Is the cell any good of a movie and it it worth buying on dvd?

[unknownfreak31]

What extras does it have and is it worth buying it?

THE CELL was good but I don't know about the DVD...

The Cell from New Line's Platinum series is a good DVD. The flick should be viewed in widescreen DVD format to gawk at all the images, sets, lighting, and costumes. If you can get past the fact the story isn't to original it is a pretty good flick. The menu is animated and it contains some deleted scenes, one that concerns the woman trapped in the water filled cell as she struggles more to breathe while it fills up. It was worth buying for me. It also has commentary by the director Tarsem Singh, but I haven't gotten around to listening to that yet.

no way, i borrowed the cell dvd from my brother, and it doesnt really have that much interesting stuff on it. and the movie sucked too.

The movie's good,and here are the extras:

Director Commentary,Production team commentary,8-10 deleted scenes with director commentary,documentary with people reflecting on Tarsem's work,6 special effects vignettes(the hoist,Edward's world,first entry,second entry,Novak's entry,Catherine's world)with 3 multiple angles,isolated score,teaser and full trailer,filmographies of cast and crewm,empathy test,brain map,and a computer game trailer. It's a great DVD. I wonder why Drew didn't review it?

Oh yeah,the picture and audio is great.

Honestly, I would not even bother with watching The Cell ever again. It is a ridiculously bad movie. Who cares what kind of extras it has. But hey, why don't you just rent it and check it out.

I have to agree with someguy, its a good movie and a good dvd, with the interesting features about the Brain i really enjoyed the DVD.

by the mixed reactions of the fellow shmoes, it looks like you should rent it first to see if you like the film. i thought the movie was alittle plain in story telling, but the visuals were great. pretty good movie along with a good dvd.

In my opinion the film is so-so (plot too reminiscent of an old flick called Dreamscape for my liking, a much better film in terms of story). I enjoyed it but I'm not bothered about watching it again. The extras were good though (I rented it).

I thought the film was OK, and was entertained by the extras, so it follows that if you really like the film then I think you'll really like all the extras.
