Colours are a bit saturated, also has some flicker and dark patches.

But the audio, as always, is superb.

Nice rls again from VideoCD. Shame this movie looks to have ruined the story.

Who the fuck puts the main character as the second billing to be superseeded by a 'nothing' character played by a now fading kung fu star?

Crap.

8/9

typical quality

typical video cd release looks and sounds very good
8/8/8 from sample


Posted by vip3r on 06-19-2004 03:45 PM:

Hmmm..this movie was uhm...GREAT compared to 'The Medallion' - which was the last american (known) flick jackie did, and it sucked ass. I actually saw this one at the theater, so i won't be picking this release up. Normal VideoCD quality, although it is a little flickery..but it still can't get much better than this

8/8/6


Posted by mind on 06-19-2004 03:47 PM:

nice work from VideoCD again

judged from sample:

8/8/x

video is a little flickery from the sample. but its still far and away the best there is. audio cant be any less than a 10, i dont think its possible for a ts to have a better audio source than dts disks haha.

9/10

videocd perfect as usual

8/9/5

Reviewed after watching all of CD 1.
Finally a good non-internal rls.
Sound is excellent as always and the picture is very good
except for the darker scenes a cam just can't do well with
plus a little flicker now and then.

As for the movie itself it will be lucky to go around the theatres
in 8.0 days and disappear

Another fine VideoCD product.

VideoCD continues their incredible run -- if they keep this up thoughout the summer, they'd have to be considered the best ever, IMO. 8/10/?


Posted by deano21 on 06-19-2004 06:23 PM:

nice pic looks a very good movie aint seen it yet videoCD strikes again

pic 8
sound 8
movie?


Posted by dragontm on 06-19-2004 06:35 PM:

VideoCd i must say you are the kings
i would give the picture quality 8
sound 10
movie ? not sure havent watched it yet

im sure this will encode to dvd just great


Posted by scousethief on 06-19-2004 06:36 PM:

very good apart from the french subs

7/8/8

i posted 7 because of the subs no other reason


Posted by Roger on 06-19-2004 06:45 PM:

Can you tell me what the subs has to do with the video quality ?
If the sound would be french but surround 5.1, would you give it 0 ? for english subs, i guess 8$/2hrs is not too bad.


Posted by Pickles on 06-19-2004 06:50 PM:

Smile

Very nice telesync videocd is smoking as of late. audio is very nice, video is dark in places but overall good. as for the movie... eh didn't care for it. Keep um comin' VideoCD

8/7/5


Posted by scousethief on 06-19-2004 06:54 PM:

my post if u dont like it dont read it
if the subs were in english then the problem wouldnt be there and i know that wideocd have a french supplier seeing as the subs are encoded into the video then its a video problem for me not an audio but like i said if u dont like it tough thats my review

oh and the vid is too dark and does flicker but i didnt mention that because some one already has so my rating stands as far as im concerned

just because VideoCD released it doesn't always mean its from a french source..sure most of them recently have been but you can't just assume it is. Chronicles of Riddick was in english so you never know, unless you watched the release and if you did then i apologize for assuming that you did not.

from the sample
8/9/x (downloading full rls now) and will watch later
looks really good, not their greatest as of recently but still high quality.

EDIT:: i've watched all of cd1 and it looks really good, maybe a little dark but hardly noticeable. I also didn't notice any flicker that some people talk about, this is another great release from videocd and my rating is still the same

funny thing is the french subs showed up more in this film than during the whole of WW2 lol

hell its so easy too take the piss it just aint funny


Posted by drMabuse on 06-19-2004 07:56 PM:

what are we saying here people, this is English language but French subs all the way through? Hope not, thats been whats put Videcd at the top of the pile, nice copies, nice sound, no subs. People used to hate thai subs, whats so different here.

my gues sis at some point someone speaks chineese and they put subs in for the french audience like they will probably put english subs in when shown in uk and german subs in germany etc

Grow up.


Posted by BizKiTRoAcH on 06-19-2004 09:35 PM:

Just finished watching this release. Pretty good as usual.

8/8/8. shame about the french subs, but i understood half of them so its not too bad.. and it doesnt effect the storyline much so no big deal. Picture is a bit dark on some scenes. Apart from that, another killer release. Keep it up guys.

Just got through viewing and its very nice. Looks great on the t.v. and the sound is excellent clear, loud, and strong. The movie only had subs for a short while and didn't interfere with the film. So no loss. Overall this is a great movie and great release.

9/9/8

Posted by bcool2k on 06-20-2004 07:22 AM:

VideoCD continues to dominate in the category of SVCD TS.. Typical excellent pic and sound albeit a tad dark and some flickering.. But the sound is very Nice..As for the movie, Jackie Chan, stick with Rush Hour movies.. Not so good, one really decent fight scene.. Oh and i guess i spoke too soon about having english sources.. errr Subs in French.. Still the best rls..FIN Now some one plz bring on Dodgeball..hint hint!!!!


8/8.5/6

Very nice release. Picture is great and sound is even better, really clear. French subs isn't big thing as, like previously mentioned, they are on only for a little while. I think this is a rather decent movie.

8/9/7

Yet another cool release from Videocd. Must have said that a dozen times in the last week!

Nice pic, a touch flickery I thought in places, but still very good. Audio spot on. Film......meh.

As i said, very good. very fast. nice job. keep em rollin !!

8/ 9/ 7

Ohh btw... stop bitchin & get on with it...


Posted by Mr_Grinch on 06-20-2004 04:21 PM:

Pic was good but not as good as some of their recent releases. Some of the darker fast moving fights were difficult to follow.

The subs were most annoying, it's easy enough to understand the day and what country they're in (Thank you my never used French GCSE) but I was completely stuck when Jackie was chatting to his family and several other times during the film.

In France, when the art dealer is arguing with her about the painting, it seems like that section should be subtitled also.

Anyway, other than those minor gripes it was a nice release and not a bad film. Good wholesome family fun. Definitely catch it in the cinema (On an 'Orange Wednesday' of course)


Posted by bryehn on 06-21-2004 02:56 AM:

subs are in french, and french parts aren't subbed, because these releases come from quebec (for now) where people speak french AND english...


anyways...

8/8/5

Posted by Zorcerer on 06-21-2004 03:22 AM:

Just watched the whole thing and heres the verdict:

Pictures is sharp, colors are a little washed out and the screen is set a little dark. But the odd thing is this ligt part of the screen left and a little above center, wich stays light during the movie, some kind of reflection? Anywayz, the sound is perfect , clear and sounds very good on a surround setup. The one bad thing is that when the crew is in france there is no english subs, and when they talk chinese its subbed in french. But no biggie since youll figure things out yourself.

9/10/7 - Movie was perfectly OK, but a little long....

VideoCD are really on a roll as of late, cheers guys! Video quality was very good, only the dark scenes looked at all bad. The daytime scenes were almost comparable with a DVD-Screener/Rip.

Audio quality was amazing, couldn't be better, sounded great on my sub woofers.

Not a bad film either. Had its moments. Thanks again!


Posted by concius on 06-22-2004 10:05 AM:

videocd back at it again with another nice release. the video wasnt the greatest, but audio is supurb.
video - 7
audio - 9
movie - 6

nice work videocd, keep up the great work.


Posted by Snowimagination on 06-22-2004 07:24 PM:

Sound is great as usual, but the video contrast is flat, not the usual standard that Video CD uses. OK quality, but they could do better if they wanted to


Posted by pabelo on 06-22-2004 09:29 PM:

.

Im lovin it ....

8/9/7


Posted by aWe on 06-23-2004 12:51 AM:

The picture quality was alright in this one. Nothing to jump up and down about but alright. The audio was decent enough aswell. However the movie was pretty bad. Not much else to say about this one. Thanks again VideoCD, You Guys ROCK!! Keep Em Coming!

Good video and audio but I personally thought the movie was terrible, so many parts had nothing to do with the book. But then again thats Hollywood's "artistic licence"

Keep up the good work VideoCD
