The Seventh Son 3D Blu-ray (2014) [Region Free]

Since it was only 15$ for the one copy I could find I figured what the hell and went ahead and ordered it.

Where did you order your copy from? Here in the USA there was no 3D blu-ray release for The Seventh Son.

I had to order overseas back when it first appeared on blu ray 3D, but later noticed there were a few available on amazon.com at a reasonable price, but I see those are all gone, so I'd guess ebay will have some available hopefully from some trusted sellers.

So I find it funny that people can hail his performance in True Grit but criticize his performance in RIPD and Seventh Son as an old ornery muffle-mouthed killer badass.

Good point.

My reaction to Jeff Bridges' performance is also positive. Yes, he sounds like he has a mouthful of marbles, but his eccentric character traits are what I find intriguing and captivating. At times he is unintentionally hilarious.

I absolutely love the special effects and DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 sound mix. The creatures, the witches, the battles...it's all top notch excitement. Good music score too.

On my system the 3D presentation is exceptional. I cannot watch this movie in 2D because the 3D quality is that much better. I have no complaints about The Seventh Son 3D at all.

Seventh Son 3D is a generally fun movie and I agree, the effects were well done and the 3D especially. Glad you enjoyed it. Ben Barnes as Ward didn't look hopeful as a hero till later in the movie, after he confronted that giant. That's when Jeff Bridges' character started believing in him also. He later used a sword, then that staff to defeat his enemies.

I wish this did better in theaters, but Swords and Sorcery/Fantasy genre is a tough sell in mainstream theaters for a long time now, unless it's based on JRR Tolkien.

I loved this movie! Saw it in theaters in 3d, then eagerly imported the 3d bluray : ) the 3d at home looks even better. Everyone I've showed it to really enjoys it. I'm looking forward to King Arthur legend of the sword 3d on Thursday : ) Even though the box office numbers aren't always the best for this genre, I would like to see it stick around. Always cool to be immersed into another world. Especially when magic is involved : )

It always impresses me when I hear that the 3D blu-ray viewing experience at home is better than the 3D viewing experience in a theater.

Most cinemas suck, and struggle wtih brightness with 2d let alone 3d. A cinema at it's best kills all but the highest end front end projector setups imho. I mean finding one this good is like finding a needle in several hay stacks, but when you do it is glorious.

I just wanted to add that I picked up the Italian 3d version from e-bay and can confirm it is region free. It plays just fine on my Panny bdt330 and my bdt310. I tried to put it in my older non 3d Sony player to see if it will play in 2d, but it is only for 3d playback. The seller I got it from is located in the states and it was 24.95 with shipping included.

Awhile back I bought the Russian version from an ebay seller in Russia. Came with a nice slipcover too.

[CSM101]

I wanted that Russian version, it was my first pick, but the delivery time seemed so far away, and I've had really bad luck with importing recently. I wanted instant gratification so I went with the Italian. It looks fantastic! I never thought I'd get my hands on Seventh Son in 3d. An amazing conversion that really has fun with the format.

[levcore]

The 3D is very good indeed. I love The creature design too, everything else is pretty poor though unfortunately, especially the script and performances.

[Rob26Smith]

anyone know if the italian version is region locked? I see it saying region B, but i can't find that on the back cover.

I thought all of these were region free.....but I'd wait for confirmation. This site lists my Russian copy as region C but on the back of the cover it shows it's actually ABC so region free.

Great, thank you. FYI, amazon.it has 50% off if you buy 3. Might get this and beowulf which is region free as well. Need a 3rd one and you get some sweet deals.

[CSM101]

My pleasure Rob26Smith. I just got the Beowulf 3d like two weeks ago for about 16 bucks. It was a third party seller from amazon US based out of Illinois.
