HD DVD Buying GuideHere is a list of the HD DVDs we have reviewed and recommend.
In Sum: Spinning flying tarzan Ju jitsu. Should you buy? Hell yes.
I was never really a fan of The Rock. I thought he did a fine job when he hosted SNL, but other than that, I could care less. That is until I saw this movie - The Rundown. Holy crap this ...
In sum: Weird. Should you buy? Sure.
This is one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen. The movie is presented in vector animation, which is very cool. Luckily the use of graphics did not detract from the film but added to its weirdness, if you ...
In sum: Smokin' Hot. Should you buy? Yes.
Last week I put up my review of A Clockwork Orange - one of the most appropriately violent movies I had ever seen. It is mere coincidence then that the second most appropriately violent movie, Smokin' Aces, gets its review ...
In sum: Very Good. Should you buy: yes
Yes, Yes and Yes. This is a great movie to watch in HD. Ron Howard's Apollo 13 is a great movie, probably one of his best known movies as well. Visually, HD DVD is an awesome format for this picture. There ...
In sum: Very Good. Should you buy: If you love Kubrick.
Clockwork Orange is one of the most appropriately violent films of all times, set to the music of Ludig von Beethoven. The book is marvelous and Kubrick's version of the movie is a tour de force of psychology, witticism and ...
In sum: Boobalicious aciton. Should you buy: indifferent
I'll start off by saying I don't like Angelina Jolie. I am straight, but apart from her rockin' boobs, she's just too skinny. I would have preferred anyone of the other Lara models play Lara. Secondly, I was only semi-fan of the ...
In sum: Hot! (get it?). Should you buy? Yes
Ron Howard's breakout mega-film of the early 90's. A huge hit in the theatres, you would think a movie about big fires would translate well into HD ... and it does. Like all our reviews, we skip the plot reviews ...
In sum: Childhood memories I love! Should you buy? Yes.
Billed as a poor man's Star Wars, The Last Starfighter was another 1980's space adventure. Starfighter was unique because of the groundbreaking use of CGI. The results of CGI in Starfighter made it look more like Starfox rather than photorealistic CGI. ...
In sum: Awesome live show, looks stellar. Should I buy: If you like Method
Method's first live concert video, in HD DVD of course, and I got my grubby hands on an advance copy! Before we get to the review I want to point out that this is a DVD put out by a ...
Director Chris Columbus did a great job with this movie. These Potter movies are feeling more mature as Harry grows up - and that's a benfit to the series. Additionally, none of these movies can stand on thier own,you have ...
This was probably the best Harry Potter of the first three movies. Harry is older, less childlike, the direction was darker and the image quality is at its best. Additionally, the format was different; the first two were too formulaic. Too bad ...
A few days ago we reviewed Year one: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone from Harry Potter Years 1-5 Box Set. last night we viddied Year two: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This was the first time I had seen ...
I REALLY Love HD DVDs, especially when the HD DVD version improves the story. This is *exactly* what Richard Donner did with his release of Superman II. As stated in our review of Superman: The Movie both Superman: The Movie and ...
One of my all time favorites movies from my childhood remastered to my all time favorite video format ... what could go wrong? Not much. what could be improved? The image - looks dated. I sure love watching this movie ...
The Harry Potter book series has become one of the most treasured book ever. The series turned its author J.K Rowling into a bagillionaire, and the five Harry Potter movies similarly made gobs and gobs of cash. The magical nature ...
This is the first full length animation in HD DVD (not including King Kong) that we reviewed. I probably should have done this *before* Christmas but ... the best laid plans of mice and men ... It is also the ...
It seems that every Stanley Kubrick movie is the last word in that genre. That is true for Full Metal Jacket. The penultimate story about the Marines and the consequenses of war is finally released on HD DVD; viddy this film ...
2001 is Kubrick's 1968 masterpiece. Unlike Bullitt, released in the same year, the HD DVD transfer of this film is infalable. The soundtrack is offered in glorious TrueHD and the effect is stunning. Kubrick was a filmmaker who relied upon ...
Unforgiven is Clint Eastwood's depiction of what a western should be. Until we can compare it to There Will be Blood it will stand as one of, if not the, best western ever made. Uncluttered by an obtrusive soundtrack, the expansive ...
I can't say that I am a fan of "drifting" (or as I have called it for years: "powersliding") so I reluctantly watched this fast pased drama about an American teenager shipped to Japan after destroying a housing project while ...
Last night I had the pleasure of watching Ridley Scott's masterpiece Blade Runner in beautiful HD DVD. Blade Runner is the story of a Deckard, a retired cop played by Harrison Ford who returns to service to hunt 4 Replicants ...
Probably the best Batman in the series. Christian Bale gives a convincing and likable performance as the Dark Knight. This movie is filled with environments and imagery that come across perfectly in the HD DVD format. I first saw this ...
Crunch Gear Recommends Xbox 360 elite PLUS the HD DVD player – So do we!
Now that is a complete HD setup! Next-Gen HD gaming and Next Gen HD Movies. The Elite has HDMI out so you can get all the HD goodness, plus you can run an optical out for audio. Here is what ...
Racing movies should be able to really take advantage of the HD DVD format to present a stunning audio and visual experience. The concept being that cars unrestricted by mufflers or other contraptions are racing around the room. If you ...
When I saw this movie in the theatre I was really let down. Jan Hammer was replace with Linkin Park, Tubbs was not the likable silent partner he was in the series. There was a Ferrari and go-fast boats, but ...
King Kong is one of those movies that looks good in both HD and SD formats. In HD however, the environment is greatly expanded by the clarity of the picture and audio. The only downside is that the image is ...
This is why the HD DVD was made. Transformers is a great show from the 80's that I would watch everyday after school. I could not wait for this movie to be released in theatres and I was ecstatic when ...
