It's a film I didn't really appreciate when I was younger, but since getting the blu-ray I've watched it repeatedly, marvelling at the artistry of the backgrounds and character animations. (I hate to be "that guy", but...you are aware that Bambi was originally photographed in 35mm, which has <i>more</i> detail than can be resolved by blu-ray - after all, it was designed to be projected onto full-sized cinema screens? In fact, for the restoration Disney scanned in the original negatives at 4K resolution, which is roughly twice blu-ray resolution. The point I'm trying to make is that these old films were sort-of shot in HD, even though they weren't shot digitally. Sorry, I guess I just outed myself as a massive nerd there :-B.) Hi,

I finally watched this flick about a month ago after several years of getting bewildered looks and comments when I said I hadn't seen it. Needless to say, I was floored and have watched it twice since! Just found a cool little tidbit about the Boondock franchise. Apparently, there's also a band called "Boondock Saints". Well, their drummer, jimi fat hand jackson had to have a brain operation and so while filming BS2, bullet shell casings used in the movie were donated to raise money for the operation. That might not be exactly accurate, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that was one of the coolest things I've ever heard about. Very nice summary.

I loved the first one but this one just annoyed me. I found it to be more shallow, more action-centric, and weakly written. The Regina Spektor song that ends the film made it worse. But I found it impossible to root for Aslan when he abandons his people to be conquered and slaughtered into near extinction. He had the power to save them, but came up with lame excuses as to why he didn’t.

The characters are life-size replicas of the monsters in the book, so it makes more sense. Spike Jonze really expanded the book which meant so much to me as a kid, and added his own flair. This is my favorite movie of the last few years - it just resonated with me. Good review Cidtalk.

Three, the disaster scenes were quite realistic, something I had not anticipated. That's as close as I ever want to get to disasters like that. Nice review. I'd give it a 6/10 as well. I agree with you that the plot was really lacking at times. But what kept me in engaged in this movie were a couple of things. One, the mystery of it all–even though you’ve seen an end-of-the-world movie a dozen times before, you’re still kind of curious to know what’s going to happen. Two, the big ideas. Three, the disaster scenes were quite realistic, something I had not anticipated. That’s as close as I ever want to get to disasters like that. Nice review. I’d give it a 6/10 as well.

I just watched the movie && the ending really broke my heart. I honestly felt that once he crossed the fence that he was not going to return to his family. It was just so sad though. Seeing his innocence in the movie and how blind he was to what was happening, how he thought that they had a cafe and played games at the camp after sneaking a peak at the soldiers film... it was so sad. The reality was so sad. Good movie, but like you said, very hard to watch the ending. Very well written. I just watched the movie && the ending really broke my heart.
