    JACK THE RIPPER: THOROUGH PERIOD DRAMA!
  

*by C***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 March 2023*

Thorough period drama. The film is split into two parts and is lengthy. It is rich in period detail and the killings are covered in graphic detail mirroring the original photography of the period. Michael Caine is superbly cast as the detective in a role similar to his 'Jekyll And Hyde' film also by the same director. The identity of the notorious 'Jack The Ripper' is revealed and will be a surprise to thos who watch it fully. The plot follows the story of a Victorian detective who tries to solve the mystery behind a series of killings in London's Whitechapel district.

    Excellent Movie!
  

*by S***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 August 2013*

This is one of my all time favorite movies and I've watched it several times over the years. I'll first give some notes about the only current blu-ray version which offers English or German language options only.IMPORTANT NOTE:The only blu-ray version of this movie that currently exists is a Region B German release, so it cannot be viewed on US players.NTSC/PAL 'all region' blu-ray players are available on Amazon.com should US customers like to purchase one.Viewers can watch the movie & bonus features in either English or German.Considering this was a 1988 made for TV movie, the audio and video quality are very good.BLU-RAY BONUS FEATURES:Some of the blu-ray extras are also found on previous DVD releases. By far, the best bonus feature on this blu-ray is the audio commentary by David Wickes with researcher Susan Davies and journalist Johnathon Sothcott. Susan Davies did 4 years of extensive research on Jack the Ripper and this movie runs along the lines of a particular theory as to who Jack might actually have been, though no one knows for certain and we will probably never know his identity.There is also a 'Deleted Scenes' extra, but this mostly looks like rehearsal material so in my opinion is not really worth watching a second time. These have Barry Forster as Inspector Abberline, before Michael Caine was finally selected to play that role.For those unfamiliar with Jack, there is a 'Documentation' extra that briefly recounts the actual events that took place in London, 1888.It really would have been nice to include actor interviews and commentary as extra features, and this will hopefully be done on future blu-ray releases.THE MOVIE:Jack the Ripper was released in 1988 to mark the first centenary of the original events. It was first aired in the US as a 2 part TV mini-series. The movie length is 189 minutes.It stars Michael Cane in the lead role as Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline of Scotland Yard and Armand Assante as American actor Richard Mansfield playing the lead in the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde premiere at the Lyceum theatre. Both of these performers were excellent, and I thought all of the players were quite good except for Michael Gothard who over-played the role of Lusk, maybe because that script could have been better and more accurately written to protray the actual Mr. Lusk rather than this hyped up movie version.The story recounts the murder of 5 prostitutes and the hunt for Jack the Ripper. It is not always factually accurate and does employ 'dramatic license' several times to appeal to audiences, but it is a great movie nonetheless. Director/Producer David Wickes and his crew did an excellent job on this film. The cinematography, realistic Victorian settings and costumes are excellent.In 1989, Michael Caine won the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV, and Armand Assante was Nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV. The movie was also Nominated for Best Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for TV.Release Date: 21 October 1988 (USA)DIRECTED BY DAVID WICKESWRITING CREDITS: DEREK MARLOWE & DAVID WICKESPRODUCER: DAVID WICKESORIGINAL MUSIC BY JOHN CAMERONCAST:MICHAEL CAINE - CHIEF INSP.
