First class production that stands up remarkably well for its age. Solid story and performances, but it falls short of David Lean's masterpiece - Lawrence of Arabia - which hit the screens just five years later. You can certainly see telltale signs of Lean's early genius.

The story is fine, the only reason I want to watch this movie because of Bill Holden.

The movie, itself, is excellent (5 stars). The seller listed this as "New", however, I disagree. While it came shrink-wrapped, it was the softer plastic and not the crinkly stuff. There was no sealing tape on the edge of the clamshell. Finally, there were 2 small smudges on the disk, itself. I was able to carefully clean off the smudges and the disk played fine. I buy only New and expect something listed that way to be New...and not Used--Excellent. So, this rating is really for the seller.

not up to my expectation as I feel my DVD version is far superior

They used the same source film made originally for DVD. The Blu-ray version adds just a little. Definitely not worth buying if you already own the DVD.

I have returned two copies of this BluRay due to loud clicks and pops in the audio track. The video is more than acceptable although not "stunning", but the DTS audio is surprisingly defective. This was the case on two different top of the line Pioneer Elite BluRay players. I would not recommend this purchase until a new pressing is available.

This motion picture, like most war films is fictitous. The building of a bridge over the river Kwai presented a group of captured British soldiers merrily working on this project. Notice none of them seem overly concerned that they are p-o-w's. Bill Holden, freshly shaved and tanned does his bit. Not all that good.
