This is a blind buy for me as well. Anyone pick up the special edition at Best Buy? Is it worth it?

You better order online with in-store pickup or get to the store ASAP. People are reporting that stores are only getting a few copies.

Did you get the collector's edition?

A friend paid my way cause nobody wanted to go with him and I really didn't want to see it but what the hell.

Turns out I liked it a bit better than him but that to tell the truth isn't saying much. Glad I didn't pay to see it!

If you like really well done science fiction then yes its a great film and a must buy! If you are looking for a constant special effects fest with no originality then no rent it.

just got mine at Target with 5$ off coupon. Side note: on an inside liner page, there is a picture for an upcoming blu release, "Boondock Saints 2: All Saints Day". I'm I the only one who never heard of this before?

It's been in the theaters, Liq - a little late,

About to do the same as you, though.

I actually saw it in the theater. It was alright...but not as good as the original Boondock Saints.

Yes, I'm going to pick up my order soon.

I really liked it, found it original and entertaining, but there were some people who were disappointed in it - so, like always, do not blind buy.

Let me know what you think when you get it.

Vicon · 12-22-2009, 05:07 PM

Here are some pics. I am really happy I bought this. It's a nice little package honestly. Not cheap/cheesy. You get the vest, book, slip, digital copy and all that. A little expensive, but I have saved so much on other blu's, why not splurge!

If you like a throw your brain out at the door movie.. It has some good comedy and decent action scenes. The main actor is good, the rest of the characters are forgettable.

It is enjoyable and I'll probably watch again eventually but I don't feel the urge to own it.

Really? Throw your brain out?
I think this is a film that does make you think. Its various sub-plots and messages about segregtion make sure of that.
It is a good Sci-Fi but keep your thinking cap on

It looks really cool. Gotta get it!

BDestroyer8418 · 12-22-2009, 05:26 PM

Yup I bought the copy with the Vest. After all the saving on all these BD this month I went for it. My store only had 8 they went fast. Guy in front of me grabbed his and turned around and said this is it I though it was a real vest. I couldn't help but

in front of him.

For $30 the movie along is worth it. But then I did swing over to Target at get Family Guy for $11.99 so I just about made up for the price there if you didn't no about the coupons.

Time to go watch it now.

Did someone watch it on the PS3 ?
