-- Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London *SVCD* - TELESYNC - TCR (http://forum.vcdq.com/showthread.php?threadid=37242)

Excellent rls. Great pic, a lil overly colourful tho. Great sound with next to zero hiss.

Good stuff. Dunno about the movie though, the first one was ok i thought. This, on the other hand, looks gay.

10/9

-edit: scanned through the whole of CD1 now and i gotta re-rate this. The pic is grainy as hell later on, not largely detectable in the sample as such. The spoken audio is really quiet too.

Not as great as i thought from the sample.

Re-rated: 7/6

great release!!!
nice pic and quality sound!!!
The movie is kinda boring but this release would hold me till the retail....
For TS 9/9/6

Another great quality TS by TCR.

Video: 9

Audio: 9

Movie: Could care less.

Im gonna go with DyNAMO's release on this one. Why ?

DyNAMO's VCD was released Hours before TCR pred. Both Look like they we're from the exact same source. Same colors etc. TCR looks more stretched / fullscreen then DyNAMO's. As Far a workprints / screeners / TS's - i watch then del - VCD for me.

If you already picked up DyNAMO's ... ya dont need this copy as its almost the exact same thing.

7/8/?

From Sample

Larger picture than dynamo's, slight better picture too, but also seems slight pixelation.

Video - 7.5
Audio - 7.5

overall quite a good release.

this is definitely from the same source..I thought I was seeing things. they just stretched the pic and tried some clarity adjustments. But its the same from the moment it comes on to the end. I got both. And they are near identical, if not for the touch ups..this isn't much better. Either way if you have Dynamo you don't need this. If you have TCR no need for the other. But they both get the same rating...

Nice release

7/9/7

Video very good, very watchable and TRUE SVCD (as encode method). Not perfect but plenty good.

Audio sounded great, very nice direct audio.

Movie, as NFO states hope it's his last, lol so true. Not bad it will keep you watching and I think they had Anthony Anderson in it so people would actually pay to watch it. Enough of these child actors, James Bond deserve these type of tital's and Austin powers of course.

If you got so time and want to decent enough movie this is good. Which ever release you can get hold of is good, herd there about the same.

video is not too good - lots of snow in the picture (grainy) - 6

Audio is nice - 7

Movie itself is not half as good as the first part. maybe it's because I prefer Hilary Duff to that s club 7 girl that plays in this movie. She looks nice, admitted, but she's got less charm than Hilary.

Besides, imho Americans-going-to-Great-Britain-to-ridicule-the-British and villains-using-mindcontrolling-technology storylines have been used and abused to absolute death, this shit ain't funny any more, we've seen it so often, it's just boring.

The special appeal of the first Cody Banks movie was its UN-Bond-likeness, i.e., Cody was everything that James Bond is not. And that was funny. While in the sequel Cody is rather self-confident, so what we get here is just another James Bond in a slapstick comedy. And I hate slapstick. It's so artificial! Why does actually Hollywood make all black people look like idiots in its movies? It's so phucking discriminating! We are living in the 21st century, for god's sake, when will Hollywood finally recognise that?

And all those stupid cliches about the British! They don't behave that way! And why do all Americans end up at some lord's house or in the buckingham palace in Hollywood's movies? Why don't they go to Whitechapel or some other dirty place in London? Yeah, I know, it's dirty there, but it would be more realistic.

So my rating for the movie itself is 3

6/7/3

My kid was happy with this rls, so that means i am happy too. the video is bright as everyone has stated and a bit blurry at times, but overall very decent. the movie was not quite as good as the first installment, but what the hell its a kids movie. My son gives it

8/8/8

Ok now here is a movie that i thought would never have a sequel, but alas we have. Destination London. Anyway the Pic was a bit brigher and marginally clearer to me on tv (Wider Pic). Sound is very Direct. However the movie is garbage and no Hillary Duff Anthony Anderson has some funny moments but def a waste of my time and his talent. Avoid this movie.. but if u must TCR has done it best

7.5/8/6

Im ashamed to say i grabbed this! It was for a friend tho so i think ive redeemed myself a little!

Not bad as far as TS' go, flicked thru the whole movie and on the whole it seems like a watchable copy!

7/7/?
