out of sync by 500 milliseconds, and colours need adjustment..
and audio is alil hollow, but furthermore good release

good success with UTi though, worth watching, except for that lil sync problem


7.5/6.2/?

6.2 for the audio? could you get a little more technical with your rating? lol anyways... picture is good for this release, sound is a little hollow, don't know about the movie. 8/6/X


Posted by AddNtoX on 03-21-2004 06:53 AM:

didnt notice any sync issues here....sample bit dark so i'll wait 10 mins til ive grabbed cd1 before i rate it....looks ok tho nice clr sound pic seems a lil grainy, i'll edit this up after watching cd1

edit::7/6/8 loved the movie i decided to watch it all, pic is a lil dark sound is a lil hollow but its all clr very watchable no need for any propers overall decent rls


Posted by Rep- on 03-21-2004 06:56 AM:

looks good to me. sound is a little hollow, and the pic is a little dark, but overall very decent! I really wanted to see this...

we figured out where the plug goes in
Congratulations! Does this mean that in nine months we'll have a bouncing baby DVD? Sample looks like the UTi of old, and the movie is supposed to be an instant classic. We'll see on both counts..... EDIT NOTES: Very disappointing rip. WAAAY too dark. Sample is misleadingly bright. The sound is fine, easy to understand, but I hope UTi figures out a way to get a brighter picture. I don't remember such a problem with their previous home-made cam's. Perhaps moving closer would help, even if it means some cropping. 5/7/?

Not bad at all UTi. Glad to see you back. Judging by the sample its alittle dark and just a tad hollow but no big deal at all. i didnt notice any sync problems. 7/7/?


Posted by adopted on 03-21-2004 08:37 AM:

a little blue and crushed black, no biggie
audios seems good enough

looks pretty watchable to me


Posted by mew on 03-21-2004 09:37 AM:

Decent overall, a tad dark and grainy and audio isnt the best, but watchable and not bad for a first release (of this movie, not UTi)


Posted by MorganNY on 03-21-2004 05:35 PM:

Sample didn't seem that dark. I watched this release. Movie didn't seem that dark. Audio wasn't the loudest but it was direct.
Was a bit grainy but not outside what you'd expect from a ts.
Perfectly watchable. Carrey was effective but i'd still rather see him in comedy.
8.5/8/7?


Posted by lozman on 03-21-2004 05:54 PM:

a bit dark & grainy but well watchable


Posted by K-FurY on 03-21-2004 08:32 PM:

pic didn't look too dark, atleast from the sample, decent colors, not too grainy either, sound is decent, not perfect TS sound, but will do, can't wait to watch this.

7/7/x


Posted by Chino XL on 03-21-2004 08:47 PM:

Glad to see UTi is still around.. I've always enjoyed they're releases and think they are one of the most respectable groups around.. Quality is good Sound is good.. movie looks good so good release =)


Posted by JKozzy on 03-21-2004 10:08 PM:

UTi, nice release. 8's all across the board
8/8/8

nice release uti...from CD1 this is a nice start to the telesync scene compared to your previous cams...which were nice cams..but your telesyncs are still good.. Has a very nice pic..a little dark at times...Widescreen and stop lying about the sound being hollow..the sound is direct and very nice, clear and loud...

8/8/10

Very dark in some parts, sound is pretty good almost throughout. 7/7/10


Posted by RockyLake on 03-22-2004 03:01 AM:

Ok i'm not taking anything away from this release because it's very nice and it's free...Some have stated that it's a lil hollow well i agree but a lil Hollow means it's not direct sound.It's a mislabeled cam plain and simple.If other groups that people like to bash put this out there would be many people bitching at them.Lets be fair.


Posted by SeeDee_MKII on 03-22-2004 03:03 AM:

Video 8 (Minimal cropping, Slighly dark, Overall good TS)
Sound 8.5 (Direct, no real problems)
Movie ? (Not watched all of it)


At last, UTi get a direct input. Video side seems to be improved as well, with no heads, minimal cropping, and a steady hand\tripod.

More please

The video is a bit dark and grainy and the sound is a bit weak but for a TS it is definately watchable. This movie is the best movie I've seen in a long, long time. I saw it in the theater on Friday and was wanting to see it again so I'm very happy with this release. 7/7/10


Posted by [-BiG_W-] on 03-22-2004 11:59 AM:

Watched this all the way through last night.

Pic - little dark in places, but then it's supposed to be like that. You can still see what's going on throughout the whole movie though so it's not that big a deal. Absolutely no angle though and no cropping either so its great from that respect

Audio - direct and very clear but a little tinny in places. No real problems.

Movie - OMG. Absolutely stunning. One of the best movies in the last 5 years.

7/8/10

Wow, thanx UTi. It's nice to atleast somebody is picking up the slack with our apparent lack of good SVCD TS lately. I mean still no Dawn of the Dead or Taking Lives good copies, just watchable Cams and your typical FTF. I've been waiting awhile to see this movie and although the Pic can be a bit dark and colors faded at times. It's a very watchable first rls. Also i found no sync issues when i burned and watched on my tv. Overall i thought the movie was very well done but definitely one for the drama fans out there... Now if some would just please rls some good quality PROPERS or even TS SVCDs.. TCR, VideoCD,Matine, I hope your listening Anyway again props to UTi for the first watchable SVCD TS this month of a new movie..


7/7.5/8

8/8/2

nice release, movie sucks


Posted by SHaKiNGBRaVe on 03-23-2004 07:44 PM:

video : 8
-tad dark, not really noticable, except in a couple scenes. otherwise excellent, no distracting flicker or motion blur and minimal cropping.

audio : 7
-understandable, but somewhat muffled/hollow. seems like they used directional or wireless mics instead of a direct ald patch? either way, audio is, imo, not direct but mic'd.

movie : 8
-good showing for jim carrey, he's been making great flicks lately


Posted by Red0ut on 03-23-2004 09:49 PM:

wow, yeah this is probably the best movie of 2004 so far. such a "nice" story, everything seems to flow so nice.

huh and for the release itself it was okay
video was like 7.6, audio was like 8.5 and i think the movie was good so i would say around 9.1 out of 10.


Posted by cfm on 03-24-2004 04:07 AM:

As everyone has said movie is dark but its definetly watchable. Grainy also
Sound is good
7/7/6

I'm beginning to like Jim as more than a comedian.


Posted by CATBOX on 03-26-2004 03:15 PM:

I watched the complete release last night, and here is my review:

Video-7.5 A bit dark, and a tad grainy, but overall very good. Good AR, no heads in the way, or shakey camera adjustments. And although it seems to be a trend lately, the beginning and ending are not cut off! I love a complete release.

Sound-7 I love the comment in the NFO about finding the plug, thats classic. Much better than the CAM audio we're used to from UTi. No sync problems at all. It is still missing something though. It sounds just slightly muffled, or not quite as full as it should be. Very understandable, with no static bursts, or glitches.

Movie- 6 I may get flamed for the low rating, but i really didn't enjoy watching this movie at all. Its more like you "experience" this movie rather than watch it. Its in no way a feel good movie, nor do you really care about what happens to the characters. You just kind of watch what happens in a very "Momento" style of storytelling. Great acting all around. It was way more vulgar than it needed to be, and had some really horrible effects like the oversized set when Jim Carrey was 4, and hiding under the table. It gets points for being creative/original, but as a whole, i didn't like it.

Great release by UTi. Please keep bringing us quality like this.

Movie- (7) Wasn't what i expected..but it was a very good film
none of the less...

Overall- (good) Would have been a Great TS if it was a lil brighter..
Great job UTi.. A keeper till dvd scr/retail..


7/9/7


Posted by eboskie1 on 03-28-2004 11:55 PM:

a little darkish green but all in all good quality. def watchable in my opinon, hope a proper comes out


Posted by [pr] on 03-29-2004 08:03 AM:

colors were kinda wacky (red was RED, everything else kinda blue/grey) dark in certain scenes and the audio was good for a TS. The movie... wow, way cool. We all got high and blew our minds tonight!


Posted by Hejkal11 on 03-29-2004 08:52 AM:

The picture is fine, a bit too dark though, but the sound...omg, no thank you...It was so boring too watch just because of the bad sound...well well, off I go, watching it in the cinema instead tonight XD

7/5/x


Posted by Vertrif on 04-14-2004 07:09 AM:

This release is not as good.. i would give it 6/6/1.. The movie SUCKED SOOO HARD... i can't believe people loved it... If you watch paycheck and then watch this movie, it's a CLONE!!! I can't believe nobody complained about it.. OMG... what's so great about the movie anyways? he doesn't want get his memory erased... okay, now lets look at paycheck, he's trying to remember the memory that was erased... PRETTY MUCH SIMILAR!!! Jim Carey sucked in this movie.. he's just a bum....
