I too thougth it was a piece of shit when I watched it, but after watching it you realise it's actually really good when thinking back. Like some weird subliminal
V:8 - Tiny bit blury in spots
A:8 - Audio is heavily compressed in the first 5 minutes or so (during intro sequence especially - and a bit through the chase sequence
M:8 - Really good Bond film. Much different to previous outings. Bond is harder (tough mofo) but gets his arse kicked around alot too (more realistic). Comedy is basically non-existant, which makes for a darker and more serious film. Tad long towards the end, and maybe needed a few more flashy ladies and perhaps some cooler gadgets...
Overall, a great realease from Pukka and the Ruskis!!! Well worth the download - even the two disks. I think Pukka is basically doing the best releases at the mo.
This is the best TS I've seen in a long, long time. Could pass for a average TC.
Video is sharp, colors are good (a little faded) and the sound is very good (no hissing, etc, only a few spots where it drops in sound level for 30 seconds).
Movie... sad day for the Bond series. This guy looks more like a bad guy/boxer than a bond. Movie dialog wasn't clever or witty and the story is average.
V=8, just a little angle.. Nice colors.
A=7, just a few times I noticed a switch in audio quality
M=8, what it misses in action, it makes up for in suspense
Bottomline: Perfect release so soon, for this solid Thriller!!
The video isn't bad, nor is the audio, just not what I'd consider great either. But more than watchable. Saw this in the theater, fantastic movie, vastly superior to the last 3 Bond flicks and an all around excellent movie. (And a very good adaptation of the book, they did a great job w/ the ending, comparatively speaking.)
Only downer? Where the hell were the naked Bond girls in the intro, dammit.
This is probably as good as it gets for a next day release. All the way through the final credits. Must have been done in an empty theatre. Sound fluctuates - loud music and sound effects, low speaking. Maybe surround sound and sitting by the back speakers <g>. Non-stop action for most of the movie. Not much of a plot otherwise. Interesting update of the Fleming novel. Poker instead of baccarat, Prague instead of Monte Carlo, elipse instead of whatever Russian spy group (spectre?)
8/7/8
This was a really good Bond film, you guys have to remember that its the 1st Bond movie and is showing how he becomes our loved James Bond, so he's going to be rough around the edges
it showed how he finally started wearing tailored suits, refining his lady killer tactics, why he uses his real name etc
and its the first bond so he wont have all the neat gadgets yet
thats why the very last scene is so important with the "bond, james bond" and the shot of him
what pisses me off is that old lady as M, she shouldnt be in there if its the first bond film -_- but then i guess a lot of other things shouldnt be int here :/
V-8 (a good telesync, not great but good)
A-6 (not good at all, dialogue is hard to understand sometimes and the action scenes are filtered too heavily)
M-10 (watched in theaters today and loved every minute of it!!!)
