Default 'Erin Brockovich' - High-Def Digest review

Just posted Peter's review of 'Erin Brockovich.' He says this is the kind of catalog release that the studios should be putting out on high-def on a regular basis -- it looks great, sounds about as good as it could and has an enjoyable (if somewhat slim) supplements package.

Full review here:

It is a good flick even if you are not a chick. I will get it for my "wife". Plus it is the last time (in my opinion) that Julia Roberts looked really HOT.

good movie, good story but i dont think it is worth buying on hd dvd unless you are a big fan of julia roberts. From what i remember she has a neck strap/whip lash holder on almost half of the movie.

Universal can releaase good catalogue titles.
Whenever this happens people that complain about Universal on the smackdown forum all the time tend to dissapear.

great great news. was really hoping they had done this film right. saw some dvd site/entertainment site today had an article saying this week was "total crap" for both formats, and I was like sure buddy. "Erin" only won a fucking oscar for Roberts and was universally hailed as a "great" film. I just wanted to beat this dude down for stupidity.
