Product Description
Product Description
Winner of the Best Director Prize at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival, "this misfit love story of disconnected people trying to find one another in an antagonistic world is a comedy of discomfort and rage that turns unexpectedly sweet and pure." Adam Sandler gives an amazing and unusual performance asBarry Egan, a socially impaired owner of a small novelty business, who is dominated by seven sisters and is unlikely to find love unless it finds him. When a mysterious woman comes into his life, hisemotions go haywire, fluctuating between uncontrollable rage, lust and self-doubt. "Punch-Drunk Love leaves you addled, a little dizzy and overcome by a pleasing, unplaceable sensation." "A romantic comedy as wonderful as it is strange that expands the genre to its absurdist outer limits and makes us believe." From the writer/director of Boogie Nights and Magnolia, Punch-Drunk Love is a dark, lovely and unique film experience.
Set Contains:
Punch-Drunk Love is not typical Superbit fare, but the higher bit rate does beautifully present cinematographer Robert Elswit's striking colors, including the Jeremy Blake art. While the sound mix is mostly unobtrusive, there are some vivid moments that are well rendered in DTS. Unlike the majority of Superbit DVDs, there are some extra features on a second disc, and they're as much experiential as informational. A 12-minute piece, "Blossoms & Blood," compiles some alternate takes of events in the Barry-Lena relationship accompanied by Jon Brion's music, and 12 scopitones and a 2.5-minute segment showcase more art and music. There are also two unremarkable alternate scenes plus a mock commercial for Philip Seymour Hoffman's Mattress Man character that will make you wince and probably laugh. --David Horiuchi

- Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2024Great gift for my son
- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2003I'm getting tired of the mindless morons who keep bashing this movie. I'm going to make a few things clear. Listen: If your brand of humor survives mainly on fart jokes, crap humor, and "Jackass" style hijinks, then you need to skip this film. You seriously lack the intellect to handle it. I can't stand how people are being totally close-minded about this wonderful film. This is NOT your normal Sandler film (he proves that he actually CAN act) so if that statement scares you, stay away from this film. If your favorite movie is "Road House," stay away from this film. If you're an all-American, rebel flag waving sort, stay away from this film. If you HAVE to have a "plot" to go along with your movies to keep you on track, stay away from this film. If you're looking for the cliched and overdone happy ending were everything is resolved and you're happy because you've had everything spoon-fed to you, stay away from this film. If you watched "American Beauty" and the ever present scenes of floating rose petals confused the heck out of you, stay away from this film. If you watched "Magnolia" and couldn't get past the "frog storm" because you thought it was stupid, stay away from this film. If you like Chuck Norris, stay away from this film. If you think Steven Seagal is one of the best actors of our time, stay away from this film. If your pride and joy happens to be your brand new Ford pick up sittin' all nice and pretty in the driveway at home, stay away from this film. If you pronounce "Chocolat" as "chowclit!", stay away from this film. If you're dog's name happens to be Rufus, Cletis, Bosco, or Chopper - STAY AWAY FROM THIS FILM! Okay?! Just stay far away and rent "Missing in Action" or "Kindergarten Cop". STAY AWAY!
For all of the other people out there who enjoy REAL cinema, check this one out as soon as possible. You won't be disappointed!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2016I am not surprised fans of most of Sandler's movies are disappointed by this, as this is not an Adam Sandler movie in the sense that his others are. He does not handle any of the production or direction, just the acting of one character. As someone who has followed the career of the director, Paul Thomas Anderson, who has made classics like "Magnolia", "Boogie Nights", "There Will Be Blood", "The Master" and the debatably enjoyable "Inherent Vice", I find Punch Drunk Love to be uniquely stylish and thoroughly well-acted. Sandler ditches the air of superiority felt in movies directed by "Happy Madison", his own production company. He submits to an out of role character in this script and acts out the idiosyncrasies of Barry Egan to perfection. He's anxious, he's abused, he's traumatized, and he's alone. Emily Watson marvelously executed the role of a not-so-damaged but not wired completely straight woman looking for a connection, and her quick attachment to Sandler's character was totally endearing. This is an anxiety filled movie, it's existential and rough around the edges, and that is exactly the way it needs to be. To show just how quickly love can enter into the lives of people who definitely aren't ready for it, yet still make an impact large enough to leave every person involved better for it. A movie watcher who enjoys most Sandler movies will probably not like this movie as it is totally out of character for him. Movie watchers who enjoy movies for every distinct detail and are willing to submit to the wackiness of Paul Thomas Anderson's writing and direction are in for a real treat.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2003For those who are familiar with Adam Sandler's other movies, Punch Drunk love is a reality check. Imagine, if you will, that you actually knew someone like Billy Madison or the Waterboy; that you actually had him as a neighbor or a co-worker. Chances are, against the backdrop of real life, you would find him weird, pathetic, maybe even a little annoying.
That is who Barry Egan is. The protagonist of Punch Drunk Love is every lovable loser Sandler has ever played, except that here, no one actually finds him lovable until one day when two things suddenly drop into his life: a gramaphone and a girl named Lena. And he finds love and true happiness because of these two things.
Punch Drunk Love is a bizarre story. It is funny in the same way the movies Adaptation and Being John Malkovich and Wonder Boys were funny, which means it has a sad kind of comedy. The humor is found in the strange things that loneliness drives Barry to do; the scene where he calls the phone sex line is so awkward that it is hilarious. Philip Seymour Hoffman steals most of the laughs from Sandler in his role as the man who runs the phone sex service; Sandler provokes the tears instead. Emily Watson shows an almost maternal affection in her performance as Lena, and she is wonderful. Luis Guzman is very likable as Barry's assistant Lance, but the best supporting performances go to the actresses who play Barry's seven sisters. They are wicked and abusive without ever seeming to recognize that abnormality of their behavior.
Punch Drunk Love is the only movie that I still laugh out loud and cry repeatedly every time I watch it, and though it is not for everyone, it is truly a work of cinematic art.

5.0 out of 5 stars La mejor película de mi colección
A pesar de que es un producto “usado” llego en perfectas condiciones. Es el producto que elegí y está impecable. Tuve un pequeño problema con la paquetería, pero LastChanceRecords siempre estuvieron atentos hasta que me llegara el producto.
100% recomendable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great film
The film itself is a sorely underrated masterpiece -- but as far as the service is concerned, I believe this was the first time I had ordered a movie online, and I've since done it several more times. Films such as this one (especially the special edition format) are next to impossible to find in chain stores like HMV, Future Shop, Best Buy, et al., so Amazon comes in handy here. My only conceivable gripe would be the cost, but when you struggle for weeks to find these movies in stores, the marginally higher price is worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favrorite Movie of All TIme
It's a very moving movie about a lonely weird guy in the blue suit who found love in a surprisingly unexpected way. PTA used the power of movie to make a modern fairy tale: he gave unconditional love to this one person who needed love the most. Watching this movie makes me cry and laugh at the same time at the awkwardness and desperation for love of the main character. The color sequence in the movie radiates a strange warmness that somehow captures the powerful emotion of love...
