Casablanca: easy to enter, but much harder to leave, especially if you’re wanted by the Nazis. Such a man is Resistance leader Victor Laszlo (Paul Henreid), whose only hope is Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart), a cynical American who sticks his neck out for no one – especially Victor’s wife Ilsa (Ingrid Bergman), the ex-lover who broke his heart. Ilsa offers herself in exchange for Laszlo’s transport out of the country and bitter Rick must decide what counts more – personal happiness or countless lives hanging in the balance.

A classic? I don’t think that I have ever seen such an artificial and boring love story in my entire life.
I didn’t cry. I moaned and groaned, and waited to get these two people that I didn’t care about off my T.V. screen. I just did not like any of the characters. The actors were like lifeless cardboard cut-outs, reading their lines.
It’s an old classic to some, but definitely not for everybody.

Learn how to read, dude. The format says black and white. The slip case is just in color.

This is one of the greatest movies ever made, and the transfer to Blu-Ray looks and sounds great, but why isn’t it in widescreen format? I’m pretty sure that even back in the 1940′s, feature films were shot in a widescreen format to be shown in movie theatres. Why couldn’t they take the original widescreen version of this film and transfer it to Blu-Ray? Instead it’s in the standard 4:3 television aspect ratio.

Unlike the previous reveiwer, I know this is one of the best movies period, and very enjoyable to all ages. Bogarts performance was one of the best ever on the silver screne, the only draw back I can understand a new viewer is that its a little dated. But, the movie is a timeless classic. Look, don’t read whats on amazon to make your oppion. Look on IMDB.If you think its an age thing Im 25; and the people I have had see it they all loved it and are under 26.
