QUICKSHOT REVIEW of A PERFECT GETAWAY with a BONUS!!



It is a 90's film that is overdue. The cast did a good job with the film and they all bring something that makes you question each of them in their actions. The cinematography and the editing was just fine, but I thought that the biggest fault with the film came with the last act of the picture.

It kinda felt a bit like a cheat and it just didn't seem smooth. Even though they do build up mythos for the audience, you just feel like you just go "Why did I just sit through this film?" It had interesting plot structure and I'm glad i got to see it, but I can't quite recommend it to spend 10$ on at the theater. Some will be split on the ending. I for one think that the spin was great, but they just had the wrong angle to the ending. Overall, not a terrible movie and not a really good one either. I'd say it's a very low RENTAL because it's something that one can rent and not feel as cheated as paying full price to see this on the big screen.

Time for Your Bonus!

My personal Top 5 Blu-Rays to show yur balls with!

BONUS Guys! I just got a new HDTV LCD set and I decided to take it upon myself to screen some of the blu-rays I have in my collection. These are films that I own on Blu-ray or have seen in person and they all tend to blow me away with the quality. So check em out!

Blade Runner (1982)
For this film being nearly 20 years old, you can tell that Ridley Scott put his blood sweat and tears into every single frame of this film as each shot just blows ya away, and on Blu-Ray the experience is only better. The Tears in the rain scene just knocks me out and is a beautiful scene both visually and contextually. Overall, great 80's film to revisit in high def!
DEMO SCENE- The Tears in the rain scene


Sunshine- Viberant and Vivid colors make this one a definite high def reccomend. It is one of Danny Boyle's Underrated films and ya owe it to yurself to give it a chance as it a really specially film!

DEMO SCENE- The Last 10 Mins of the film!

Ben Button - David Fincher + Criterion Issued Blu-ray = RECOMMEND!! NUFF SAID!
Demo Scene - Any scene with Younger Cate Blanchet or The opening act of the film

Dark Knight- NUFF SAID!

Demo Scene- Any IMAX SEQUENCE or any scene with the Joker!

Sin City- Frank Miller's Graphic Novel come to life is truly a sight to behold with the various color corrections done, this is just a definite recommend to a fantastically translated book!
DEMO SCENE- The Whole Movie!

Ok....here's a little sumthin if ya wanna show yur balls to that significant other, then here's a lil sumthin for that at home special cinematic selection.

Across The Universe- Just a visual and audibly well put together film that is sure to be a surprise for both members of the sexes and a treat for Beatles fans. Great movie to watch on a date or when ya get a pound of the best local hash :P

Hope ya have a great time with your home theater on your couch and set!
