Just got done watching this rls, and John Woo has done it again. Its not as action packed as some of his films, but the story was excellent.

The movie was stretched out of proportion. It was 4x3 and squished because it was meant for 16x9. If the program your watching it on can put it back to the right aspect ratio it looks fine. The sides were a bit chopped off from the capture, but it didn't detract too much fom teh movie past the first 5 minutes. The only real problem with this release was all the heads bobbing through the movie constantly.

ummm just watched it and i gotta say mpt did an ok job with this . The audio was sub-par but not terrible and besides the peoples heads in the theartre showing up from time to time the video was half-decent as well . I'd say dl this if you are like me and couldent wait to see it but if u like quality u should maybe wait on a better release it is screener season afterall. But good pre mpt 7/5/8

8/7/8 First good Affleck movie in awhile.

video: 7
audio: 6
movie: 7

anyone notice the dots on d2 on frames 31219-31221

This is zoomed in WAY TOO MUCH. The colors look really good and it does not seem pixelated much on the standalone. The audio has a hiss which you can get used to. Some heads walking around and such, but that is not too bad either. The big problem here is the full screen, way zoomed in and the off center framing. I think you'd be missing way too much of the action in this flick by watching a four foot square in the center of the screen instead of seeing the whole thing.
I'd wait. I only watched disk one.

the audio has a hiss which sucks balls - 5. The video I would give a 7

Isn't anybody bothered by the horrible angle?

very nice release MPT, very fast
8/8/9

watchable pre , kudos for getting it. a little cropped but hey its free :-)
7 7 9

"FIXED" mine by re-encoding at 16.9 and did a simple de-hiss edit..... as for the bobbing heads and the guy with the weak bladder going to the john every 10 mins it was and still is a damn good PRE

Video is just ok. The angle makes the heads as long as the screen! I hate that!
Audio is so so. Hiss problem remedied (to some degree, anyhoo) by my EQ.
Overall movie: meh.
I guess Ben Assfleck went to the Keanu Reeves school of acting, eh? I thought his performance was sub par; wooden if you will. And Jon Woo can do better...
6/5/6

Watched this release the other day.

6/6/7

Nice Video except all the damned heads/people popping out and the really annoying head on the right. Sound was decent except it had glitches like The Haunted Mansion. I just can't believe this many people can't hold it for 2 hours. When I pay to see a movie (especially a good one) in the theater I want to watch the whole thing. Movie was pretty good too.

6.0 (with heads)-7.5 (without heads) /7/8

I have to rate the video and audio high. I thought it was a great job, crystal clear, aside from two things that I am not counting against the rating. The people getting up, stretching, putting on their jackets, etc were annoying, but the group had no control over that. Also the fact that it was full screen with some major crop damage. Imagine if they had zoomed out, how many more people would have been see jumping around?

Audio was good TS, major hissing at the very beginning of cd1.

The movie itself reminded me of a weak 'Minority Report'. If you liked that, than this is it's weaker half. I have yet to see a Ben Affleck or Matt Damon that I could say that I really enjoyed. I like them together, apart, they always have a role that just a little too sensitive.

8/9/6

movie sucks

this movie sucks, the quality in my opinion and audio both suck, but that is because I only like the dvd rips anyway. But anyway that does not matter if this was crap quality because the movie totally sucked and had some really horrible acting in it, but again if you watch a movie with shit quality such as vhs screeners or telesync then you are actually ruining the movie for your self and your not letting the movie have a chance.

Re: movie sucks

Anyway...
Audio: 6.5 -- Could use some polishing, and there are recurring moments of annoying static/interference (especially through a nice stereo).
Video: 6 -- Noticeable angle, cut off left/right, picture stretched to 4:3, people playing musical chairs up front, etc.
Movie: ? -- I was "distracted" too much while watching it.

juding from the sample only.... I don't really know about this one... its kind of choppy, fullscreen cropped, angle... blah... 5/7/?

this is just dog poor for mpt after releasing a great version of haunted mansion..what happened guys..

4/4/?
