNA, a role for him that was quite unlike his own character and totally at odds with most of his performances of heroes in his long career.
Personally I would have swapped his role with Sir Laurence Olivier's down-at-heel Nazi hunter. Sir Laurence had already proved how well he could bring to life a nasty Nazi in 'Marathon Man' and perhaps this was his own choice to redress a balance in his career. But I've always felt that Peck's strident Nazi didn't suit him, a result of type-casting if I'm honest, and his performance was even more chilling for it. How wrong was I.
James Mason quietly defers to both stars in his role as policeman of the whole set-up.

Remains one of the best thrillers of 1978 with a brief appearance by Bruno Ganz who was to give the best and most realistic portrayal of Hitler that I have ever seen later in his career in 'Downfall'.
P.S. Sad to read that Herr Ganz died in February 2019, terminating a long and illustrious career in European cinema.

The (c)loneliness of the long-distance Nazi hunter

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 28, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is a funny film - Laurence Olivier as a central European Jewish Nazi hunter and, heaven help us, Gregory Peck as a BADDIE! And not just any baddie, Dr. Josef Mengele, "The Angel of Death", the infamous practitioner of medical experiments in Auschwitz. In this film, Josef has pulled of the medical experiment sensation of all time, and Olivier is on his trail. It makes for amusing viewing, these two elderly gentlemen with their fake accents, aided and abetted by a sinister James Mason. Ironically, a younger Bruno Ganz also turns up, he of the unparalleled Hitler in "The Downfall". The funniest part of all is when these two elderly gentlemen engage in fisticuffs. Apparently this scene took the longest because of Olivier's frail health, and then stopping the two rolling on the floor laughing about having to stage a fight.

Having said all that, it is an entertaining, if improbable (I hope) film.

Blu- Ray is very good even in a big screen

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 17, 2015

Verified Purchase

Exiting thriller of nazi-hunter and almost unbilievebly idea, that Mengele&co try to copy new Hitler dominating sosial environment with midle-class familys with only son, killing his father. It's almost hardstopping to see Gregory Peck as this kind of role (usually sympatic and warm characters) as a cold, hardles nazi bos- and I mus say; He is really efective.Miss Lili Palmer opposite Olivier is marvelous.
Movie goes in three content (Europe, South America and USA) and there is no dissapointing scenes, story goes on and keep you up the seat.
Blu- Ray is very good even in a big screen; Picture is sharp and colours are in balance. It's so sorry, that they dont do this kind of intellicente movies anymore- everything is action and violance "go,go,go- fuckking ushole" Boys from Brazil does`nt need any line of this kind....

Boys from Brazil

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 10, 2010

Verified Purchase

Absurd but believable.

Josef Mengele alive and well in 70's South America and hatching a plot to clone Hitler. Actually, by the time the movie starts, the clones are already teenagers. Around 100 of them are in the world and in order to replicate the life path of the Nazi dictator, these boys/clones must lose their adoptive fathers. A very young Steve Guttenberg plays the naive but resourceful American boy who uncovers the assassination plots and Laurence Olivier is the old, tired camp survivor Lieberman who takes the investigation further.
I must say that I've never seen Gregory Peck look more repulsive. He plays Mengele, a strong departure from his usual hero roles and one could never guess from the make up that he was an actor with breathtaking good looks. But most striking of all in appearance is Jeremy Black, the teen who plays the Hitler clones with an aplomb that is both haunting and reassuringly innocent.

Ira Levin's story is escapist but feasible.
