Blu-Ray release///
Ok I own all 3 versions of this movie now since it was first released in 2004 on DVD. I have to say I'm disappointed with this movie as a Blu-Ray release. The 2004 release is a pile of crap. The 2007 DVD version was MUCH better as far as sound and picture quality. The downside was that the dialog was censored. To me it wasn't a huge deal except for one key part which I think most fans know as it's one of those memorable scenes that just stand out. So I was bummed this particular scene was censored. So 5 years later and I've got the blu ray player and the big flatscreen HD tv... and a blu ray comes out that is both good quality and uncensored! Naturally I had to pick it up.Ok the blu ray is the exact same quality as the DVD except that it's uncensored. The picture is incredibly grainy. It feels like I'm watching an old VHS movie. Now I know this is because I'm watching it on an HD TV... the DVD from 2007 needed to be cleaned up but it didn't look this noticable but then, I wasn't watching it on an HD TV either. As an actual Blu Ray release, this is terrible. The only reason I would buy this is if I didn't already own the DVD from 2007 or if that one censored scene meant that much to you that you just HAVE to have it in there. So if you already own this movie and think a blue ray release would look spectacular, don't waste your money. If you don't own it, pick it up... you might as well as it comes with both the DVD and the Blu ray so... and it is the best release of this to date. But this was not cleaned up for HD viewing at all. I'm thinking this is gonna be the best it's gonna get for a good while till someone who knows how great this movie actually is and decides to give this a proper clean up.
