The more I look at this steel design, the more I want to look away. It's truly atrocious.

I'm definitely cultivating an ugly stack on my shelf that's been growing steadily in the last 6 months.

HD movie source didn't like it. But many question their past judgement. Though he did turn out right about the Kill Bills.

I also heard the Kill Bills weren't up to much... Not heard anything on Panic Room yet though, so will be interested to see what people are thinking.

Oof! Panic Room's picture quality getting a kicking here:

The fact that a film about a panic room is 152 min long is the biggest kick I felt from the entire video. The movie is virtually a chamber piece and I don't remember it being exactly "talky" so how did they manage to fill that runtime? I also can't remember if the protracted length accompanied by a sparse plotline felt interminable or not as I haven't seen it in roughly ten years.

1:52 = 112 minutes.

1:52 = 112 minutes.

Lol I just finished up fact checking the runtime on google because I couldn't accept the video's alleged runtime and was going to post an addendum to my previous comment. Still, in my humble opinion, whoever edited the video did a clunky job of editing that part together and left it susceptible to misinterpretation. Anyway, glad that's settled.

Too bad the steelbook is the only option. Sony should release the slipcase as well.
