I realize it is subjective,however
saying "a bit overcropped/does not hinder viewing " is a rather glaring understatement IMHO

a few more screens to illustrate my point
Crop1
Crop2
Crop3

V-8 (A Little Over Cropped For Me)
A-10
M-9.5

This movie is astouding, a race against the clock type framejob with the protagonist racing to clear his name.
Stellar work from a legend in his own time (Pacino)

Definitely worth watching, especially considering they don't even have a theater release date set.

MUST WATCH!

Don't take my word for it, go watch it.
PS - The watermark isn't all that bad, but I've been watching Cams and TS's for years now. Beautiful film, good plot, absolutely stellar. I don't even use that word usually, but I can't think of any other way to describe this one.


Posted by Red_Tides99 on 01-20-2007 12:12 PM:

The video is cropped to remove the hardcoded Portugese subtitles.

This movie had serious issues during post-production causing distribution problems which have led to the movies near 6 month delay. (Release date looks to be FEB)

Word is screeners were sent out "internationally" to appease the distributors that the movie is indeed done, and is worth watching, and that the delay of release didn't have anything to do with the quality of the feature.

Am watching now..

V - 7 for bad crop and watermark (9 without those problems)
A - 8
M - Not finished yet.

7/8/?

Cropped


Posted by Ekno on 01-20-2007 02:15 PM:

DVD Screener before it's even out on the theaters, that is not often you get that!

It is watchable. Props for getting it out so early.

V - 8 (bad crop, but u can still watch it and get the whole movie. 8 cuz it's out so early and the quality is good)
A - 8
M - 7

Maybe they cropped it like that due to security reasons. Don't think there are many of these out. It's not even in the theaters yet and it hasn't yet been rated on iMDB


Posted by TheWash on 01-20-2007 03:19 PM:

V - 5 majorly overcropped + massive "promo dvd" watermark
A - 7
M - ??? Don't think I could sit through this release. Will wait for better.

Read my post above and also note there is a copy of this movie out there UN-cropped, as long as you don't mind the subtitles.

Also IMO:
Movie Rating - 2

Sorry but if it wasn't for Al Pacino this would be a straight to DVD release, this movie "plot" has been done before, and with a much better story around it. Al Pacino running around being paranoid while having a bad case of "bed head" does not a better movie make.

Nice input on this release. Skimmed the movie. Good color, resolution, and sound. Watchable yes. Enjoyable not entirely because of the over cropping (as to why comments on this thread refer) and the ugly watermark. Will I watch yes unless something better comes along very soon. Excellent release time.

7/8/?

Have viewed. Taut thriller that can't be done much better. 9


Posted by surge on 01-20-2007 07:24 PM:

yes the video quality is sub par with the watermark and extreme cropping

i still watched it and i have to say i enjoyed this movie
it was exciting with a good ending, so i would say if you can get past all the crappy quality and pay attention it is worth a view

a-8
v-6 (huge watermark, cropping)
m-8.5

Great job on getting this release before a set release date. Decent job on the video & audio encode.

Too horrible for me to enjoy with the over cropping. Watermark on the top right corner is very tolerable.

V-6
A-8
M-(couldn't stand to watch it)

Cropping as mentioned on the previous posts was probably done for security & subtitle reasons. I would of preferred censor blocks rather than cropping, but that would of taken a bit long eh?


Posted by target on 01-21-2007 12:05 PM:

looks really cropped...
there is a repack out though...dunno what it is, but i will check out when its done and post again...

v: 7 for screener and cropped

I don't think so. Repack is not much better than this one here.

heheh. yeah it's still 4:3 screen cropped

i would've been better to leave the subs in, since there's already a big ass ugly "dvd demo" watermark.

It's annoying to see pacino's porsche disappear into the bottom of the screen.


Posted by deadmoon on 01-22-2007 10:40 PM:

The crop is destroying an otherwise good release

v - 6
a - 6
m - dunno
