I liked this movie in the theater.

So if you wanna be spoon-fed the movie plot you aren’t gonna like this movie, I actually think its Fox’s fault for interrupting with what the director wanted, in fact this “raw and uncut” version isn’t even the directors cut because the director said he never even was allowed to film the scenes he wanted, making this I guess a studio exec cut?

If you discuss the movie afterward you can piece it together rather well, sure there’s a hole or two in the plot but it seemed to make very good sense when it was all said and done. Long story short for people who still don’t get it, the girl was a bio-engineered human designed to give birth “immaculately” to 2 children, who would function as the centerpiece for the crazy woman’s religion legitimizing it while making her rich, then the bio-engineer couldn’t go through with it because he saw the girl as his daughter and the women for the crazy zealot she was and interfered with the plans. The rest you can easily figure out.

If you saw this movie in the theater then this BD version will have some nice extra scenes cut in, >>>BUT<<< at the cost of other scenes that I personally liked and cannot fathom why are not still in this “uncut” version. For example the last chase scene, just action for the sake of it but dude, you filmed it and it was good, put it in the uncut version, and at the end in the theater you see the children (one white, one black), you see Toorop caring for them, his home restored, etc, this is completely cut from the BD version of the movie and not even on the disc as a deleted scene, WTF! This was a deal breaker for me, even the cheapest DVD version has the uncut and theatrical version.

I was really disappointed in Fox for this BD because of that, on the other hand I liked the story, I liked the acting, I liked the picture quality, on blu it was friggin amazing, but I kinda say F Fox for screwing with this movie, worth a rent or netflix but I wont support Fox on this BD, maybe a special edition in the future for Vin Diesel’s sake but not this, not right now.

BTW, can I get a 60″ HDTV for under $50?

LOL, sorry, man… But believe me, I was due. My last TV was over 10 years old and I *do* run a movie/TV site after all.

Actually got a screamin’ deal on it or I wouldn’t have bought it. It’s a Sony and I think I got it for under $1,500.

Color me jealous.

Yeah, that ending definitely left me with the same reaction.

The movie ended and we were like ‘uhhhh, what was the point?’

Garbage IMO
