Anyone seen it? Is it worth a blindbuy?

dvd_mazter · 12-15-2008, 02:37 PM

I haven't seen it but I work at a video store and plenty of people have given me feedback on it and it seems to be a decent film. I have heard to is a bit slow though. Sorry, I couldn't be more help

It has received a lot of great reviews. Hey, check roger ebert's site and type the title in. Se if he's done a review on it... if you find you agree with his reviews that is. I find I agree with about 95% of what he says.

It's a decent movie, def is slow. I will keep it as a rental for myself.

It's a slower, more cerebral film than it is an action piece. Great acting, great script. Definately worth the money.

Well I would rather watch that then mindless action film with no acting or story

Hey Crim... I frickin' LOVE the Outer Banks! Went there with the girlfriend for a week in late Sept'... definately gonna go again.

Sad to say I have never been, my American History teacher from HS grew up there and he said its beautiful. I will probably go this summer, hear they have good skim there!

Redbelt is one of my favorite movies. It should be a great movie no matter what, but definitely get it if you are interested in martial arts (especially Jiu-Jitsu). It can be considered slow and intellectual, but there are also great martial arts sequences.

im a very big mma and jiu-jitsu fan but was very disapointed with this movie, not as much action as you would think, most of it took place int he trailers

For me this is a must-own. I think Martin Liebman's review says it all:
