Twister & Poseidon & Perfect Storm [Blu-ray] [US Import]

The packaging is nice and glossy, all 3 discs are in one case, neatly done, package arrived in mint condition. I watched all these movies in the cinem, i held out buying any of the blu rays, cause honestly i did not feel the individual prices along with the shipping costs justified what i had to pay,When I saw the triple feature pack, I immediately snatched it up, after all it had all 3 movies that i wanted to own. Twister is one of those disaster movies that can be watched over and over again, I watched it in the cinema when it first came out and have watched it several time since then, on satellite tv and dvd, On blu ray its a whole other beast, the film is stunning, detail is amazing, and the Dolby True HD 5.1 soundtrack thunders through the room when in full flow, Rear speakers are constantly active. As i said its a movie that be watched over and over again and on blu ray it stands out even more. The Perfect Storm is based on true events from that freak storm in 1991 which is believed to have brutally pounded the Andrea Gail (the fishing vessel, that is the focal point of the film) and her crew, all where lost to sea, having watched this movie all those years ago, i always wanted to experience it again, i will say this the blu ray is amazing, detail is spot on, but the winner here is the soundtrack, cause once we move into the part of the film where its the Andrea Gail plus her crew vs The Perfect Storm, the Dolby True HD 5.1 soundtrack is at it's peak, every single sound can be heard, and because there is so much movement by the boat and the storm, you constantly get this beautiful 3d like sound effect as the sound rotates back and forth through the front and rear speakers, i Loved it. Poseidon, is the only movie in the collection that carries a DTS HD Master audio 5.1 soundtrack, i am a big fan of DTS HD, though here it feels restrained, its brilliant when the ship gets hit by the rouge wave and then through various points in the film, but honestly it does feel toned down, don't get me wrong, its still a wonderful soundtrack, though it feels a like during the sound mixing they kept its capabilities caged most of the time. Picture detail is spot and very clean, being the newest movie of the two this is expected. This triple feature is a bargain.

1 star for not being able to spell 'sought after' properly

I bought this for TWISTER, the price is almost the same as a stand-alone disc for that movie. TWISTER looks great, but so do the other two movies in this set. I had seen all three and hadn't liked THE PERFECT STORM when it was released. But wow have I changed my mind. The second half of that movie is fantastic. Very thrilling and emotionally powerful. POSEIDON is about equal to the famous early 70s movie. Special effects are better, the cast is comparable. Overall, this is great value for the money

Exelentes películas clásicas y a un bajo precio todo en exelentes condiciones

All three were excellent movies, great action and story line and the special effects were icing on the cake. If want these buy the blu ray over the dvd version. P.S. Great service from seller and Amazon as usual.

excelnte pelicula, lastima que no esta en THX como estaba originalmente el VHS, pero la calidad de imagen y aun el sonido dolby esta excelente, pero en THX es otra onda.

great shipping speed! love these movies! used to watch them over and over again on VHS. Now I have a copy to add to my dvd collection!
