Short Circuit [Blu-ray] Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great as a kid, still is.
Comment: I remember watching this growing up. It is a funny movie with witty comments as well as nerd jokes. Also, not to mention "robots do not feel things, they run programs", well clearly not Johnny 5.

I bought this to show my wife where they came up with the design for WallE (the face) and she thought the movie was going to be stupid but she loved it to and has watched it several times since we got it 2 weeks ago.

Summary: Short Circuit
Comment: This is a good movie, however, I expected more from a bluray version. Film quality is bad - it does not seem to have been post-processed at all to improve the image quality beyond the original film. Poor analog to digital transfer. If you own a DVD or even VCR version of this movie, don't bother repurchasing it.

Summary: When AI was new...
Comment: In the late 80's we thought Robots were the answer.In the 2000's
they are replacing grocery checkers, and still as stupid as ever?
Five never was alive, except in the movies.
But it makes a good story. Now they are making war robots
that are getting better at killing.
There are a Mac based robots traveling around Mars, too.
I like the movie, now, as I did the first time I saw it,
but I know that an 386 level just couldn't be intelligent!
A new 4 ghz Intel with multiprocessors hasn't a chance either,
but the 7000 networked Cern processors are much closer,
but no AI, yet....

Summary: Blu Ray - good quality
Comment: I bought the blu ray format and I must say that eventhough this movie was made more than 20 years ago, the blu ray produced higher resolution video. What a deal, for less than 12 bucks, my family and I got to watch this old movie in high def.

Summary: Horrible excuse for a hi-def picture
Comment: First of all, THIS is supposed to be a PG rated film? I wouldn't be surprised if any kids that saw this film picked up a few cuss words they had not been exposed to before. The movie itself is not bad at all. I remember seeing it as a child and loving it, but the picture is just horrible. 1080i not 1080p and there's lots of distortion and artifacts throughout the entirety of the flick. It was like watching a VHS tape on my 1080p flat screen. The film is worth watching. Its a very touching story. But get the DVD. This Blu-ray is very poorly produced.
