Derailed - Blu-ray Forum

TheRescue · 12-30-2010, 02:21 PM

Has anybody found this in stores? It came out Tuesday, and I know Best Buy isn't carrying it in stores, but wasn't sure if someone came across it at a Wal-Mart or Target or something. Otherwise I guess I'll just order it on Amazon.

I didn't even know it got a U.S. release. Its a great thriller.

I haven't seen this in any stores. I ordered up a copy from Amazon. Can't go wrong for $13.99. I haven't seen it yet, but figured I would give it a try as I've always been a fan of Clive Owen and Vincent Cassel.

Has anyone seen the US version yet? The review is pretty bad as far as the PQ goes and that really sucks if thats the case. This is a really good film although I knew the twist before it happened. Got Em!!

Anybody know if the transfer on this disc is really that bad? As in, is the supposedly mediocre transfer more a result of shoddy encoding/compression or is it actually just that the movie looks essentially like it's supposed to and the transfer is just mediocre because the movie was designed with a look that doesn't scream great hd?

I actually liked this movie. It was also the first time I heard someone call somebody an "uppercrust Mf'er."

It’s not horrible, but it’s not great either. It’s not that bad, and no idea how it was filmed

Is the Blu-ray a significant upgrade from the DVD?

Don't know about the US release, but the Canadian Alliance release looked OK. I'd probably rate the PQ somewhere between a 3 and 3.5 out of 5. However, the Alliance release is in the 1.78:1 ratio (not the original ratio). It's not cropped though, just opened up more which I actually prefer.

I think it's underrated.
Here in the UK hardly anyone has heard of it sadly.
