Product Description

Amazon.ca

Palestinian terrorists attempt to wipe out a Super Bowl crowd in this 1976 thriller directed by John Frankenheimer (Seconds). Frankenheimer's unique facility with action--the unusual breadth of his view of violence, which stresses sustained drama over escalating thrills--makes this taut movie engrossing from start to finish. The lengthy cat-and-mouse stuff during the big game--much of which was shot at a real Super Bowl--is quite exciting. --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars terrorists plot to blow up packed stadium during Super Bowl Sep 2 2007
By falcon TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
in"Black Sunday" a terrorist plot to blow up the stadium during the
Super Bowl in Miami is discovered.the only problem is,only the
terrorists know how it will be done.it becomes a race against time to
find out and stop the plot.i liked this movie quite a bit.i did think
however,that there was too much information on the terrorist group and
the motivation for the plot.for me,the movie dragged a bit in some of
these scenes.i think the idea was to give the terrorists a more human
face and make them more sympathetic.i could see their side of
things,but i could also see the other side's view.if you have strong
political views,this movie might bother you,as it has its own slant on
things.this kind of thing doesn't really bother me that much.there have
been many movies that portray both he Israeli's and the Palestinians in
good and bad lites.the ending of the film is a real down to the wire
nail biter,which for me,makes up for the slower parts."Black Sunday" is
a 4/5 for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine film and great DVD transfer Jun 8 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
Contrary to prior reviews, this is not Frankenheimer's last good film (check Andersonville 1996), nor is the video quality shabby- its actually a perfect 2.35 transfer, crisp video and good sound. Excellent film, believable plot, Robert Shaw is great, so is Bruce Dern and Martha Keller, what else is there to say- this is probably the best action espionage film of the 1970's and 1980's.

3.0 out of 5 stars Why do they insist on re-editing these movies?
A number of comments made here are based on the TV screening of Black Sunday. Since this is an R rated movies and made for the widescreen, any such review is suspect to start with. Read more
