Worth the money and time to watch! Thumbs up!
The Movie: 9/10
Being a SciFi nut, I enjoyed the storytelling this movie portrayed. Although borrowing from many years of SciFi, Deja Vu does quite well in making the viewer guess what will be shown on screen next. This is not to say that there is new SciFi material in the film, it borrows much from other films. The strong point of Deja Vu is how it all blends together seemlessly with one focus never being overdone.
Denzel's performance is on par with other movies he's starred in. Consistant, good, but nothing spectacular. Val Kilmer has shown that he's improved since Top Gun (not to mention putting on some weight) and plays great support. Bruce Greenwood also plays a consistant role, and it's unfortunate his screentime is breif.
The story does have a few plot holes, but nothing overboard that ruins the entire experience. We do not know Denzel's character history with the Oaklahoma City Bombings, or who was called in the body bag at the beginning. Nor do we know why he even became interested in Paula Patton's character. Instead we as the audience is left to draw these conclusions by various hints dropped in different scenes.
Video: 10/10
Try as I might, I could not find anything wrong with this transfer. Granted, this is a above and beyond VC-1 encode, often defing the conventional wisdom of less bits is more for VC-1. It even defies the rival HD-DVD spec by consistantly going above the max bitrate for that format and reaches for the max that BR itself offers. It is very impressive quality wise, as this is what we should come to expect from high def. The transfer is so clear, that on closeups of Denzel you could quite possibly count every skin pore he has.
The film itself has a darker/gold cast that is consistant throughout the entire film. Colors are vibrant and extremely consistant, although some of the higher greens and reds are muted intentionally. The colors reminded me a lot of Invincible, using the same 'gold' overlay. Shadows and blacks are excellent, never looking crushed and showing dimension. Presence of film grain is clear-- but never distracting. Instead the film grian actually adds to the experience, never taking the focus off the movie itself. If this is a product of the high bit encode, I say give us more.
Audio: 9/10
The 5.1 PCM soundtrack is overall very excellent. I only noticed a few scenes in which it suffered from clipping, but only during explosions. This might have actually been a product of the master material, but it is present and generally unnoticable during 99% of the film. All 5.1 channels are used to some extent, but not very active for this day and age. The surround channels are mainly used for ambient music.
Extras: 5/10
The Survellience window provided for the disc is nicely put together -- but nothing above the ordinary. It seems to be a making of combined with the director's commentary, all while seemlessly blended into to the actual film itself. The deleted scenes are also standard for a DVD and makes an appearance on the BR as well.
Overall: 9/10
If you apprechiate and enjoy Denzel as an actor, this movie is a rental if not outright buy. The story is suspenseful and will always keep you guessing what will happen next (at least until the end). If one needs a transfer for potential demo material for AQ and PQ, this is also one to pick up and show what film can look line on today's technology. |

Excellent movie
Good movie with strange turn of events. Highly entertaining and worth buying.
This VC-1 presentation is what all VC-1 titles should look like. Warner could pick up some pointers from Buena Vista ! Vibrant colors, deep blacks, sharp and very little to no noise makes this a stunning transfer. The 5.1 PCM track delivers clear dialogue and excellent use of surrounds.
Paula Patton in 1080p looks absolutely stunning ! Though she does look like Halle Barry a bit. |

Deja BLU (as in great Hi-def glory!!)
First thing... I do not like Denzel as an actor. I think he is overrated and plays the same character all the time. However, this movie was very refreshing. Filled with action and suspense. The only thing I can think of is the only quote from a critic that was used was from a critic from "Maxim". Nevertheless, PQ is amazing. Very sharp. Filmed in the overexposed tradition by Tony Scott. Audio simply brilliant (Ferry scene will blow you away). The only question now.... When is Disney going to release "Man on Fire"? |

Keeps you on the edge of your seat!
Got one of the last two BD copies at Best Buy last night and was glad I was able to find one after watching it. Great movie that is very suspenseful. Reminded me of a present day Minority Report. Very well done. VC-1 codec shines and the audio is amazing. |

Great Movie, Interesting Concept
I had no idea what this movie was about when I bought it, it was 24.99 at Target and had Denzel in it...Ever since Man On Fire, I've been a fan! When I watched it I was not disappointed, at all! Being a Physics major in college...I also really liked the concept. I highly recommend this movie! |

An Excellent Blu Ray benchmark
This is an example of what the most basic Blu Ray titles should be. Sure this movie didn't have tons of extras, but the window mode thing looked fluid and you would think it was part of the movie. There was no pause during the switch between them. Plus, Tony Scott movies always look awesome (waiting to buy Man on Fire). The VC-1 video bitrate often pegged 50 mbits; take that other inferior format! Even if you have issues with inaccurate hollywood physics explanations, this is still a fun movie to watch. |

This movie was made for BD....I wish they hadcreated BD-3D for this...
The video quality was outstanding and they were showing off with the compressed time - camera scenes....
the audio was superb...I liked the storyline, typical denzel flick...which means it's very good...
overall a 9.....and here's to the day they invent BD-3D... |

Worth a Rent
Not a bad movie. Although its easy to guess the story line and how it will end. Nice visual content but I agree with others that the audio should have been True-HD. |

outstanding picture, strange movie
I've gotta be honest...
I went into this expecting great things, but the premise and the plot are just overly absurd. the action was outstanding, and the quality of the picture is one of the best, but i couldn't get past the idea the movie was based on...i won't spoil the plot for you, but it is strange even for 'time-traveling' |

Deja Vu... One of the best I've seen in a while...
Awesome flick... Keeps you guessing all the way through!
The 'Time Machine' concept was very cool.
The 'You Can Save Her' message reminds me of 'Momento' a tad... |
