5.0 out of 5 stars The Magellanic Cloud 13 Jun 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Wow. Just read on Second Run DVD and pre-ordered here on Amazon.UK. Based on the Magellanic Cloud by Stanislaw Lem which i desperately want to read but a chance to find that book in English is similar to looking for a needle in a haystack. I already searched on all Amazon's and on bookfinder and...but hey if anyone out there dangling in cyberspace can help me out on this let me know. I only found a Russian version i hey i do not comprehend Russian. Maybe never to old to learn though then maybe i also understand Tarkovsky's films better. I am longing for a long hot summer however can't wait to see this. Thank you Second Run.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cool old-school Czech Sci-Fi 9 Jan 2011
By E. F. Kohler - Published on Amazon.com

I highly recommend this original Czech version of a moody B&W classic. The English subtitles are intermittent, full of typos, and a little skittish at times (there are occasions where you may want to pause the DVD to read a subtitle that's on the screen for a second or less) but ultimately it's the lighting, tone and set design that make this film worth watching. Sure, some of the spacehip walls have ripples in them and the ship wobbles a bit when moving through space, but overall it's a really nice-looking film. And there's a fair amount of subtlety in the performances too. This may bore folks who prefer the ham-fisted acting typical of today's Sci-Fi films. I have to mention the great quirky music. Also fantastic. Especially the dance scene. Yes, there is a dance club (of sorts) on board the ship. Makes a great addition to the DEFA Sci-Fi Collection.The DEFA Sci-Fi Collection

5.0 out of 5 stars A great find! 28 April 2011
By Mark S. Detwiler - Published on Amazon.com

I remember watching this movie in a theatre as a kid (1964) paired with "Godzilla vs The Thing". I was enthralled by it though it was the english language version titled "Voyage To The End of the Universe". I was thrilled when the original Czech version with original ending was available and in its original WS aspect ratio. This version is superior to the english version released in the US and the ending makes more sense, as opposed the "americanized" alternate ending. It played flawlessly in my region free DVD player (Pioneer DV610av). The only complaint I have is the English subtitles somtimes flash in and out too quickly to read but you still get the gist of what the actors are speaking. Still worth 5 stars

Oh this is so painful!
I watched the modified-for-US-audience version of this film back around 1965 in the Arcadia Theater, Kerrville Texas. I was just shy of puberty.
This film was refreshingly different from what was served up as Science Fiction film up to that point. It had characters and interpersonal dynamics that seemed , and the plot line was centered on those dynamics rather than some trumped up alien threat. The film was plainly sliced up prior to release in the USA, and of course it was dubbed.
I have always wanted to see XB-1 in its original form, in its original language, even though that language was Czech, and I do not speak Czech. But along came this DVD, and it promised that this was the real deal, the original un-compromised prime example of Eastern European, Iron Curtain era science fiction.

Alas, just because it is a DVD, and just because this is the 21st Century, and just because all kinds of media are interchanged internationally, this recording is only in Czech. There is no selection menu allowing for language subtitles. It is in Czech. Only in Czech.

If you are fluent in Czech, by all means, buy this DVD.
