I was really surprised how much I enjoyed this. It's light fare, but it does a good job of it and has some good moments. I have to think there should be a pack of deleted scenes, though. There seems to be plenty of moments where you jump a bit too fast.


From an email I received:

The Exclusive Bluray Addition will be 'The Labyrinth of Doors: Interactive Map of New York,' an interactive feature that allows you to jump from video pod to video pod via a map interface.

I'm really hoping there is a branching option for the deleted scenes to be re-inserted, but I'll take it either way I suppose.

Just my 2 cents. Imho although there were some good scenes, I didn't like this one. I'd take Source Code over it by a good margin.

Definite purchase. Still a candidate for best movie of the year for me.

Wow...okay, but it's still early in the year.


Thought the film was okay, but mostly I was

underwhelmed by it all. Not bad. Not great.


One thing that seemed odd about it was the

choice of music during a chase scene. Seemed

highly inappropriate.

I know movies are coming to disc sooner than ever, but this one really did seem to get an upcoming release announcement quickly.

By that comment, I meant that nothing else I've seen so far has surpassed it. I certainly hope and expect that my moviegoing for 2011 hasn't already peaked.


That being said, I did really love the film. More than a lot of other people.

I did, too. Not the greatest film ever, but I had a great time. I have a weakness for PK Dick-based ideas, and was with this one all the way. Looking forward to commentary and extras.
