I have been waiting to view this for a while, but been unable to.  I previously watched parts of the film before while traveling and thought it would be very campy (white haired villain, horse painted with zebra stripes).

However, this turned out not to be the case.  Sure it has some minor moments, but I think Peter Jackson's films are much worse.

As for the film, the presentation is very nice.  The colors seemed a bit red on my screen, but it most likely is due to the film's age.  (I have seen 35mm that looked far worse from aging.)  I have only listened to the 2-channel PCM and it sounds just fine.  I will listen to the others at a future date.  Great job Team Blu!

Going back to the movie, it had a decent budget.  I just can't see it being made today with the children playing young Sheena and the mass quantity of animals.  I didn't think acting was all that bad either.
