Casshern. R2 UK Details. Released April 25th.
The big thing you spot when you first look at the cover - it's the same as all the other covers. Small differences though, including the gold text "Special Edition" and then the killer of all killers, a review quote from Paul Ross. Noooooooo!
For those not in the UK, Paul Ross is the lowest of the low in terms of TV personalities and film critics. I am actually surprised he liked the film, then again a lot of people say this movies rubbish (not me). So, have Momentum Asia lost confidence in Casshern?, or do they genuinely think it's worth putting that quote on and getting people to buy into something they might know nothing or little about?
You can see the Artwork and the specs (deleted scenes, 13 minutes of extra footage, trailers (!), plus cast & crew interviews) at DVDTimes.co.uk. Buy the R3 HK Disc.

Oh dear,
I agree, Paul Ross is a muppet and his opinion should not be taken seriously on anything. I really liked Casshern, visually its amazing, go for the R3, its in HD format and looks the shit.

Does Paul Ross think everything is great? I cant say I remember him reviewing a film and saying it was bad. Hes only got the job due to his brother.
Is the Ultimate 3dvd version of Casshern worth it? Are the extras subtitled? Are the extras actually any good?

Momentum Asia eh???
I just actually got hold of casshern, I'm hoping for the best...the cgi enviroments look damn impressive...

Hey Chris, what do you mean it's in HD format? Do you mean it can be played on WMV-HD players? Or do you mean that it's been transferred straight from HD?

To be fair to Paul Ross.... someones gotta put bread on the table...
HD..maybe chris means Casshern was shot on High Definition digital video??? As opposed to 35mm.

Dan,
High Definition digital video (HD), flyboy is correct, I watched it on a 32 inch phillips pixel plus tele and it looks the business.

But that doesnt change the fact that Paul Ross is a gimp!! If you go to your local video store you will see a lot of kack films sporting a big Paul Ross quote across the top, usually saying, 'fantastic', 'amazing', if so, STAY AWAY!!!

Just watched it.... I know Paul Ross didn't see this film through to the end... ;)
I loved it tho
