Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Unless it's remastered, don't be suprised if BR verson on older titles is only kinda better... Comment: People, if it ain't remastered, it's only going to be a moderate improvement, compared to standard def, unless it animation or shot in high def already. You wanna' see spectacular, get Blade Runner special edition in Blue Ray...OMG...now that's something to see and WORTH!!!!! my dollars. I've yet to see anything made more than ten years ago come even close to that title. Twister is one of my all time favs that can be watched at least twice a year. I may get this in BR; but, that's an exception. As far as I'm concerned, the movie industry is only porting most of their products in to BR, without much concern about quality, to get more money in their pocket, knowing full well that the end result could be much...much better if they took the time to remaster each and EVERY title to maximize the end result. For what they are charging we fans, this should be standard practice. Customer Rating: Summary: a MUST have!!!! Comment: As my title mention, this movie is a definite must have. I have always been a tornado enthusiast and this is as close to the real thing as you can get. Where I live, we recently experienced the magnitude of a real twister first hand. Although the twister that swept through here was rated an F2 tornado, the damage was extreme (one can only imagine the devastation of the infamous F5 twister in the movie). Rick Customer Rating: Summary: Good Blu-ray rendition, not great Comment: I purchased the blu-ray disk to replace the standard DVD that I've owned for years because the SD version is awful, videowise. This blu-ray transfer is good, though I would not call it great. If you are a fan of this movie, it is worth replacing if you own the SD version. Customer Rating: Summary: fan-bloody-tastic Comment: always loved this movie,but with H.D,puts it in a whole new context,your actually in the the storm,what an experience,powerful. Customer Rating: Summary: Cow ! Comment: Come on. It's Twister. Even people who said it's formulaic and cliché still watch it when nobody else is around. More Reviews
