UNSTOPPABLE -(Denzel Washington & Chris Pine) both were great in this thrilling pack movie on a runaway malfunction cargo train that both were trying their best to halt it from crashing into a small town, PQ & SQ were great also  ;)

Talaga bro? Where did you buy it? Planning to get it pa naman. I heard that the subsonics for this movie are great reference materials.
I can stop speaking but I cannot so easily silence my thoughts...

Yes, sound is reference quality.  LFE is very good.

You might not like the PQ if you don't like a stylized look.  Color looks like it was filtered for brown and gray.  Film grain is very heavy.  Many bright scenes have overblown whites. 

But if you're looking for faithful reproduction of Janusz Kaminski's cinematography, I say the PQ is very good.  Color looks like it accurately represents the original source; grain is intact and natural, with no signs of DNR; no signs of edge enhancement either.

Yep yep grain is very heavy & the whitness is very glaring to the eyes, I guess they did that on purpose to make it look like nostalgic to the original film w/c I think was in the 60's, low freq was great alright except for the time when the aliens or the TRI-PODS blow their AIR-HORN  >:( sounds was very annoying ;D But overall I like the story, creepy in the sense feeling the world is coming to an end ;)

Superbad   A teenage comedy cult movie in the mold of Porky's, Risky Business, Losin' It.  Totally insane, lough out loud movie with lots of outrageous stuff.  I won't be surprised if my 10 year old kid will one day ask me if I have a copy of Superbad!  PQ and SQ are good and lots of fun extras in this 2 disc BD.  A keeper for me with plenty of rewatch value.

Knight and Day  Pretty decent action movie of Cruise and Cameron.  I thought the plot was thin but as the movie unfolded, I realized this is a dumb, popcorn flick so I just enjoyed the ride.  Some cool action here and there but no WOW experience for me.  If you've seen Cruise in M.I., then you'll get pretty much the same treat.  PQ is very good, as expected in a new action flick.  Only downside in HD is you see how Cruise and Cameron have aged ;D And SQ shines!  Extras are, well, in HD so I liked it.  Maybe not one of Cruise's top films but pwede na rin itabi sa collection ko.

Resident Evil Afterlife

Better than the previous RE ( Extinction ).  Alice is back in her usual kick ass form.  I'd say the action here kicks a few notches up than Extinction. Prisonbreak star Wentworth's opening line :  " I can get you out of here..."  Some kind of joke?  Ha ha.  Great PQ and SQ, as expected.

The Next 3 Days- Russell Crowe, a school teacher carefully planning to rescue his wife in prison for she was convicted a jail term of life imprisonment on a crime she was wrongly accused. PQ was great, SQ was ok on the mids & highs, lows were quite limited ;)

Tropa De Elite 2 2010

The story is even dirtier than the first - it reminded me of the Philippines unfortunately.  The dialogue is even faster than the first - so much so that the English subs were simplified to help the non-Portuegese speaking viewer in reading.

Image quality is very much "foreign-looking" as expected, sound quality is clear although the only audio I could understand was the sound of guns.  As in the 1st, a few instances of Brazilian party scene in the slums with loud samba music was very inviting on the hips. ;D

Very nice movie indeed.
