The Producers has been restored in 4K by Kino Lorber for this new Special Edition Blu-ray. They’ve also ported over most of the bonus features from previous releases and have tossed in a new commentary track with filmmaker and historian Michael Schlesinger.

I know the 1968 movie The Producers virtually by heart, and it s one of the funniest movies I ve ever seen. That makes it tricky for me to review this 2005 musical version both because it s different, and because so often it is the same. There are stretches in Susan Stroman s opening scenes that follow Mel Brooks 1968 version so closely it s as if Gus Van Sant, having finished his shot-by-shot remake of Psycho, advanced directly to this assignment.
The new movie is a success, that I know. How much of a success, I cannot be sure. Someone who has seen the original once or twice, or never, would be a better judge. It is unfair to observe of Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick that they are not Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder, but there you have it: They re not.
