Bridge at Remagen is a well made and beautifully shot WWII-era film that features some fine performances, particularly from George Segal and Robert Vaughn. The Blu-ray release by Twilight Time offers good video and audio transfers but falls well short in the features department.

PLOT SYNOPSIS
|
| Fatigued by the long combat in Europe, Lt. Phil Hartman (GEORGE SEGAL) and his men are ordered to advance on Remagen, a possible toehold into enemy territory. Meanwhile, Maj. Paul Kreuger (ROBERT VAUGHN) of the German armed forces is ordered to defend the town and the nearby bridge across the Rhine. As a desperate battle commences, Hartman and Kreuger both find themselves pawns of larger forces and witness how war can turn each side against itself. |
SPECIAL FEATURES – 0.5/5 |
| This release comes with the usual 8-page booklet and the film’s Original Theatrical Trailer (3:04; HD). |
VIDEO – 3.75/5, AUDIO – 3.5/5
|
| Twilight Time releases The Bridge at Remagen onto Blu-ray with a 1080p high-definition transfer and presented in its original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio. It’s a fine looking picture with natural looking skin tones for the well-lit scenes while detail was relatively sharp and free of apparent flaws like scratches, specs, etc.
The disc comes with a basic but effective DTS-HD Master Audio Mono track which provides clear dialogue levels and some modest depth in regards to the action sequences. |
OVERALL – 3.0/5 |
|
Overall, Bridge at Remagen is a well made and beautifully shot WWII-era film that features some fine performances, particularly from George Segal and Robert Vaughn. The Blu-ray release by Twilight Time offers good video and audio transfers but falls well short in the features department. |
