Streaming Meatballs Online.
Movie Title: Meatballs Meatballs is available for streaming or downloading. |
This is one of my favorite movies from childhood, and I still love it (I’m now 27).
Bill Murray is terrific as head counselor Tripper Harrison in this warm and funny feel-great movie. All of the players in the ensemble cast are good, and the music is also really effective. If you like summer, good times, goofy humor, if you were born in the seventies (or even if you weren’t) check out “Meatballs”. It’s a great way to spend a Friday evening–make something strange for a midnight snack and put on “Meatballs”.
As for the DVD transfer, here are a couple of comments:
1. It does include the trailer. 2. It’s a “matted” widescreen version, which means you actually see less than you do on the full-screen VHS version, because they simply lay black bars across the top and bottom of the full-screen image (I compared the two versions scene-to-scene). 3. For some reason, some of the music has been changed in the DVD version. I found this unfortunate, because the music is one of my favorite parts of the movie. Whenever the song “Meatballs” plays, for instance, an alternate version is played. Also, the “Makin’ It” song at the “big social” scene is cut differently.
Aside from these few complaints, I’ll still give the disc five stars, because I love the movie so much.
Update: Just received mine last week (6/14/07) and it is ONE disc, not two. Picture quality is BEAUTIFUL! The night scenes are actually not one big black blob!
