Calm down, man. Movies are subjective things, what works for one person doesn't work for everyone.

The HD Extra rating also appears to be based on content that is exclusive to the Blu-Ray disc. While I think that it should be based on the quality of/resolution of extras, the site apparently feels that Blu-Rays should come with exclusive features.

Calm down, relax, and enjoy the movie based on your own merits rather than a reviewers.

This is the internet, home of random rage against opinions. I could honestly see quite a few people stating those opinions honestly. lol.

Holy crap, he compared it to scream? Thats like saying "Gold did for metal what hagweed did for plants." It just didnt make any sense.

He starts off acting like he's gonna dissect it because it's not flawless, then does nothing but praise it, then says his only complaint is it's too long........ and then gives it a 4 out 5? I could kinda see a 4.5. If he wanted it to be perfect to get a 5 I'd love to see what movie out there is perfect.

I actually agree with him on TDK and I usually despise his take on films. Like him, I felt that the third act was jumbled and lacked a cohesive thesis that pulled together the 3 or 4 different themes running around, in addition to Two-Face being wasted and feeling forcefully tacked on (he would have been better suited as the main villian in the next film).

It was still an amazing and deep film. Its quite possible to love something and still have some complaints.

wtf is this: "Unfortunately, my caveat is that there is edge enhancement that results in visible edge halos. "

. Anyway keep me updated. I don't have clicks to waste.

Uhhh, right. Considering we live in a 1 format world now and almost 99% of what they review and cover is blu ray based I would say you are wrong.
