View Full Version : The Prestige UK release good? MattGuyOR 06-10-07, 03:37 AM I'm thinking about ordering this from amazon uk. It was just release last week and wanted to know if anyone has it or if they have found any reviews on it yet. Thanks! MichaelHDDVD 06-10-07, 03:53 AM I just ordered it from Xploitedcinema :D :D :D I hope it's a reference quality movie MattGuyOR 06-10-07, 05:06 AM They're more spendy than amazonuk. I can get Prestige and Goblet of Fire for about $64. Bob Black 06-10-07, 05:29 AM I just watched this last night and the PQ is excellent! I know the BD version has gotten great grades for its transfer, and this one is obviously no exception. A great flick as well. maingon 06-10-07, 09:55 AM PQ is pretty good. Theres some really sharp shots and a few soft softs. Its not king kong quality but its pretty good 7.5/10, audio while the dialoug is quiet the effects sound awesome. its a solid buy if you like the film. David_W 06-10-07, 12:43 PM I think the PQ and AQ are excellent. It's a solid recommendation for purchase. I hesitate to get into the "Tier" business...opinions for any given title are unbelievably chaotic, to the point of being frustrating. If you like the movie and have a decent set-up...let's just say that you won't be disappointed with the presentation. Rakesh.S 06-10-07, 01:26 PM it'd be nice if a company in the US purchased a whole slug of these and sold them at normal prices (~20). $40 shipped is just too expensive :(. Geoff D 06-10-07, 04:21 PM If you've got Batman Begins, you'll already have a fair idea of how The Prestige looks, i.e. fairly soft and grain-free, with a muted colour palette. I guess Christopher Nolan likes 'em that way. A solid disc all the way, although mine will be heading to ebay shortly. HomerJay 06-10-07, 05:07 PM I would highly recommend this title... :) ...I might be a bit biased...I just love the movie and it's great to have it on HD DVD. I do not have a system that can be used to determine peak performance (i.e. 720p system)...I thought it looked great. Of course, I would have preferred a TrueHD soundtrack or at least 1.5Mbps DD+ like Universal uses.

The BD has uncompressed 24-bit PCM and sounds amazing. MattGuyOR 06-10-07, 05:26 PM Thanks, I might pick it up from Amazon with Goblet of Fire. I have a new Panny AE1000U projector and it's amazing! |
