Amadeus

I like the director cut better than the original. It makes the movie make more sense. The added minutes were really helpful. I don’t see how people don’t like it.

There are a lot of reasons Amadeus is the best music history movie of all time. For some reason the verison i saw was the director's cut not the theatrical cut so dame shame. Either way Amadeus even without the original cut this movie is masterpiece because you have this court composer Antonio Salleri who after getting transeferd to the mental instutition which is a reference to Milos Forman's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Salleri tells his exprience and working with the spoiled and bratty Wolfgang Amdeus Mozart who is the king of music and he gets what he wants and i like that character study and his ark. This film really oversites the spolied Amadeus as he descents into madness with his rich fooly and his failed plays i enjoyed a well-made Amadeus character study then a biopic of Wolfgang but the actor who played Amadeus looked like a young Ryan Gosling so bad choice Hollywood 10/10

Great movie , if you don’t like it you miss the art part of it. Soundtrack is fantastic, and Falco who wrote and sang the theme song. “Rock me Amadeus”, is one of my favorite songs. What a tribute to an outstanding artist, from another!

Rotten Tomatoes gives the theatrical version a score of 93. The director’s cut is unrated. The original version is far superior and, unfortunately, unavailable.

A great story about a beyond great composer

Additional material does nothing for the story. Why is the theatrical version not available?

I unwittingly acquired the directors version. What a waste of money and space I truly wish it were completely eraseable from itoons in memory I would love to just listen to the theatrical version of the movie overall the directors version - in the words of salieri replace one (line) there would be diminishment replace one phrase the structure would fall. the theatrical version was great why not just leave it at that that was truly the directors cut yea he had to cut it to make the theatrical version call this silly version something to help you steer clear try amadeus - added gibberish or amadues - my stool included Maybe - amadeus too many notes There it is.

Pretty good

The history is inaccurate, though there are some historical tidbits that have a tiny bit if this if you look it up. but not really relevant. The what if they run with is exceptionally well done and exposes the thesis well which is the genius and the talented enough to recognize he is not the genius the other is - and the fairness of life/God in that. Besides, you will be exposed to real composed music and will as well learn something if you are not as familiar.

I love Amadeus. The struggle of Salieri is so real for anyone who lives with impossible passion. Every character is deep and the music amazing. But for the love of all good entertainment, don't watch the directors cut. It changes the story line just too much and in all the wrong ways. Stay with the released version. The theatre released version is just soooo good.
