    PREDATORS (2010) quite good

    Adrien Brody and some others are dropped mysteriously into the jungle of an unknown planet and must fight for survival when they realize they are being hunted by Predators. Doesn't call for a lot of acting on Brody's part, but he carried off the role of an action hero quite well. Lots of action and darn near as good as Arnold's PREDATOR. Highly recommended for action/horror lovers.

    Who that's what you think this was really bad from my perspective, I even fell asleep halfway through it!

        Yes the image was crisp but the sound was sub-par and the story way boring...

              The sound? I think the score and the surround sound processing are the best parts of the movie.

                Yeah, that's why I was surprised wettou fell asleep. The low end was making my walls rumble.

                  Rented this over the weekend off iTunes on my AppleTV. I thought it was pretty good. The sound seemed to be mixed well with a healthy dose of bottom end, and the dialogue was clean and not buried or too forward. The story was actually more believable for me than the last 3 Predator films, and the acting wasn't as bad as Arnold's in my view. Picture was only 720p so I can't say the visuals were stunning, but they definitely looked good at that resolution. Solid rentable material.

                    It wasn't bad at all. I really enjoyed it.
                    I read a lot of the reviews before I went out to see it (even though I was going to watch it regardless :B). A lot of of reviews mentioned it was ok, pretty good, not as good as the first, or just a B movie. Those are the things I read. When I left...

                    Dang... I really tried to go to CES this year. I have event tickets and everything. Unfortunately, couldn't make it happen, and instead I'm actually at the very tip of the Aleutian Islands in Alaska right now.

                    Some news from Parasound at CES 2010. Sweet. Wish I was there. Anybody...

                    TEARS OF THE SUN

                    Okay, now, let's be honest. Out of today's crop of actors, who does the action hero better than Bruce Willis ? In Tears Of The Sun he is at his best. At first portraying a tough Navy Seal, but who later breaks his own rules and gets involved by going against orders....
