    We're sorry, but that format no longer operates. :p

    It's a pretty good flick. :)

    OUtstanding title, watched in HD DVD. Agreed, SQ was unreal, tons of LFE. Makes those SVS subs shine.

    The bass was just insane. I had to acutally turn down my SVS plus/2 because it was just way overboard. My pant legs were literally flapping during some of the scenes. I have never before bottomed out my sub but about 16.5 minutes into the movie I heard what I think was the sub bottoming out.

    Great movie also.

    Turns out my receiver malfunctioned and was putting out an ungodly amount of LFE when I watched it last night. Same volume level settings today and I had "normal" bass levels. Go figure.

    I enjoyed the "movie". I can see where this would appeal big time to gamers. At first I had the impression I was watching a video game but I soon got over that and began to enjoy it. Graphics were good. The surround track was excellent. Angelina was yummy!:D

    Two thumbs down and I could give a rat's a$$ about the sound track.

    I only lasted 5 minutes as I didn't know it was going to be digital/animated.
    I'm old school, either make a film or make a cartoon.

    You don’t have to be too literal when watching this movie. Just let the story evolved its animation what else you expect it is like a visual art some people like it some don’t. :):):)
