Excited to experience this as a first time viewer, was a blind buy but I'm sure I won't regret it. Come on mailman, deliver!

What a great film. It had my attention the entire way. Great image quality to boot especially being a period piece film.

And also i was wondering what anyone who watched it for the first time thought of the film?

I've seen it at the cinema in my teens, and though I was lost in the names and history and stuff, I LOVED it!!
It has great aesthetics!

I certainly hope that the subtitles are optional and easy to remove.

I watched my copy of Cohen's release of this today and I highly enjoyed this film.

That massacre scene about 45 minutes in is brutal, and the music that is playing while it's happening totally sets it off. After the scene finished I had to rewind it and watch it again.

Like it says on the back cover this release, the performances in this film are passionate. I was especially impressed with Jean-Hugues Anglade who plays King Charles IX. The nuances of all the emotion he displayed floored me. And it obviously goes without saying that Adjani is top notch in this film as well.

This film is excellent and I look forward to future rewatches.

Had never head of this movie until just now while browsing Target's site and trying to put together one more order during their B2G1F sale. So thanks guys, you indirectly convinced me to order this. I hate movies set in the old days. Will that be a problem?

No English subtitles though ? Which is a damn shame.

Anyone seen the German 4K? How does it compare to the 1080p blu-rays?
