UHD Review The Princess Bride – Criterion UHD Blu-ray Review (1 Viewer)

[t1g3r5fan]

The son of actor/writer/director Carl Reiner, Rob Reiner followed in his father’s footsteps in show business; after getting his start as a writer in TV for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, he first attracted widespread attention for playing Archie Bunker’s son-in-law Michael Stivic in All in the Family (1971-1979). By the 1980’s, he also added the title director to his resume – just like his dad did – starting with the mockumentary This is Spinal Tap (1984), but he would achieve his most enduring accomplishment with an adaptation of William Goldman’s The Princess Bride. Released on DVD and Blu-ray several times by MGM and given a Criterion edition in 2018 (HTF’s Matt Hough reviewed that release here), Criterion has revisited the movie again for a brand new UHD Blu-ray release.
