DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Batman Begins - Two Disc Deluxe Edition (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED). (1 Viewer)

[Matt Stone]

Man, I can't wait to get this one. Batman Begins is the best film I've seen so far this year.

 

[Chris Atkins]

Man, I can't wait to get this one. Batman Begins is the second-best film I've seen so far this year.

 

[Jason_V]

Not to jump on the bandwagon, but I'm having a full day of Batman in two weeks. The "original" four movies plus this. Now lets hope next year's Superman is as good.

Thanks for the review, Herb. It was wasted on me (I know what to expect from WB in terms of quality, and I already knew what was missing that I wanted - commentary) I expect a nicer SE in 2.5 years (to get ready for the sequel), but I am buying this with no gripes.

One of the finer examples of using a genre instead of being used by one. Fantastic film all-around, and I expect it'll be quite a popular DVD, as a few folks figure out what they missed this summer. Definitely one of the best films a summer blockbuster "formula" has yielded.

Can't believe it's only two weeks away!

Thanks again,
Chuck

You need to add the animated films to this Bat-fest.



Me, I will buy any double-dip, triple-dip, etc of this film. Love it and thanks for the great review!

 

[DustinPizarro]

Excellent review Herb!!! As one of the better comic book film adaptations this will be an easy and quick buy considering the inevitable HD version. Can't wait for this one!

 

[Mike Wadkins]

saw it twice at the flicks cant wait to give it a spin great review as always Herb

 

[Dannie]

grrrrrrrrrrrr they only got in the stupid one disc today of begins

Hi all,

(First post, so i thought I'd start in a safe thread )

Not only the best batman film, but probably one of best films this year. I'd be a fool not to pick this one up. Thanks for a great review, its going to be worth it for the Tumbler documentary alone.

(I love that vehicle!!)

i'll be getting the region 3 [2 disc]. no "single disk for the same price as the old two disc price" nonsense for me. region 3 will have same audio and video [NTSC] and is a 2 disk. not only that, i can pick it up for the same price or a bit less than the single disk region 1.

region free can be very liberating sometimes. cuts down on the BS you have to put up with i find.

 

[Kain_C]

Will pick up, but I'm a little disappointed with the extras. Just seems like a bunch of short docs to me. Without a commentary, deleted scenes, and a true thorough single making-of doc, it isn't something I'd give 5 stars to. I'd also like to have seen more promotional material.

But, like I said, I will definitely pick this up.

 

[oscar_merkx]

great action film indeed.

is there another version coming as there is no audio com?

 

[ChrisYK]

My wife wanted to put this movie up on our Netflix que, but I told her no need as we'd be owners when it comes out

 

[TonyD]

gotta love screen caps in a review.

herb would you consider adding the date of release to the reviews?

 

[Dave Mack]

Great review!

Missed this in the theatres and can't wait! A friend of mine, Catherine Porter is in this, she plays the
TV reporter/Asassin


Will be a treat.

Good work, Warner!

 

[Carlo_M]

Definitely a day-n-date for me as well. This was the only movie I've seen twice in the theaters in a very, very long time.

As long as the inevitable double dip has a longer cut of the film and all-new extras I won't complain (too much ) about having to buy it twice.

Of course, with HD-DVD/Blu Ray coming out next year, I'm going to be buying this movie twice regardless...

 

[Tim Glover]

Great review Herb. Can't wait to own the dvd!

 

[Paul Anthony]

A Deluxe Edition is NOT a "Deluxe Edition" without a Commentary! As much as I love "Batman Begins"...no commentary, no sale.

 

[Carlo_M]

Even if the director didn't want to do one?

Just curious

 

[Dave H]

Paul,

How could you not buy a movie you love just because it doesn't contain a commentary?! I don't mean this to sound sarcastic -- but I find that very, very curious.
