vcd contains errors, WMP doesn't jump forward/backward, returning errors. had to convert to mpeg2, de-multiplex the whole thing and then re-multiplex it properly. In fact, it was so broken, TMPGEnc wasn't even able to de-multiplex it properly, had to use Mpgtx. The groups will never learn  They think testing in Windvd is enough.
And about the maven logo video at the beginning of the movie: it's the stupidest and most infantile thing I've ever witnessed. The whole release should be nuked for this shit.
Video - 8. It's pretty good, not grainy at all.
Audio - 8. A little low volume, but apart from that it's ok, not hollow
Movie itself - 6. The first 3/4 of the movie is incredibly boring, only in the end it starts to get interesting. I esp. liked the very ending (what happens right before the credits). I won't say what happens, see for yourself if you haven't yet.
All the actors apart from Henrikson suck big time. And the scenery is cheap, they must have shot the whole movie in some abandoned factory complex or something.
The computer effects are ok, but nothing special (the special effects are not so special lol  ).
This is not a movie to be watched at the cinema, it's something for the video stores, to rent when you are bored. It's just too trashy. But then again, I'd say it's better than the Alien:Resurrection bullshit movie which sucked sucked sucked.
8/8/6
P.S. how comes the words on screen are always in french in Maven releases? So weird. All characters speak english, but everything that is written on screen is in french

from France/Canada and the audio comes from somewhere else, and with a few touchups and some work, they get it sync'd, and a good rel
