Have always enjoyed ‘The Quiet Man’. Fantastic movie that the entire family can enjoy together. I appreciate the special energy which accompanies any John Wayne/Maureen O’Hara movie. The Quiet Man is probably their best ‘duet’ of all. Had the DVD but wanted a better quality disc to enjoy. Glad to have this addition to my video library.

The Blu-Ray disc brought out all the beauty & vivid rich colors of the Irish countryside. It was drama; it was comedy; it was love; it was the culture of the Irish people. It was all that I remembered from years ago when I first viewed this classic movie. You will laugh hilariously and love the fabulous and famous fight scene so often characteristic of John Wayne movies. Buy it. You won't regret owning this classic movie done over in true movie theater style.

If you haven't seen a John Wayne movie in a while, or only remember him from Western's, this is a nice diversion. Filmed in Ireland, with John Wayne taking on a role of a retired boxer, who has come to claim his original family homestead. He falls in love with a pretty redhead, whose brother stands in the way of their courtship and subsequent marriage. This is an "old fashioned values" movie, with John Wayne literally, dragging his wife around by the arm, and ocassionally kicking her in the butt, but.., if you can look past these absurdities .it's still fun at times. And climaxes with a fisticuff showdown, between the Duke and his brother-in-law. I still can't figure out what is "Quiet" about the "Quiet man". But it does have a time capsule look and feel to it. The blu ray version of this, is really great for the symphonic scene music throughout.Read full review
The movie came in on time and the quality was as expected. If you're into classic movies and haven't seen it yet, it's definitely one to check out. I feel The Quiet Man was one of John Wayne's unpolished diamonds. It's not a Western or War Movie, but the characters have depth and the story is very good for its time.
