Default 'Frost/Nixon' - High-Def Digest Review

Our review of 'Frost/Nixon' has been posted. This is a great movie that shows just how well Blu-ray can showcase less flashy cinematic material. This Blu-ray features exceptional video, audio, and supplements. Highly recommended.

Full review here:

Good, solid review.

With scores like those I'll definitely have to check this disc (and film - I missed it on theatrical release) out.

PS - The detailing and layout of the supplements is much improved. Very extensive.... which I like.

Good to see a review that doesn't have some stupid unfounded bias against Howard. I'm looking forward to this.

Great review, by the way.

Agreed...with scores this high, how can I not blind buy this one. I have heard nothing but praise for this flick so I am going to have to check this one out soon.

Are you kidding? He totally has a bias for Ron Howard! I mean, he even said that he liked the movie, and everybody knows that disc reviewers shouldn't be allowed to form an opinion about anything, right? How unprofessional!

Anyway, for The DaVinci Code alone, Ron Howard deserves all the vitriol he ever receives. There's nothing he can ever do in his future career that will make up for that.

Josh,

I agree with you about The Da Vinci Code - horrible movie. But I gotta say, The Missing beats it by a mile. Way, way worse!

I may be in the minority, but I loved A Beautiful Mind -- but then again, I'm a complete and utter sentimental sap!!
