2.0 out of 5 stars A Disappointing Blu Ray. 4 Sep 2010
By Mr Ons
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
Please note that Amazon have decided to put this review on both the Park Circus and the Criterion blu-ray pages. The review I posted below concerns the Park Circus blu-ray only, and I neither intended nor expected it to crop up on the Criterion blu-ray page.

Park Circus seem to have got things the wrong way round here. The 1925 original (restored by Kevin Brownlow) is the version that people want to see on Blu Ray, not the 1942 version with Chaplin's commentary. The DVD contains everything, including all the extras and Brownlow's restoration of the 1925 original, whilst the Blu Ray only contains the 1942 version of The Gold Rush. All in all this release is not what it appears to be ... disappointing and deliberately misleading. Caveat emptor.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Gold Fraud 30 Aug 2010
By Michael
Format:Blu-ray
Beware! Only the inferior 1942 version is included on the blu-ray disc, and the image quality is only so-so. Wait until you get a better offer.

This DVD has the origional silent film with bacground music and also the later version on which a commentary was added. The silent one is better.
