Frantic  — Reissue 08/19/25

Another reissue disc that we wish were revived in an extras-laden 4K edition. Roman Polanski’s exceedingly rewarding thriller gives us Harrison Ford at his very best as an American doctor trying to recover his wife kidnapped at the outset of their Parisian getaway. Was the appeal more for middle-agers than kids?  Not funny enough?  Not ‘Indy’ enough?  If you skipped this one back in the day, you’ll now find it an intense, richly rewarding experience. The soundtrack is one of Ennio Morricone’s best of the 1980s. It’s on a double bill disc, with another Harrison Ford mystery drama. On Blu-ray from Warner Bros.
