 "Quite a surprise" 2009-08-18
By 1080p (Chicago, IL)
Despite the ridiculous plot (I would go in detail, but no spoiling here!), I feel that the writing itself was very good. There were lots of amazing quotes you can learn in this movie, and was somewhat entertaining despite the omission of romance which most movies insert to keep people engaged. I know that Clive Owen is always the heroic bad ass void of emotions, but he plays it so well!



My favorite quote "The hardest thing to learn in life is knowing which bridge to cross and which to burn....I'm the one you burn"

 "Dull and lifeless, and not even that original." 2009-08-05
By GB Brandenburg (Truckee, CA)
There are so many things wrong with this movie that it is hard to know where to begin.



Clive Owen plays the same character, in the same trenchcoat, that he has been playing for some time now, and much better than here. His 'smoldering' rage barely offsets Naomi Watts emotionally passive affect through 3/4 of the movie.



The international intrigue of the movie is like a boilerplate script that we have all essentially seen over and over again in the last 8 years.



The directing is horrible. Emotionally detached, though with the intent of drawing us into these international settings, there is no gravitas of any real character development throughout the environments until the very end, and then it is still washed out through a waste of good actors.







If you want a great international intrigue movie, then rent Casino Royale, one of the greatest movies ever made, and then watch all three Bourne movies.



If you want someone's washed out and limp homage to those movies, then watch this one.

 "Dull and lifeless, but original" 2009-07-15
By xTRIGGER092x (Kentucky)
I really wanted to like this film, I really did. However, there's really no saving grace for this film besides Clive Owen's acting, great cinematography, an original plot, and an outstanding shootout sequence. I have never seen a film so devoid of life. There is no humor, barely any action, and the dialogue is overly complex, bland, and lifeless. I wasn't expecting a shoot-em-up thriller like Taken or even the 007 films, but I was expecting a smart yet entertaining thriller. 'The International' does manage to be smart, but TOO smart, to the point where it is just not an enjoyable film. However, if you enjoy a very intelligent political thriller with much of the plot advancing through dialogue, then 'The International' may be your type of movie.



On a side note, the picture and audio quality is great. Not the best, but very impressive.

 "Spectacular Spy Thriller" 2009-07-12
By The Movie Man (Maywood, New Jersey USA)
"The International" is a swift-paced thriller with a great scene in a famous New York City building. Interpol agent Louis Salinger (Clive Owen) and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) are investigating an international bank, headquartered in Luxembourg, that is involved in a catalogue of illegal activities ranging from money laundering and arms trading to the backing of coups in unstable third-world countries. Anyone who knows too much about the bank's operations and any law enforcement officer who gets close to digging up proof of the bank's clandestine activities are quickly eliminated by the bank's highly trained, lethal hit team.

A highlight of the movie is a dazzlingly filmed shoot-out in Manhattan's Guggenheim Museum, which is staged spectacularly. A key meeting at a climactic point in the film is to take place at the museum, and Salinger and his New York team are about to close in when all hell breaks loose and the art repository turns into a shooting gallery, with good guys, bad guys, and unknown guys with automatic weapons running up and down the museum's famous ramps as art patrons cringe, bullets fly, art is defaced, and blood splatters. This is one of the best action sequences I've seen in a movie in many a moon.

Blu-ray extras include deleted scenes, a making-of featurette, another featurette explaining how the Guggenheim sequence was planned and filmed, and director commentary. A digital copy of the movie is included with the Blu-ray edition.

 "Huge build-up to a lot of nothing" 2009-07-08
By Richard C. Drew (Oak Lawn, IL USA)
Talk about a huge disappointment. After the firefight at the Guggenheim and the whole lecture on working outside the system and collateral damage, one would expect a big ending. Nope. Big nothing.



But since it was BluRay, it was a high-quality disappointment.

 "Great Movie" 2009-08-08
By L. White
Sword of the Stranger is an action movie. The movie takes itself seriously. And despite this being the directors first movie, the attention to detail with the environment prevents it from feeling like a static world. The very limited amount of humor present helps to keep the mood right for the film, but could turn some away. The level of gore is high at times, but not so bad you can't look.

Like most action films, there is a story. And like most action films it isn't the most memorible story. However, the animation quality and the music are great. The Japanese voice actors do an excellent job. Some fan favorites from live-action were casted for major roles. And the young boy that did the voice for the youngest character is spot on. Despite the story not grabbing me like other movies recently, there is a point and there is some character development. The treatment of the Chinese forces present in the film is not in the best light (as expected with Japan). But, interestingly the characteristics that the Japanese characters show are not any better.

Even though I have high praise for this movie, it simply doesn't have much more to offer on blu-ray than with DVD. The picture quality is not vastly improved. It doesn't look bad, it just doesn't look much better than on DVD. That is the only reason I have given this 4/5 stars and not 5/5.

 "Sword of the Stranger - Gotta see it." 2009-08-04
By Rath Dragonhunter (Las Animas, CO. USA)
There's not much I can add to the already great reviews. I will say that there is no sexual content. There is a brief nude scene but not much is shown. I'll also add that young children should not watch this only because there is a lot of blood, limbs cut off and one scene of torcher. But really this is an absolutly spectacular movie. It's well worth the money, good story line and for a change, the story does end quite decently, it doesn't just let you hang there wondering what the hell happened or will happen. Hope this very short review was helpful. For another sectacular anime series that's well done and worth seeing check out Samurai 7.Samurai 7: Box Set (Viridian Collection)

 "The best anime this year?......Hmmm." 2009-07-31
By E. A. Hurst (From Beyond)
"Sword of the stranger" has a very real feel to it unlike many other Anime or rather 'toons' out there - for starters the characters are likable and very believable whereas anime such as Ninja Scroll centered on the mythological demons, and creatures genre. The animation is raw (meaning the background) the character development is excellent, be that as it may I found the Designs a little off i.e. one of the samurai's arms were to long, and "No-Name" barely had any muscle tone you figure if one is a samurai and carries a sword everywhere he's going to look like he's at least halfway healthy) but i will let that slide because that's the style "Unique" would be the word for this movie, it almost has a Disney-anime-lone wolf and cub hybrid feel to it) and here's to hoping they make a sequel to this, or something like this in the future - I really did not know what to make of this movie at first but after watching for awhile i really started to get into the characters. Intense action (gory at the beginning)believable drama, awesome backdrops and the fight at the end has to be seen to be believed, not saying it is the best sword fight scene in all anime but it is up there. Easily the best Anime out this year no contest. Buy IT.

 "Boring!" 2009-08-23
By Blonde Mermaid
Okay, I had very high hopes for this movie. The previews made it look funny and great, boy were they wrong! First off, the intro may seem actiony.... if you're a 5 year old. We all know that this action sequence is part of the tv show, we know that because in the trailer it said that he was a tv dog. The beginning sequence just seemed like it dragged on and on. When he finnaly gets out into the real world, he meets a cat named Mittens and a hampster named Rhino (Who is the only humor in the movie). It just seems like this drags on and on. It was boring in every single way! My parents were watching this with me, and we kept looking at each other thinking "Um, when is it going to get good?". Finally, we get a good REAL action sequence where Bolt saves Penny from a fire. This is the only part of the movie that was touching and had me crying. After that, the ending just showed how pathetic the TV studio was (They tried to do a new epi of the Bolt TV show with a new dog and girl. Epic fail btw) And the cat and hampster end up getting adopted by Penny which was sweet even though you can see it coming a mile away.



What happened to you Disney? You had great films, and now this. This film was as boring as Night at the Museum, and what's worse, they had to cast freakin Miley Cyrus to play Penny, not only that but they use some of her songs! UGH! Also, they stole the plot, from one of their own movies! They stole the TV Dog going into the real world plot from 101 Dalmations 2: Patch's London Adventure (Great Movie). Honestly, stealing your own plots, making boring movies, creating Hannah Montana?! Walt is probably rolling in his grave.



Oh, but it gets better! In the mini movie, Super Rhino, Rhino the Hampster has a dream that he now has super powers and has to save Penny and Bolt. It got a couple snickers out of me, but the end is a WTF moment. After he saves Penny and Bolt, Rhino takes an elevator the leads to a stage where he starts singing "The Best of Both Worlds" by freakin Hannah Montana! WTF?! Disney, why the heck are you advertising your lame sitcoms during a mini movie! I just can not get over that!



I'm sorry Disney, but only a couple snickers thanks to a hampster, and one touching moment out of 130 minutes is not going to cut it. If you want a fun, funny, and actiony family flick, go see Monsters Vs Aliens.



Please do not rent or buy this movie. I rented it and I wished I had that 7 dollars back after half an hour into the movie. Disney, you can do better!

 "Dynamite Dog Tale!" 2009-08-19
By Loyd E. Eskildson (Phoenix, AZ.)
This is a Disney animated dog tale that has the voices of John Travolta (Bolt), Miley Cyrus (Penny), Susie Essman (Mittens), Mark Walton (Rhino) and Chloe Moretz.



A puppy is adopted by a child star by the name of Penny. She evidently went to the pet shop with the casting director for a TV show about super-dog hero Bolt.



Penny and Bolt make a great duo and the TV Show is a hit. We soon realize that Bolt is delusional about what super feats he can do. He is kept isolated and brought out of his star trailer only when they need to shoot scenes for a show. He is a great actor because he believes everything he does is real, including fantastic feats and dog power - down to an amazing bark that shakes or blows away everything around him. He does not realize it is all special effects. In his mind, he is "Bolt - the Super Hero Dog".



The story gets interesting when Bolt escapes into the real world. Bolt escapes his trailer chasing movie cats - and somehow ends up in a packing box and arrives on the East Coast. A cross country adventure starts with Mittens the homeless cat and Rhino the Hamster that loves TV shows. They have a wonderful adventure when they help Bolt come back to his owner and co-star Penny.



It is a fun filled story and the characters and animation are perfect.

 "Good see-once movie" 2009-08-18
By Darren (San Antonio, TX)
Aimed at a more juvenile audience. Plot is rather simple. Kind of prophecy-fulfulling by comparing to an earlier "book" in the story about Silver Knight Gothic told to the heroes and so becomes self fulfilling.

Great voice acting, Stunning graphics. But we're never given much of an explanation for how the world came to be like World of Warcraft's Outland and why the dragon looks like something straight out of Northrend.

 "Think about this..." 2009-08-28
By Mark Hackney (South Africa)
I usually hate it when people write something that isn't a review in the review section, but I'll make an exeption for this. Think about this, in the commentary for The Fellowship of The Ring, Peter Jackson comments on the fact that he would like to, at some stage, redo the Gollum shots in that film to make him line up with the design in the other to films, as the design changed for the other two movies. What if this the reason for the extended edition blu-ray delay? This is pure speculation, but what if they are redoing the Gollum shots, so he'll match the "new and improved version" and perhaps even the design they using in "The Hobbit" for the prologue, and other effects shots they weren't happy with for the blu-ray release? That would shut everyone up. Or at least some of you.



And to everyone saying it's just about greed, I didn't here anyone saying that when the extended cuts where released several months after the theatrical cuts on DVD, how is this any differnt? It's easy, if you don't want it, don't buy it. No ones holding a gun to your head. We all know the extended cuts will eventually make it to blu-ray, so why insult these amazing films by giving them a poor score because you can't just be patient?

By Gustavo Aquino (Brasil)
This is an INCREDIBLE Blu-ray.



For mere 15 dollars, you get an amazing movie documenting the latest tour of the band, and more important, documenting the true love that this band has from its fanbase, specially here in South America. This movie is fun, exciting and endearing!



Besides the documentary, there are also 16 full songs, which are shown for one or two minutes during the movie but are available full on a separate part of the disc. On the DVD edition you have to change discs (1 for the movie and 1 for the concert) but on Blu-ray it is all in one single disc, with GREAT picture and GREAT audio qualities. Iron Maiden has many live DVDs and discs, but in my opinion this beats them all, since the quality is so high and the set-list is just PERFECT (16 of theyr best tracks from earlier days).



As a Brazilian and an Iron Maiden fanatic (I attented 2 of the 16 concerts shown on this disc) this has been the purchase of the year. Even if you are not such a hardcore Maiden fan, it is still worth it just to add to your Blu-ray collection, since image and sound are really sharp and the band is at its best, (even though they are way over their 50's). GET IT NOW!!!

By harvey dickwaller (toledo ohio)
Dont get me wrong the concert performance is great for the most part. I noticed during several songs bruces vocals just lacked authority. I saw them in concert in 85 and it was the same thing the vocal mixing could have been turned up a notch or so. I didnt care much for the footage of the band off stage, it just didnt seem relavent. The only thing that is totally cool is Bruce piloting that 757, it really disproves the notion that metal bangers are drug users. the highlight of the concert for me was Rime of the Ancient Mariner, the band just seemed really tight.

id recomend this blu ray to anyone just note that bruces vocals are weak compared to the studio versions
