Extras: Deleted Scenes Featurettes Interviews Scene Access My Thoughts: I really like the first half of this movie. Great introductions of the characters. But as with the first time I have watched it in the cinema, I felt it lost something from the moment "Kevin" appears. And then shortly after with all the talking dogs. It's a little too ridiculous even for a movie where a house flies with balloons. But still the second half is worth watching. Some great action scenes, which were even better in 3D.Rating: (From Tom's Random Reviews on June 26th, 2010) Unbreakable, a review by DVDsRGreatTitle: Unbreakable Overview: Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson star in a mind-shattering, suspense-filled thriller that stays with you long after the end of this riveting supernatural film. After David Dunn (Willis) emerges from a horrific train crash as the sole survivor - and without a single scratch on him - he meets a mysterious stranger (Jackson). An unsettling stranger who believes comic book heroes walk the earth. A haunting stranger whose obsession with David will change David's life forever. My Thoughts After the Sixth Sense, expectations from M. Night Shyamalan were so high that this one was considered a disappointment by a lot of people. I kind of liked the concept: (click to show/hide) Not sure if I'll watch this again anytime soon as once you know the ending you start anticipating the story ahead as you watch it and it spoils the fun.

An unknown element with advanced mech technology, this mysterious organization has been running things from behind the scenes. As dissension spreads throughout the ranks of Mithril, Sousuke faces his own internal struggle. Spread thin between schoolwork and war, the powers that be have decided to lighten his load... beginning with Kaname! Life and death hang in the balance as the clash between good and evil scale new heights. When the smoke clears, Sousuke's path will be the one that he forges for himself. Extras: Bonus Episode 000; Bonus OVA; Textless Songs Commentary Featurettes Scene Access Trailers My Thoughts: The third installment in the Full Metal Panic series. And what an emotional roller coaster ride!Whereas the first series mixes a serious story-arc with light fun episodes, this series is mostly drama. Essentially a 180 to the previous (second) series FUMOFFU which was fun-only. Also the extras on this DVD set a quite fun. A 7-part featurette where the original author and the series director are going location scouting in Hong Kong. Although it gets rather boring with the video footage, the two provide fun commentary to it, which seldomly has anything to do with the video footage. Then we have audio commentaries for all episodes with the Japanese voice cast. Again, there are mostly talking about everything except about the episodes . But I enjoyed them nonetheless. The best extra feature of course is the bonus episode centering around the Tessa character. Originally it was released in Japan on DVD-only one year after The Second Raid series. This episode is comedy pure! Rating: Here is something rather fun: The audio of the Spider-Man 2 trailer put to video footage from Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid http://youtube.com/watch?v=mbFngmMz15o (From Tom's Random Reviews on June 7th, 2008) |
