thats why i wanted to join you guys....your the only group still kickin!

Wow, after the Librium release, this is like watching a whole different movie! I wish this release had come sooner, but it's still beautiful and much appreciated.

10/8/9

Video is DVD quality. I've only seen one or two TC's with video this good and never any better.

Audio is very good and clearly direct, just not as good as the video. A bit low and with a bit of white noise (maybe from an analog source?). That's nitpicking though.

Movie is one of my favorites of 2006, maybe top five. Edward Norton is the shit and Paul Giamatti was used well in this one. Rufus Sewell played a good villian too. Biel was okay. Not as hot looking as usual and her acting doesn't hold up with the rest of the cast, but it was good enough.

First rate release all around.

Another excellent release regardless of the source. If PUKKA keeps this up it will become the benchmark from which other releases will be rated for quality. Congrats PUKKA and stay consistent.


V 9


A 9


M ? Will watch when time permits. Ed Norton is one of the best.

9/7/9


Edit sound, didn't notice the hiss the first time I watched it....sigh....

Still worth watching...


Great movie and Great quality.

great rip of great movie

V: 9
A: 7

Very sweet video. Audio is good, but does have some faint static to it. Not FM static, but rather a constant hiss the entire length of the movie. A little filtering, and its almost gone! Thanks for this great release, its one of the best i've seen in a while.

CATBOX

V - 9.5 Just about as good as it gets
A - 8 Still very good, even with a slight hiss
M - ? Looks good, but will watch in its entirity tonight

Very good release! Sound is far from perfect, but not a huge problem either. And it`s an excellent movie!

A - 7
M - 9

Watched this on the TV the other night.

Great TC. Video was sharp, colors decent (it's a dark, period piece movie) and the audio was excellent. I didn't notice any hissing on my 5.1 setup.

Movie was amazing. One of the better I've seen in a while. Whats funny is I grabbed this on accident, thinking it was "prestige" - anyhow, I'm glad I did, excellent film.

V:8.5
A:8.5
M: 9

Watched this the night the rls came out and forgot to comment.

V- 9.5.. Awesome TC pukka. Hope to see more in the future

A- 6 Wasnt real bad, but the high end hiss gets annoying when you watch it on 6.1 dolby digital.

M-10 Norton rocks, awesome special effects, great story line

Good, and yet... nuke

[NUKED-Improper.framerate.Movie.sped.up]

Source framerate of the movie is 23.976, NOT 25. Aside from the chipmunk-esque audio this is evident by the runtime. IMDB lists the runtime as 110 minutes, but the nfo lists it at 105:41. Multiply that by 25, divide by 23.976 and you get, shocker, 110 and some change. Scene rules clearly state the framerate must match the source as closely as possible. Ergo, NUKED.

video 9 nice and clear, very good quality video, but little dark at some points

audio 7 pretty good, but there was some weird screeching to the sound when it got loud, and a very slight hum

movie 9 pretty good movie. made you think and had good twists to it. was pretty interesting

I didn't expect did movie to be so good, i have had it for a while but watched this night.
It's a great release, and the movie is mind blowing!
