Great movie. I'll buy also.
Hidefdigest says this will have DTS HD track... Any confirmation as to which lossless track will be on the disc? I know Sony usually only use True HD...
Very forgettable film. It should have been great but was so lacking. Skip.
Actually a really great film, a pretty damn good remake, will buy.
First half was good,the rest sucked big time!!!I'll pass.....
This remake was pretty good, as typical Hollywood fare goes. Although I didn't enjoy the film enough for me to impulsively buy this. However, a rental is possible. I am a bit disappointed that the extras are just standard, rather than plentiful 
Great underrated movie. It will include TrueHD not DTS-HD
Missed seeing it in theaters. will catch it on DVD.
My uncle wanted to see this movie, so if he winds up watching it somehow, I'll ask him how it was.
Saw it in the theater. Never saw the original with Walter Matthau, but I ended up really liking this. Denzel and Tony Scott's best collab yet. Guess I'll probably be picking this up, along with Heat on Nov. 3rd.....

I really wanted to love this film, i liked it but it wasnt great. My 2 biggest complaints were the last half getting too familar and travolta not knowing how comical or serious to take the role. I had problems with that
"...if you want a doo doo rhyme then come see me..."
Sorry, but you knew somebody was gonna say it...

gawd - this is only just in theatres down under
Does anyone go to Denzel Washington movies anymore? He has been in a lot of c**p lately. And the only good thing John Travolta has been in, in the last 10 years was Hair Spray and he was dressed as a woman. lol. When it is 4 for $20 at Blockbuster I may pick it up.

I'm saving my dough for "Up." I'll probably rent it but still, I am saving my dough for "Up."
Glad they went with that art work.

I'm gonna catch this on Thursday. I agree with you, that Denzel hasn't done anything great lately, but really happy for Travolta returning to the big screen, not dressed as a woman of course. This doesn't look great BTW. The trailer is rather lame, bring home half a gallon of milk, I mean what the heck?

Really enjoyed it, loved the original but this was a solid Tony Scott edition.
What's going on with Denzel's shoulder by Travolta in the second promo poster? Rather odd.

A completely forgettable mess of a movie. Skip it.
Finally saw it today. Fairly disappointed, the film lacked intensity and there was no real suspense. Also the switch between dialogue driven scenes and 'need for speed' scenes didn't help, I'm not really a fan of Tony Scott, but even with his standard, this is fairly poor.

Hi Tom,
Do you have the back cover too ? just to know if it's noted ABC on it ...
Thanks

Artwork stinks. Oh and btw...
S-M-I-T-H-S-O-N-I-A-N, what does that spell? Smithsonian. Which title has that name? Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. I want information for that movie NOW!!!!
Also am waiting for "Angels & Demons," but still I want information for "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian."
Will get this film off of Netflix.

Why does Travolta clearly have no eyes?
I'm so NOT buying this
