These newer films look fantastic on Blu-ray, better action, stunts and special effects. If you love these newer Bond movies, grab them on Blu-ray, they're awesome!

I love Bond on Blu!
on October 21, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
I know some people won't agree but Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig are my favorite Bonds. Mostly because the stories, action, stunts and special effects are so much better than the older films and to me, that makes the stories more believable. Seeing these films on Blu-ray are like heaven for me, if you love them too, then grab them on Blu-ray, you won't regret it.

Bond on Blu-ray, need I say more?
on September 20, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
Timothy Dalton's first time as bond and he does it well. He may not be my favorite Bond but he manages it just fine and with more action and gadgets than the classics, I'm happy, especially on Blu-ray. I found these at BB on sale and couldn't be happier, grab one for yourself.

Bond on Blu-ray, never looked better
on September 5, 2014
Posted by: hotrodguy
from Woodland Hills, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the more modern Bond films as they start to add more cars and gadgets and become more action style films than just thriller spy movies. Now don't me wrong, I love all the older ones too for their stories and acting and I have all of them on BD and they've never looked better but I'm an action kind of guy, so I lean more towards the newer ones for that reason. MGM did a great job on all the films, picture quality, remastered sound, tons of extras, every one of them is worth owning so don't hesitate now, grab them while you can.

Bond on Blu, it doesn't get any better
on August 7, 2014
Posted by: hotrodguy
from Woodland Hills, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not going to review the film because we all know the film, I'm reviewing the disc.I'm so happy to see all the Bond movies remastered on Blu-ray, they look fantastic! Audio has a 5.1 option as well as the mono mix but the 5.1 is a lot clearer and more defined even though most of the soundstage is in the front but it doesn't disappoint. Video is superb and the extras almost seem to have no end. If you get a chance to grab any of these, especially on sale, do it!

MWTGG has never looked better!

Verified Purchase:Yes
MGM did a great job remastering all the James Bond movies and this is no exception. I just re-did my theater at home and now I get to see all these classics on the big screen, better than ever before! I love the newer films when they start to incorporate more action and especially the gadgets but you can't go wrong with any of them so if you're thinking about buying any of the Bond discs, stop thinking and just go for it.

A great sequel to the first one
on July 3, 2014
Posted by: hotrodguy
from Woodland Hills, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
While this may not be quite as good as the first, it is definitely a great movie. I love the style in which this was shot, like the first and on BD, it's even more spectacular. There is great chemistry between the actors and it conveys on the screen. If you liked the first, you will like this one too and the BD version does not disappoint. It would nice to see these made into a trilogy.

Another typical heist crime revenge movie
on April 9, 2014
Posted by: hotrodguy
from Woodland Hills, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
This isn't a bad movie but it is a typical heist gone awry with revenge movie. Don't get me wrong, I really like Jason Statham and he does a good job here but it seems more of a "cookie cutter" style film even with Taylor Hackford at the helm. The film contains the usual story and fight sequences seen in many other Stahtam films, nothing too new here. Picture and sound quality are very good but with a minmal amount of extras. There are other Statham movies I would watch again before this one but if you're a die hard fan of his work, you might like this one too.

Better than I thought it would be, for a remake
on April 9, 2014
Posted by: hotrodguy
from Woodland Hills, CA
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you're familiar with the original and weren't expecting much from this remake, you may be in for a surprise. This was actually a lot better than I thought it would be, yes basic story line is the same with some homages to the original but I think this one bumped it up a notch with more intense action, modern special effects and one heck of a soundtrack. A great delight for your home theater to take advantage of your system. I know some people don't like remakes and still may not like this one but if you do, give it a shot, I did and I'm enjoying every minute of it.

A great follow up to the first one

Verified Purchase:Yes
This a great sequel to the first film with excellent acting, cinematography and audio mix. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one too. This Blu-ray really excells in picture and sound quality making you feel like you're part of the movie itself. If you have all the latest equipment, TV or projector, receiver and speakers, then you'll really enjoy this movie at home. Definitely worth adding to your collection.
