Comments on: James Bond: Pressure Point Remastered http://fanedit.org/5366/ The wonderful world of movies - edited by fans for fans Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:32:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: gaith1 http://fanedit.org/5366/comment-page-1/#comment-9556 gaith1 Sun, 05 Apr 2009 02:24:09 +0000 http://fanedit.org/?p=5366#comment-9556 The edit: First, let me note that I haven't seen TWINE in a *very* long time, so my scene-to-scene memory is fuzzy. I noticed a slightly rough cut or two, but nothing that would detract from the viewing experience. (Also, the boat-on-land remains.) It felt like the story had been cut a bit too much. I remember about Renard and the bullet, and hated the hologram scene, but first-time viewers would be confused. Also, I had a general feeling of a dearth of emotional depth. How much is due to the edit and how much to the original, I can't say, but, while fun, the result didn't satisfy me on a thematic level. editing: 4.5 of 5, entertainment: 3 of 5 Image quality: I watched the .avi version and thus cannot comment, but I believe the full dvd would look faultless. Audio quality: Seamless except for some audio fluctuation during the boat chase... could have been an .avi issue audio: 4.75 of 5 Overall (not an average): It's honestly been too long since I've seen TWINE to know which is better. I seem to remember one scene in particular in which Bond confronts Elektra about his suspicions, and while it may well have had its faults, I missed it. I enjoyed the movie for most of its duration, but don't think I'll want to see either version again - the story just ain't there. So, a thanks to Tubes for his effort, and 3 out of 5 The edit:
