That is ****ing baller. It perfectly encapsulates the movie.

[trevrox]

Is this worth a blind buy at $22.99?

[TheSweetieMan]

How can anyone actually answer that?


I could tell you it’s worth a blind buy at $5, but if you hate the movie, you hate the movie.

[Brahmzy]

This movie had SO much potential...

[nick4Knight]

This movie is worth a blind buy if you have capable HDR. So if you got an OLED or a FALD LED you're in for a treat

What about the story and the movie’s plot?

Yeah, it's got that too. What about it?

[NotASpeckOfCereal]

That's a decent price though. If you ended up not liking it, you could probably turn around and sell it for that, minus what it would have costed you to rent it.

I think it's serviceable plot and story. I like it enough but don't love it? Put it this way if I was into streaming I would only rent this for 4 or 5 bucks and watch it once every few years...

I'm not gonna detach the visuals/HDR from being a giant percentage the reason I clamor to own this and demo it all the time. I saw it on a mates Sony TV (who imported the U.S release). Some of the visuals in this really give you a sense how amazing Avatar would look on 4K UHD

I just ordered that Zavvi steel. I was going to order the US release once the BB exclusivity period was up, but I procrastinated and now rewarded with the steel.

Will have to wait until April to watch, but it will be worth it...

Slips.

[kristoffer]

I have this in the post. I figure it is the same release as the US version?

[guile]

I only recently saw this for the first time and LOVED IT! I've watched it a second time since and it definitely stands up to repeated viewings.

[kristoffer]

I watched it on Netflix and can't wait to rewatch it as well as hearing the brilliant soundtrack in lossless glory.

[Jexes23]

Just watched. Absolutely awesome movie. I can’t wait for what Alex Garland will do next, I think this guy is a rising star.

Just picked this up as a blind buy for $20 off Amazon. From everything I have read, I'm in for a treat! Looking forward to watching it very soon.
