From Sample:

V-8 Nice TS A little dark, a little flickery, looks a tad cropped at the top
A-6 Audio sounds nice but it also sounds low
M-10

This is something you should actually see in the theaters.. just that great of a movie to see on the big screen.

[NUKE] [ movie.missing.45s.as.stated.in.nfo ]

A movie like this probably can't be done justice with a TS because the visuals are what makes the movie so interesting. I'll wait for the R5, which will hopefully have original English audio and not line audio synched with the video.

59:52

+ 51


with over 3min of credits at the end of this release....


it doesnt add up to imdb?


fuzzy math? like wild hog?

I call shens...

this nuke is so retarded of course if you look at IMDB and TS length it's not going to be the same.

In theater movies are projected at 24fps (Image per second) and when a TS is made it's using a PAL cammera which is running at 25fps, this is also why when watching TS you will see scan lines, because movie is not projected at the same speed.

This being said, do the math, 24fps vs 25fps means an increase of 4% in frame rate, if you check IMDB movie is 117min long so 117min long at 24fps is actually 112min at 25fps (117-4%) and 117-112 is 4 minutes, so 4 minutes are not mssing it's just because of frame rate, then there's obviously the mpaa dots removal they mention but nuking rls because of that is stupid.

Anyway

Video:9 abit dark but heh its adark movie
Audio:clear
Movie:8 maybe was expecting too much out of it

Video is just a tad dark, but very very clean. Audio is direct and nice, if you think it's low...turn it up. For a TS, this is very nice as 20th really is the cream of the crop for some time now. Thanks guys, you rock.

V-7.5
A-7.5
M-8

As horton says, doesnt add up with the missing minutes. Slight sync issue, and video is a bit dark, but overall this is a good early ts, 20th coming out with some good releases.

A 5 (sync issue and hollow)
V 5
M will wait for TC/R5

Rated as a TS

V: 7.5 (dark, otherwise it'd perfect)
A: 7
M: ?

20th best group out there

Will wait for a DVDSCR/R5 release though

20th this looks great, looks like it isnt overcropped as can be seen by opening creds, if we are to believe their nfo saying that they were eliminating dots and that there is only 45 seconds missing, then this is the release to get. seems like they have a decent american source, something that brings us back a few years.

20th seems to be releasing some quality stuff. I think the picture is nice on these because maybe an HDV cam on a DLP screen? Just a thought because they are pretty clear. The flicker in the back of their releases gets kind of annoying but it"s not a big deal. I saw this in theatres and it seems like the color depth isn't as sharp as it should be, but not all maVen / Centropy TS's had a perfect image.

The video is nice but the audio is lacking something. It seems like they hook a mic and set it at their feet and call that direct audio? With drive ins opening up all over hopefully this will change. Also, why do they cut scenes out with the mpaa dots? I would think it would be easier to just drop the few frames every now in then they show up at. I guess i'm being picky but who cares this is where to voice your opinion on the release.

It's nice seeing a group release nice things without an ego about it. They know they do quality work it doesn't seem like they want people to bow at their feet which is how it should be.

V-7.5
A-6
M-8

Very watchable which, without overly exaggerating, makes it a hundred times better than the other 2 releases out. Something wrong with the audio though. Sounds like good cam quality rather then a TS.


8/5.5/? Will definitely try to watch tonight.


Smidge stylized but does not detract from what is an awesome movie. 9

Good video, decent audio. Good release. Pity about the missing footage and the jumps.

V:7
A:6
M:?

from sample and rars:

V:8 (only to dark )
A:7 (hope you get better sources for youre telesyncs )
M:- (not yet seen )


20th has great releases, hope they get better audio.
and hope the dark wil be gone...
also there are 3:17 of end credits

20th get better and better. this release is almost perfect right on screen.

for 20th, first 12 seconds can be deleted

for the person that cames in the cinema about: 00:01:09, get on time!

Video - 7 (Good video a bit dark and flicker and missing to much minutes i don't believe its because of dots cause those are only on a couple of frames. Movie is under 120 minutes so it should fit one tape.)

Audio - 6

Movie - 10 (Amazing movie!)

The video quality on this one is way better then the others. That being said its still dark in spots. But that can be expected from a movie such as this.

The audio quality isnt as good as the video quality. The audio is very low. I turned my volume all the way up and was just able to hear it. But the audio is very clear.

Video - 7
Audio - 6
Movie - 10 (its best that you see it in theaters first)

As a TS:
V=8....A tad dark...watchable
A=7
M=10...Great movie
Nice job 20th

Sound?

is it just me or is the sound nearly unlistenable, it is all grabled and distorted sounding.

I cannot see how anyone could give this audio more than a 4.

Someone let me know if they are getting garbled washed out sounding audio or if it is just me as the reviews so far definately dont reflec this.

Video is very good however.

Re: Re: Sound?

video: 8 it is somewhat dark but it is better than anything you will see for a while
audio: 5 sounds garbled (only based on sample)
movie: Didn't see this yet, but will definitely see it at cinema

v = 8
a = 7
m = x

a great early release, there are a few scene jumps but nothing that will ruin the movie. some slight flickering in the bright scenes but over all a excellent release..

top job 20th..
