Question: What is the name of the movie where the actor has a rude heart?

Tinker Bell, a fictional character that was developed back in 1904 by J.M. Barrie and later on in 1911 in the novel "Peter and Wendy" is best known for her appearance in the 1953 Walt Disney film "Peter Pan". The character is quite iconic for Disney, as she is quite literally the unofficial mascot for the Walt Disney Company and can be seen in many of their commercials and in 2008, the character received her first animated film which was direct-to-DVD and Blu-ray.After the success of the first "Tinker Bell" film in 2008, the whole gang returns for the second film titled "Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure" in 2009 and now in 2010, Tinker Bell returns with "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" available on Blu-ray+DVD and DVD.VIDEO:"Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" is presented in 1080p High Definition (1:78:1). If you thought the animation was an improvement with the 2009 release of "Tinker Bell", the third film has improved much more. It's so amazing to me, because the people behind the "Tinker Bell" films only have so much time to work on them and to see how much the animation has improved between "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" from last year's "Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure".There is much more detail on the actual characters.  Movements, scenery, water and overall detail has improved as well.  And where the last film focused more on Tinker Bell and Terence within trees and dark set areas, "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" is much different as they are outdoors and we see how the weather changes from sunny, to rain storm and then to night, so we get to see separate environments from within the cottage to the outdoors.Every character is vibrant with colors, sharp and everything is quite detailed including the skin of the characters. You actually see Tinker Bell's cheeks having some color and also the skin pigments of other characters as well. It's much more defined it seems compared to last year's characters.  May it be more focus on the skin maps and textures or technology upgrades, everything about this latest Tinker Bell film looks much better than its last two predecessors.And I can continue to list so many positives from the plants, the clothing, the accessories and the beautiful backgrounds, the lush green grass, the water effects, the trees and even the animals are well detailed with their hair effects. Also, the special effects via CG from the lighting effects utilizing the pixie dust and then my favorite, the animated facial expressions, is just definitely great to look at. Although not a big budget theatrical film, "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" looks absolutely beautiful.Granted, it's important to note that this is a direct-to-video film and that the animators have a short time making these films compared to the bigger budget Pixar releases.  So, by no means do I want to say that "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" is going to meet the same animation quality of larger budget animated film such as "Toy Story 3' or "Up" but having seen how this film series develop and knowing the animators have only so much time, I give them credit for what they are able to accomplish within a year's time.  For a direct-to-video film, "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" looks great!  So, for the most part, this High Definition transfer of the film is absolutely pristine and gorgeous to look at. Another solid Walt Disney release on Blu-ray!As for the accompanying DVD, the film is presented in Widescreen (1:78:1) - Enhanced or 169 Televisions.AUDIO:As for the audio, the audio is presented in English 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio (48 kHz/24-bit), French and Spanish 5.1 Dolby Digital and all sound effects come alive. Dialogue is clear and understandable through the front and center channel, as is the beautiful orchestral music. Good use of the surround channels as the flow of sounds from the action sequences can be heard all around. From the ambiance of the workers at Fair Camp to the thumps and crashes of pans during a scene in the kitchen or in Lizzy's bedroom.  Also, good use of surrounds during the storms and you can hear the rain pattering as well as hearing the cars from the distance as they get closer to the fairies. Overall, a well-done lossless soundtrack.As for subtitles, the film is presented in English SDH, French and Spanish.The DVD, the film comes with a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound soundtrack with English SDH, French and Spanish language tracks.SPECIAL FEATURES"Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue " comes with the following special features presented in 1080p and 480i, English and French Dolby Digital and subtitles that are in English SDH, French and Spanish:* Tangled - Exclusive Sneak Peak- (3:39) A special early look at Walt Disney's upcoming animated film "Tangled".  Featuring Zachary Levi, Mandy Moore and directors Nathan Greno and Byron Howard talking about the film and featuring conceptual art.* Deleted Scenes - (14:44) - Featuring five deleted scenes with intros by Director Brad Raymond and Producer Helen Kalafatic. Both Brad and Helen set up the scenes via storyboards that were originally planned for the film and reasoning why the scene was cut.* Music & More - (3:03) Featuring the music video "How to Believe" by Bridgit Mendler.* Games & Activities - (3:23) Featuring a "Fairy Field Guide Builder" multiple choice style of game.* Backstage Disney - (1:52) Featuring "Design A Fairy House".  Director Brad Raymond shows us the Epcot Flower and Garden festival and interviews with children building a fairy house and also a the contest winner of the [...] design contest.Note: The accompanying DVD has the same special features as the Blu-ray.EXTRAS:"Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" comes with a slip cover case and a DVD of the feature film with the same bonuses that is on the Blu-ray is also included.JUDGMENT CALL:"Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" was another enjoyable film featuring the popular and iconic Disney character.Where the last film was more about the adventure and teamwork (and possible romantic interest) between Tinker Bell and Terrence, the third film is more heartfelt as we see Tinker Bell and the fairy-believing Lizzy bonding, and you have a sense that Lizzy is alone in the cottage.  No friends and her father is literally busy with his research and has no time for her.  So, she is attached to Tinker Bell and for her to believe that fairies are real, is simply a wonderful time for her but also knowing that Tinker Bell can't stay with her.So, you have that emotional component to this film but then you have Vidia and friends (who we have seen in the previous films) who participate in the more adventure-parts of the film.  We see how these fairies need to rescue Tinker Bell (as they fear humans) and because of the rain storm and their wings are wet, they can't fly or use their fairy magic.  So, they have to depend on using what they have and trying to make a boat and get from the summer camp to the cottage where they think Tinker Bell is being held in a cage against her will.I really enjoyed this third film and it's a great family film and in my opinion, it's the best Tinker Bell film of the three films thus far.  An improvement in storyline, more characters (and utilization of characters) and also a major improvement of characters and various scenery in different weather conditions and thus various, colorful scenes."Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" will attract younger and older audiences with its friendly screenplay and beautiful animation and music. The majority of all fairy characters (primarily Tinker Bell's friends) are back and overall, it was a very enjoyable film. The Blu-ray definitely continues Disney's commitment for the best quality for their High Definition releases (again, picture and audio quality are both magnificent) and there's really nothing to be disappointed with this release at all. Also, included is a DVD for the kids or for long commutes as well.Parents who are wondering if this film is scary at all, there really are no scary parts.  You have your usual cat who looks mean and wants to eat Tinker Bell and friends but really, there is nothing scary about this film at all.  And most importantly, you do not need to watch the previous two films to enjoy the third.  Although, it will help in knowing the relationship that Tinker Bell has with characters like Vidia or Terrence or what is fairy dust by watching the previous two films, but they are not really essential to enjoying the third film.Overall, if you are a looking for a Disney animated release for your children (especially those who love fairies) and for the whole family, "Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue" is highly recommended!

Question: How is the cast?

Let me go out on a limb here and just say 'Star Trek Into Darkness' is just as good as the 2009 reboot, and dare I say; a tad better! You need not be a lifelong fan to enjoy this spectacular roller coaster ride of a movie but if you are, you will enjoy it... O-SO-MUCH-BETTER! The inferences & nods to past TV episodes & the early movies of the 80's are in of themselves so richly rewarding. You will find yourself unable to control your smiling as you discover the creativeness of the writing, as the originality of the story keeps that 'alternate reality' concept going. This film is one of the most enjoyable films to come out in a long, long time. It is thoroughly entertaining. The audience I saw it with stood up and clapped. When was the last time you experienced that in a movie theater? As previously stated 'STID' propels you on a non stop roller coaster ride but also has a great deal of heart as well. The friendship dynamic between Spock & Kirk is further developed in a really great, dramatic way. Some reviewers poo-pooed the character traits of all the beloved crew as being tired & predictable. However, as a Star Trek fan, isn't that what we've come to expect? In fact a true fan would be truly disappointed if Scotty & McCoy did not behave accordingly. A major surprise awaits and is done in such a subtle unexpected manner that you never see it coming. That's all I'll say on that or I'll have to be indited for being a huge spoiler. There are a ton of special F/X but they are done well and are not over bearing, in fact they add & give the movie it's richness. I met Gene Roddenberry when I was in college and was in awe of the man. I know in my heart that he would be very proud of this handling of his brain-child. Kudos to J.J. Abrams, Kurtzman & Orci for the respect and dignity they continue to give this much loved story & the characters who inhabit the world of Star Trek. Chris Pine & Zachary Quinto shine. Benedict Cumberbatch is truly one of the best villains to come along in years. His malevolence & charm are a wonder to behold.  If you breathe, have a heart, enjoy fantastic movie making at it's best, this is the movie for you & the whole family. This definitely is a return visit movie & then maybe even another return after that. Can't wait for the DVD.

This definitely is a return visit movie & then maybe even another return after that. Can't wait for the DVD.

Let me go out on a limb here and just say 'Star Trek Into Darkness' is just as good as <hl> the 2009 reboot <hl> , and dare I say; a tad better!


Question: What criticism deserves the movie Passion of Christ by Mel Gibson?

Revenge of the Sith is for children and for adults with the minds of children.  To a grownup, this movie is moronic and boring.The only good part of the movie is the very end when we see the birth of Princess Leia and her twin brother Luke Skywalker, and they are placed in foster homes because their mom is dead and their dad is the enemy.  The babies are cute, and you really can't lose by showing newborn babies.Aside from that, this movie is horrible.  The fight scenes are worse than kung fu flicks with idiots hopping around like bunnies.  The acting, particularly that of Anakin Skywalker, is really juvenile and pathetic.  The writing is worst of all.  The writing really deserves to be punished.  The screenwriter deserves a good whipping for this garbage.Anakin and Obiwan Kenobi are in another stupid fight, when suddenly Obiwan lands on higher ground and tells Anakin to give it up because it is hopeless since he is on higher ground.  Hahahaha.  What idiot thought of that?  They just needed an excuse to have Obiwan win the fight, so they made up that nonsense.  Does the public really buy that?  How many times in this same movie do people jump around from lower to higher ground and vice versa?  Oh my god is this a STUPID film.I knew it was going to be utterly stupid very early on, when the two jedi were about to enter an air battle in their planes, and one of them put a smile on his face and said This is where the fun starts.  In other words, as we well know, there is absolutely no doubt who will win, because at this stage of the movie the good guys win, and there isn't even any tension in a battle, it's just a ballgame.  Remove all realism from the script, why don't you.Another utterly stupid bit of writing, considering that this silly flick is targeted for children, is to have the only female in the cast die in childbirth.  Great.  Take your young daughters to see it.  They will have this to identify with and remember the rest of their lives.  When your target audience is young children, as the target is for this film because anyone who is not a baby will see how moronic it is, why do you want to scare the Bejesus out of the little girls in the theatre regarding having children of their own?It's a shame that instead of being punished for this garbage, the people responsible for this movie actually got paid for it.

Question: How is the show?

Firefly has the same problem that all of Whedon's shows have. It is unfocused and meanders for far too long. You can throw away about eight episodes a season because he does not know where he wants to go with them. He spends too much time fumbling around in the dark looking for a purpose or a plotline to follow and that is what happened with Firefly. The only difference is that he spends more time world building in this one instead of creating a purpose for the season.After seeing all of the episodes, well it does not live up to the hype. The characters are generic Whedon archetypes. It spends too much time with its being cutesy poo dialog, which is not witty or clever. It spends way too much time explaining insignificant details of the universe that will never pay off. I would probably have enjoyed the show, but the diehard Firefly fans ruined any enjoyment I might get out of it. They built this show up to be one of the greatest shows ever made, proclaimed every episode is golden and chided a network for acting like a business.And nd no, I'm not some lone warrior looking to start a fight. I'm just speaking to the truth that a lot of you are in denial about. Firefly failed not because of some correct order nonsense. If the producer had an idea where he was going, the show would have lasted longer. The general science fiction fanbase saw a badly made show that was confusing to follow. They saw a show whose producer did not have the decency to give them a reason to tune in the following week.Before you spout your correct order nonsense, the science fiction audience had an opportunity to see it in the correct order when SciFi aired for the 13 weeks leading up to the Serenity movie premiere. They did not watch it then, nor did they watch when it was on 13 hour marathons. It was the lowest rated show on SciFi. Ridicule it all you want, but this was from back in the day when SciFi still showed quality science fiction, like Galactica and Farscape. If it did poorly back then, what should that tell you about the show.I am sorry if you Whedonites do not like hearing this, but that is reality. If the show was good, then it did not matter the order it was aired. If the show was good, it would be in its 8th or 9th season. If the show was good, it would not need your wishful thinking and vitriolic responses to keep it alive. If the show was good, it would have expanded beyond the Whedonite audience. Sorry, but the show was not good and you are doing a disservice by hyping the hell out of it.

Question: What have you seen with this screen time?

I am a die hard fan of the Indiana Jones series, so when Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was announced, I was very excited to see it. In anticipation, I watched several documentaries on crystal skulls so I would have the background on the subject matter before the film hit theaters. Knowing that many theories of crystal skulls are that they were not made by human hands, or possibly aliens, I was prepared for what many thought was a dissapointing end to the fourth Indy film. The action in this film was very much the same calibur as the previous 3 films. I agree that this film wasn't as good as Raiders or Last Crusade, but I did find it better than Temple of Doom.

Answer: the film hit theaters

Question: How good was the music?

Princesses Elsa and Anna are sisters and best friends until Elsa's power over ice and snow gets away from her and she hurts Anna. Elsa completely pulls away, locking herself away from the world and working to control her powers by suppressing her emotions. Their parents downsize the staff and close the gates to Arendelle to reduce the danger Elsa poses to others. Anna feels abandoned and both girls feel utterly alone. Years later, their parents die in a boating accident, making Elsa the queen of Arendelle. She is forced to open the gates and hold a coronation celebration. The coronation goes well, but her powers are revealed after a heated argument with Anna. She runs away, leaving a wake of ice and snow, making the much needed summer into winter in Arendelle. Anna feels it's her responsibility to make amends with Elsa and convince her to life the supernatural winter.Frozen is a fun film with charming characters and an unexpected ending. Anna and Elsa are both sympathetic characters who feel alienated and alone. I just want to give Elsa a great big hug. She tries her best to contain her powers and her feelings, sacrificing her close relationship with her sister in order to shield her from harm. She is forced to hide a fundamental part of herself in order to appear normal and utterly fails, causing harm to her entire community. I"m glad she wasn't a real villain as in the original story (which is very weird and religious), but a person trying her best and making mistakes. Anna is funny, quirky, and definitely not the poised and graceful Disney princess one might expect. She's very clumsy and embarrassingly blurts out her feelings to random people. She just wants a real relationship with her sister, to be able to make friends, and to have people around instead of cutting themselves off. My favorite character is Olaf, the living snowman who loves warm hugs. He provides perfect comic relief and he's just adorable.Disney films are rather guilty of having two people fall in love rather quickly based on next to nothing and then living happily ever after. It seems as if this film goes in that direction when Anna falls for Prince Hans of the Southern Isles and accepts a proposal within an evening of meeting. When Anna is once again injured by Elsa's magic, her condition is said to be cured by an act of true love, suggesting Hans should save the day. The ending switches things around and Anna is cured because she threw herself in front of Elsa as Hans tried to kill her. The true love in this instance wasn't romantic love, but sisterly love. I really enjoyed this subverting of typical Disney tropes and the story is the best Disney has produced in a while.The music of the film is delightful and another reason for the film's success. The filmmakers opted to hire Broadway composers to create these fun songs of varied styles. Do You Want to Build a Snowman is a cute, but sad song that encompasses Anna and Elsa's relationship after the accident and each of their loneliness and frustration. For the First Time in Forever is a cute song that shows Anna silly and quirky nature and her excitement for human contact and a dash of Elsa's mantra to control her powers. Love is an Open Door is an adorable instalove song between Anna and Hans with more of a rock feel and fun harmonies. In Summer is Olaf's hilarious song about his obsession with summer, but he has no idea what snow does in heat. The song has a nice old Hollywood musical flair and some unexpected lyrics. The best song of the film is Let It Go, Elsa's song of empowerment where she accepts herself despite what others think of her. Idina Menzel belts out the song and gives it the power it needs. The visuals are also amazing as Elsa effortlessly builds an ice castle around herself.The only part of the film I didn't really like was the trolls. They were cute and provided some comedy, but didn't really add much to the story. They could have easily been cut out without anything essential being removed. Other than that, Frozen has my vote for best animated film of 2013.

Question: Why do I have a great concept?

As a SciFi fan who can spot a "fake" a mile away, Prometheus left me somewhat disappointed.  Although the premise was good and the movie started off fairly strong, the characters turned out to be quite shallow and the second half of the movie was cheesy.In my opinion, this was NOT worth the money I paid to watch it on my Roku.

Question: Where can I see the truth of this movie?

"Enemy at the Gates" was quite interesting. It was about the Germans attacking and trying to take over the Russian City of Stalingrad during World War II (WWII). I had no idea the German army had gotten that far into Russia before. But then again I didn't immerse myself in studying WW II either. I'm not sure just how much of the story line was based on fact but if most of it was true then I am totally amazed.The opening scenes were brutal and reminded me of the first half-hour of "Saving Private Ryan". They showed the Russians coming off a train. Every other soldier in line was handed a rifle; the next person in line was handed the ammunition. They were told if the person in front of you gets killed, grab the rifle and go on yourself. As they crossed the river to attack the enemy and defend their homeland they were virtually massacred. If the Germans didn't kill them, their own officers were shooting them calling them cowards. One man, Vassily Zaitzev portrayed by Jude Law, came to the aid of another, Joseph Fiennes character Danilov. The way Vassily fired his weapon was certainly what made the story. He soon became a member of a sniper crew.Thanks to Danilov his name and face was in the papers. His superiors made a big thing out of him. The country needed a hero and he was to be it. It wasn't long before the Germans sent in their top sniper, Major Konig played by Ed Harris, to try to locate this now famous Russian. The movie then went back and forth between the two men and what they were doing.The film was suspenseful. It had action, combat scenes, intrigue, heroes, villains, and a little romance. The ending left me bewildered but I'm not going to ruin it for you. This film was well worth watching.

One man, Vassily Zaitzev portrayed by Jude Law, came to the aid of another, Joseph Fiennes character Danilov. The way Vassily fired his weapon was certainly what made the story. He soon became a member of a sniper crew.Thanks to Danilov his name and face was in the papers. His superiors made a big thing out of him. The country needed a hero and he was to be it. It wasn't long before the Germans sent in their top sniper, Major Konig played by Ed Harris, to try to locate this now famous Russian. The movie then went back and forth between the two men and what they were doing.The film was suspenseful. It had action, combat scenes, intrigue, heroes, villains, and a little romance. The ending left me bewildered but I'm not going to ruin it for you. This film was well worth watching.


Question: How is film?

Ok. Some people say this film is boring and has no meaning. Don't listen to them. If they don't like it that's because they can't wrap the meaning out. This film is on another, greater level. If somebody understands this  film 100% then it will be his or her favorite film. I personaly couldn't  understand this film all the way through but I still think it is the most  brilliant film ever made.

Question: Is the music cool?

For the most part, this dvd is excellent! Any Rush fan will love it, despite the obvious flaws. Compared to A SHOW OF HANDS, RUSH IN RIO is a masterpiece. But if you're talking about video quality in the editing department, the GRACE UNDER PRESSURE concert video is still the best.For all you video editors out there who are reading this: PEOPLE DON'T LIKE THE FAST JUMPING AROUND WITH THE CAMERAS EVERY HALF SECOND! Why are so many concert videos and dvd being filmed that way nowadays?! Look at Iron Maiden's Rock in Rio. That's a great band with a great performance, but the video editing is pure crap! I can't even watch that one. Rush In Rio isn't quite as bad as the Iron Maiden one, though. The camera shots jump around too fast mostly in the first half. Especially during the first 2 or 3 songs. Then it becomes a little less annoying in the 2nd half. Lately I've been starting with One Little Victory and watching it from there just because the camera work is too annoying during much of the first half.I think they should recall this dvd, then let ME come in and do the video editing and I'd make the video portion of the dvd perfect. And I'd do it for free!The sound has some minor flaws, but it's hard to tell on my tv because I don't have it hooked up to my stereo, so I can't give an accurate stereo quality review.There's a lot of energy from the audience which may annoy some people. For some reason, Brazilians like to yell and chant a lot. The energy from the band is amazing. Their performance is what really makes this dvd worth buying. Great song selection, too. At least one song from every album except Caress Of Steel and Hold Your Fire.Despite the annoying MTV style camera work and a sound quality that could have been better, this dvd is worth it.

Answer: a sound quality that could have been better

Question: Is the video good?

Unlike many of the currently posted reviews, I'm going to be reviewing the actual release, rather than speculating or complaining about the cover EDIT-Amazon now lists the proper cover shot as to what was used on the release).I received my Blu Ray of Destroy All Monsters today and promptly dropped it into the Blu Ray player.I commend Media Blasters/Tokyo Shock for releasing this one.From a story perspective, all the giant monsters are collected on a single island (Monster Island) for research purposes. Contact is lost with the control facility and what is discovered is that a race of aliens has taken control of the giant monsters. The giant monsters are sent to many different cities across the world and the human race must then wrestle control of the giant monsters back from the aliens. Fun stuff!Video:I'm torn here. I really, really wanted to love this release. What is there is 1080p HD in name, but the detail quality seems kind of low. I don't know what happened, but the colors seem washed out and faded while there are some instances of dust and dirt to be seen. Interestingly enough, you can still see the control cables and wires used for various special effects, so perhaps this was the best that could be done with it? I've read (and a commenter stated the possibility) that the source was a 35mm print.In my mind, the Blu Ray doesn't look to be much better than an upscaled DVD. I don't have the Media Blasters DVD to compare directly, so I don't know if it really is an upscale or not, but every indication points to this being a true HD source.Disappointing from an HD perspective certainly. If this is the same quality that was released in Japan (can't verify myself, sorry), then that tells me it is a source issue, but I don't know because I can't compare.Forums I've been to indicate this is the same master used on the Japanese release, but take that for what it is worth without validation.Audio:5.1 Japanese, along with 2.0 Japanese and English 2.0 (2 audio streams for English). I watched in Japanese 5.1 and the music and effects seem to be well separated in the front speakers, while the rear channels barely got much use. Since this was original recorded in 2.0 stereo anyway, I flipped over and I have to say the stereo separation is just about as good in my mind as the 5.1 in Japanese.I spot checked the English audio tracks and they seem to be on par in terms of audio quality as the Japanese. In terms of the quality of the English dub, I leave that to others to decide. Seems OK to me, but I expect hokey English on my giant monster movies anyway!Based on a comment on my review, I went back to check the English dub. I can confirm, without question, that BOTH the AIP AND the "International" Toho dub are, in fact, on this disc. Both English tracks are, however, in 2.0 Stereo ONLY. There is no 5.1 English dub. Not that most people who wanted the AIP dub would care that much, considering the film was in 2.0 stereo originally anyway.Packaging:For those of you in love with the image Amazon has up, be prepared to be disappointed. Or not, if you hated it. From the time it was displayed here to time of release, the cover has been changed. If you check out the Destroy All Monsters wikipedia entry, this release uses the poster artwork displayed there. It looks good to me.Otherwise the packaging is pretty bare bones. No inserts in the case or anything. Serviceable, but at $30 MSRP I'd have hoped for something a little better.Extras:Commentary is pretty good. Very nice to have it included.All of the trailers are in standard definition, which is OK I suppose.All of the Extras content is 480i and NOT 1080p.You get original trailers (English, Japanese, French (poor audio quality), RADIO spots for the AIP dub (English only with still images from the film) ), a storyboard image gallery, an 8mm reel from AIP (quality is poor, but it's still really cool to see this!) and image gallery.In my original Amazon review I ended up passing over a lot of the extras, so for that, I am terribly sorry.The extras on this disc are pretty fantastic in my mind. Media Blasters/Tokyo Shock put a lot of love into pulling together all of this material.Final Verdict:Destroy All Monsters is one of the best Godzilla movies around. It deserves to be owned, certainly. The Blu Ray release is probably the prettiest release the movie has seen, though that's not saying much with some of the previous releases.I've given it 4 stars because of the sloppy video (possibly not Media Blasters/Tokyo Shock's fault, I don't know). What is outstanding is the audio. Video drops the review by a star.If you don't already own it and enjoy the film, this is definitely worth picking up. If you are OK with the video quality on prior release and don't care about the AIP dub, keep your money.If you want the AIP English dub, this is THE release to get.Media Blasters/Tokyo Shock did an outstanding job on this release. Pulling together the trailers, the radio spots and even the commentary shows me that they actually appreciate the release as much as many fans. The video quality is the only mar on an outstanding release and it is something I can look past, as I've since learned that the video is from Toho's own remastered (in 2008) video.If you are a Godzilla fan, this is definitely worth the purchase price without question.

Question: What is the dialog in this movie?

The Matrix is one of the best cyber-punk films out there, hell might even be the best! The action is explosively entertaining, the plot is strong and original and the cast is excellent. Yes the...Dude!!.. himself Keanu Reeves is actually surprisingly great in the lead. He's confused and trying to figure out his role in life and god knows no one can look confused better than Reevs "lol", so he pulls off the role good. Lawence Fishbourne steals the show as Morphious though as does Hugo Weaving (The Lord of the Rings) as the lead villain Agent Smith. I also think the actor who plays Tank is very good but it's a shame, don't think he's gonna be in the sequels.Anyway this movie just kicks, I could watch the Kun-fu scenes without ever getting tired of them. The bullet-time effects are truly amazing, it's no wonder films like Charlie's Angels have tryed to rip it off. There's just so much good things I could say about this movie. For an action movie the plot makes you think, it's not another brainless action movie. The dialogue is memborable too, especially most of the lines that come out of Lawence Fishbourne's mouth. The Matrix is a truly amazing ride that's hard to forget. I can't wait for the sequels, bring em' on!!
