 Written on May 20, 2008 Summary: Blu-Ray Version Suffers from Jittery Picture Reviews of the movie aside, I was disappointed to see that the transfer of this movie to Blu-Ray actually "jitters" up and down--and not just the earthquake-ish scenes where its supposed to do that. With a 1080 122" screen, it's painfully evident: you can pause the movie and watch the entire picture bob up and down two or three pixels by scanning forward frame-by-frame. The shot where the shadow crosses the World Trade Center is a big offender, but you can even see it during the closing credits. It's almost as if the projector that was used to do the transfer couldn't hold the picture steady from one frame to the next. I have another 20th Century Fox movie that does this during the opening Fox fanfare (Ice Age), but the movie itself is perfectly fine since each frame there is computer animated. Movies from other distributors seem to be fine, but watching this one on a large home theater screen can quickly get annoying.  Written on May 15, 2008 Summary: Good video/audio but missing extended version The blu-ray video transfer is great as is the audio, but I was disappointed that the extended version of the film wasn't included, as it was on the regular DVD. Other than that, I'd have given it a "5".  Written on May 2, 2008 Summary: ID4 never looked so good Now when I watch a SD movie it looks washed out, HiDef is the only way for me, compare your old SD ID4 with the Blu Ray ID4, you will see the difference.  Written on April 29, 2008 Summary: Drivel, I want that hour and a half of my life back This is a really stupid movie. It's not original in any way, a bad montage of tired science fiction and action comedy cliches that make the movie both highly predictable and completely unexiting. The epitome of special effects without sensible plot. Even the talented actors in here go to waste with foolish lines, impossible physics, over the top action sequences, the movie is just bad in every way possible. It's interesting how the high minded science fiction with the cheesy special effects in the 1960s (Star Trek envisioned a future where we somehow cured poverty and racism), and the feel-good triumph of good over evil (Star Wars made us all cheer) of the 70's, gave way to the explosions for the short attention span audiences at the close of the 20th Century. To enjoy any science fiction movie, you have to buy into the fictional science of the movie, it has to seem realistic. Well that wasn't too hard in Alien, because we can all relate to being scared of something we don't really know or understand. Here's a typical problem in Independence Day. You ever rent a car, and find you can't just pull out of the airport parking lot because you can't figure out how the unfamiliar car starts up, gets into gear, where the headlights are, the wipers, the seat controls? And yet, in this movie, you can apparently hop right into an alien flying vehicle and not just take for a spin, but save the planet. The only time I saw this horrendous movie, I saw the "I sure picked the wrong day to give up drinking" line coming from a mile off, and the fact that the script writers would try to pull this off years AFTER "Airplane," well it really makes it clear that Hollywood doesn't think very highly of the typical American moviegoer. Written on April 26, 2008 Summary: Awesome This movie is my favorite sci-fi end of the world kind of movie. Ive got like 3 versions of it on DVD and VHS and now on blu-ray. I didnt mind that it wasnt the extended version cuz the extra minutes didnt change the movie at all. They were just added moments to a cities destruction or about why the kids father doesnt like him so much or something. In any rate I definatly give this movie a 5 star rating. |
