just dont get it
on January 24, 2008
Posted by: mac04
i got this cuz im not much of a gamer and i thought it would just be something to do for 45 mins or so but wow this game is badddd. even the graphics arent that great. its fun for the first day but i think most of that is the fact you got something new and not the game itself. the loading upon loading is very annoying. i cant even begin to start on small glitches that will ruin the game play, like just running and all of a sudden you slow down for no reason and things go into slowmode and then pop out of it in 5 seconds. i wouldnt even say this game is for little kids its just an incomplete game that they rushed to get on the market. and going around talking to people is a zelda sort of thing not something you put into a sonic game. sonic games have a start a finish and how fast and how many rings can you get in a certain amount of time. they should have spent a few more months and put some more fun things in the levels and cleaned up the gameplay. im glad i only spent 20 bucks on this. you guys still want this game my copy will be at the local disc replay within a few days.
What's great about it: ummmm ill let you know when i find one

action and sound!

blue ray brought its A game on this movie. Action and Sound unreal, my bass was blasting and my rear speakers were holding their own with the front ones. the movie had a "Land of the Dead" type feel to it but with the Resident Evil storyline. great movie i just dont think it deserves a full 5 stars due to a 90 minute movie with 60 minutes of worth while story to it. still a must see for any HD tv viewer.

whats with putting jason statham in these low budget action movies. pointless storyline. just overall a bad movie. only reason i didnt give it one star was because sometimes you need a pointless movie and just kick back and not have to pay attention or keep track of characters. thats when Crank comes off my shelf. if you do decide to watch this dont try to understand it or put logic to it you just take it for what its worth a action movie that will keep you busy for an hour and a half.
What's great about it: action
What's not so great: bad storyline, not believable, unreal in the end

groundbreaking
on January 19, 2008

Very well remastered. They definately put some time into cleaning this 1982 classic up. 5 disc collectors set includes Final Cut, Theatrical US, Theatrical International and the rare Workprint version. All versions in Full High Definition 1080p. 9 hours of special features. All in full 5.1 surround sound. This is the movie that was the base for all future Sci Fi movies for the look and feel to this very day. To name a few...Fifth Element, Matrix, and Total Recall. Must own Blueray if you like sci fi movies, enjoyed the original or a movie collector.
What's not so great: confusing and odd in parts

this movie will definately put your surround sound to the test. intense violent battles throughout make this much more a guy movie. a more small scale movie compared to say Troy where the space just feels more open and you can get a sense of the surroundings. very uniquely done. definately a Frank Miller movie. check it out.

new bond is here to stay
on January 19, 2008
Posted by: mac04
he may be blond and have blue eyes but i sure wouldnt get in his way. i to among others were worried the Bond series was going down the drain but they pulled it off for the most part. style meets action in the newest James Bond movie. not as many action scenes as the Brosnan films but still the same character personality. overall a good movie.
What's not so great: slow in certain parts

very funny
on January 13, 2008
Posted by: mac04
i just have to add to the many reviews of how funny this movie is. yes it the whole movie is basically dialog and alot of character interaction but it is some of the funniest material ive heard in a movie for awhile. the movie honestly doesnt really needed to be viewed in HD though, save the 10-15 dollars and get the unrated dvd. the transfer to blue ray isnt anything special.

great movie
on January 4, 2008
Posted by: mac04
not as noticable high def as pirates or spiderman but if you pay attention you'll notice the difference. great movie, i've upgraded on each format (vhs-dvd-blueray). documentaries, outakes, featurettes. you will prolly have to adjust the settings because it can be hard to get a good picture due to the blackness of much of the movie.
What's great about it: high def, action

the tony hawk era is over
on December 30, 2007
Posted by: mac04
Great new skateboard game. It can be difficult getting used to the controls especially if you've been into the Tony Hawk series for the last decade. But the options of board contol and manuverability make up for the hour or two it will take to overcome it. If your into skateboarding you will be amazed at the similarity to real life. Manuals aren't just forward-backward-balance. You have to find the "sweet spot" in between riding four wheels and leaning far back. The point system is nothing like Tony Hawk games. No more 2 million combo runs. Common lines are a few thousand. Video editing is just another perk in the game. Peice together skate photage and many different camera angles with many filters to make completely unique videos to share and store. Start from the bottom with playing S.K.A.T.E with locals to being a full sponsored skateboarder in this next generation real life skateboard game. Skateboard through the winter, purchase SKATE.
What's great about it: graphics,controls,video editing,huge interactive levels
What's not so great: camera angles difficult sometimes on setting up a trick
