Movie Reviews of The Punisher [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Great movie, but not blu-ray quality picture
Summary: 3 Stars

No complaints about the movie, Punisher is a great movie. I purchased the Blu-ray hoping that it would look amazing, but it did not. In my opinion, it is not even equal to the dvd version upconverted, so if you are looking to buy this for the simple reason it is Blu-Ray, price shop and see if dvd costs less. You will likely be getting a better product.

I viewed the Blu-ray on a 52 inch Samsung/1080/120hz, Samsung Blu-ray, and Monster 800 HDMI cable.

Movie Review: Average Action Movie
Summary: 3 Stars

The soundtrack was engaging and a real positive aspect of this movie.
The plot and dialog were run of the mill hollywood action revenge mindless
cinema. the video transfer deserves high scores for the deep blacks and lack of
video banding.

Movie Review: Not the Best Blu-ray Purchase
Summary: 3 Stars

An excellent film and one I should have just purchased on DVD. The video isn't terrible, it's just not up to par with some of the newer blu-ray releases.

Movie Review: great movie awful blu-ray
Summary: 2 Stars

This is one of my favorite movie's however this blu-ray transfer is the worst I've seen yet and I own over 40 blu-ray disc's.First let me tell you I use a new Sony S3000 blu-ray player with a Sony XBR Bravia LCD and it is all properly calibrated so I do know what I see,having said that this picture quality is no better than the standard DVD release,maybe very very slightly more vibrant colors let me say again maybe slightly.After that there's the audio there is no PCM uncompressed or TrueHD audio,only 5.1EX its good but again the same audio as the standard dvd release.Now here's the kicker its not the extented cut which adds about 20 min. to the movie and its a worthwhile 20min. adding a new sub plot to the movie.I rarely say go for the standard dvd release or in this case the extended cut dvd,actually I've never said that but thats what I would suggest you do here,oh yeh its cheaper to.

Movie Review: Blu-ray is not hi-def
Summary: 2 Stars

REVIEW OF BLU-RAY DISK ONLY. This Blu-ray disk may be in the blu-ray format, but the resolution is no better than what you'd expect from a normal, anamorphic DVD. It was actually distracting to me, because I was expecting 1080i resolution, and I got the fuzziness I would have expected from a normal DVD.

I fear we may be getting alot this in the early days of Blu-ray and hi-definition TVs. I remember the same thing happening in the early days of DVD about 11 years ago. DVD was capable of much better resolution than a VHS tape, but many DVDs were not significantly sharper than a good VHS tape. Now the same thing is happening with Blu-rays: some of them do not have significantly better resolution than what a good anamorphic DVD would have, and this product is one such disk.
