    The Earthling Remastered Blu-ray edition. BRAVO!
  

*by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2019*

I am putting this review up not to tell you the story of this movie. Many other reviewer’s have said everything that you need to know. This is a movie that you simply don’t want to miss.The Blu-ray remastered version of this movie is something that you have to see for yourself. If you love this movie and you’ve long to see it in high-quality, then please grab yourself a copy of the Blu-ray remastered edition by Kino Lorber.I am a big fan of Kino Lorber, they do a very good job of taking really good VHS movies that have suffered from low-quality and restoring them. It is very impressive that they have been able to take this movie and rescue it for us all.This version of this wonderful movie is highly recommended by at least myself! If you’re a fan of this movie, and you love everything about this movie, grab yourself a copy of the remastered Blu-ray version.Yes, I know, I am repeating myself. But that is because I am absolutely blown away by what they have done to rescue this movie. And you will be too.

    Why I don't like movies
  

*by R***T on Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2020*

It's the improbable stories that really get to me.  This film is well shot, well edited, well acted, well directed, but I just can't help but wonder why the main characters didn't try to head for civilization.  And why Australia?  How come this didn't happen in ... I don't know ... Wyoming or Nebraska or some place.It's a film that's really bothered me over the years because of the improbable premise; a terminally ill man helps a boy survive by showing him how to live in the wilds.  Eh, okay, it has a kind of attraction to it, but to me it sounds more reasonable on paper than seeing it on film, because in the end a ten year old kid has to make his way back to civilization to tell them about all he experienced.I guess my other minor beef here is that "Earthling", to me at least, conjures images of spaceships landing on far away worlds and meeting short green skinned aliens with pointy years.  I mean I get it's used here poetically, but with all of the bait and switch in behavioral science that's in films, I just can't help but feel that this is ... a misuse of a science fiction cliche.Just a guess here, and this is based on all the other films I've seen in the past, and that is this is probably based off of a real incident that didn't end so well.  The mind reels as to what actually happened.  Was the RV hijacked?  Did they all actually die?  As the older man an ex-con?  Hollywood has a tendency to take bad stories and turn them into good ones, at which point I lost interest in films altogether.  So it is that I wonder about the real circumstances of this film, and, stranger yet, wonder if it has any ties to Disney's "The Rescuers Down Under".Again, I'm sorry, but man worth his salt, terminally ill or no, would have taken that kid back to the main road, and found a ranger or something to help him out.  End of story.Otherwise, yeah, it's a good looking film with lots of interesting shots and so forth.Make of that what you will.

    Blu-Ray Version is GOLD!
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2021*

This review is the Bluray Version. My advice is to Skip the VHS version and the DVD version and Get the BluRay.  It has been remastered and is WIDESCREEN (1:85:1)!!!  To be fair, it does look grainy in some places but it is a high quality (Hi-Def) transfer from Film to BluRay so you're getting. high definition look at the film.  I previously had only the VHS version and I did my own transfer to digital which didn't look great but it was ok.  When the DVD came out the reviews seemed to Indicate the DVD version wasn't much better.  Then I saw BluRay and I found footage on Youtube from Kino Lorber and although the footage looked great, something was wrong.  The footage on Youtube is from the less popular international version which is ALSO included on the BluRay. My advice again is skip the international version.  The music score if so bland it makes the movie very depressing.  The Halfway home theme is gone and so is the scene at the end with a young Ricky Schroeder stacking the stones on Foley's grave. There is also some extra dialog between the parents just before they plummet to their deaths which seem to suggest the marriage is not all roses.  If you've never seen the movie or want to reminisce, skip it and stay with the U.S. Version.  If you do see the Kino Lorber footage on YouTube just know, it's the international version, but the quality is on par with the U.S. version, and both are on this disc.
