Product Description:
A german security officer finds a bomb on the zeppelin as it prepares to dock at lakehurst n.J. on may 6 1937. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 04/12/2005 Starring: George C. Scott William Atherton Run time: 125 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Robert Wise
Amazon.com:
"One gasbag meets another" is how critic Pauline Kael described the "flatulent seriousness" that director Robert Wise brought to this 1975 thriller about the ill-fated German zeppelin which exploded while landing in New Jersey in 1937. The great air disaster is speculatively depicted here as an act of sabotage, and the airship's trans-Atlantic journey gives the saboteur's plot plenty of time to unfold while the story introduces a variety of characters aboard for the luxurious flight. While the anti-Nazi message is delivered loud and clear, Anne Bancroft and George C. Scott lead an illustrious cast in what amounts to a pre-World War II episode of The Love Blimp, only there's not much romance and precious little suspense. It's all rather flatly intriguing, but aviation buffs will certainly appreciate the meticulous attention to period detail, and the film won special achievement Oscars for its impressive sound and visual effects. Worth a look, if you're a student of this particular chapter of history, and the movie earns some credit for having at least the kernel of a good idea. --Jeff Shannon

- Well Done, provocative.I saw this movie in the theater as a young boy, it made a lasting impression on me. I've always been taken by the biggest airplane/airship to ever fly. That, plus the level of accomodations that the passengers enjoyed. I bought this film so I could show it to my young son, who has picked up the interest in the Hindenburg from me. Just watched it, and I was very impressed with how the film stands up, especially the special effects (most of them, not all). Yes, the transfer of the film is not ... Read More

- Don't Buy This DVDThe movie itself rates maybe 3 stars; but I could barely watch it because the video quality was horrible. Universal should be ashamed at the graininess of the picture. I was so upset that I had been "taken" that I had trouble concentrating on the story. Furthermore, the explosion of the vessel at the end of the movie was filmed in black and white. I understand why -- it allowed for the interspersement of actual historical footage into the movie -- but it took away from what would have been a ... Read More

- The story is enticing, although a bit weak in scope...Based on true historic events and some conjectured documents come to light in recent years, this may be one of the possible reasons of the catastrophy that befell the legendary "Hindenburg", pride and joy of the Third Reich at the time.
The cast is stellar for its times, including George C. Scott, Anne Bancroft, Gig Young, Charles Durning and a young William Atherton and many others.
But alas, George C. Scott, as a German intelligence Officer is a bit weak and compared with ... Read More

- An interesting conspiracy thriller in a disastrous DVD transferNo film that Pauline Kael despised on principle (in this case the principle that it was directed by Robert Wise) can be all bad, and so it proves with The Hindenburg, which falls somewhere between a countdown-to-catastrophe period political thriller a la Tora! Tora! Tora!, 70s conspiracy movie and by-the-numbers disaster movie. It's as a disaster movie that it fails the most: the destruction of the Hindenburg was simply too quick to make for much of a climax, and playing the famous black and white newsreel ... Read More
