    I've rewatched the first one on 4K a good bit lately @Fire_and_Ice_Returns, it looks fantastic and it's such a great movie.

    The transfer is great highlights De Palma's brilliant direction even more, its been a while since I watched the first film Tom looks young. I decided to buy the Steelbooks in 4K for every film in the series, one box set I was looking at I was not keen on which made my mind up.

    The Hands of Orlac (1924). A bit too ponderous at times, but it wins one over as Conrad Veidt is terrific in the title role and his character is so tormented, one feels for him and becomes invested in him. Especially in that scene when he goes to the police to explain everything, at risk of being considered crazy.

    Mission impossible 3

    Hadn’t seen this one before, how is this not the best mission impossible film, I thought it was so entertaining and exciting, yet it seems to be pretty low key amongst people who talk about MI( usually they hail MI 4 as the best one)

    Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018)
    Extremely overrated.

    It's so boring and predictable. 6/10

    Great to read this. I just purchased the 4K on Ebay and already have RN & GP. Just Fallout to go and I'll have all of the ones I want in the enhanced remastered format.

    This isn't normally my kind of fare, but I may check it out on account of Sandgren's rumoured involvement on B25.

    It's certainly not bad and it arguably has the best villain in PSH. I personally find it lacks flair in comparison to the later entries and that's why I prefer those. I also am not too keen on the angst.

    Not just overrated but extremely?

    There is an element of predictability certainly, but I felt the execution made up for that.

    I think the ending is so predictable,the usual disarm the bombs,Tom escaping from the helicopter etc.

    Sorry about the spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it.

    The Kingsman films kick fallouts ass.

    The jack reacher films were better.

    So was The Man from U.N.C.L.E

    Thanks for the clarification. Yes, I suppose there is quite a bit of deja vu in it and it does evoke a lot of prior great films (Cliffhanger comes to mind with the finale).

    @bondjames I was going to buy one M: I Steelbook a month though just bought them all as was worried they may all be sold. I found the limited edition Steelbook's for £12 each. I am off work next week when the rest should arrive so will have a M: I day lol
    That's a great price for Steelbooks @Fire_and_Ice_Returns. Enjoy.

    I'm hoping to pick up Fallout a bit cheaper on Ebay over the next few weeks (prices tend to fall after the initial euphoria dies down) and then will be doing a full MI-athon myself.

    I bought them via ebay from this retailer...

    https://www.zoom.co.uk/product/mission_impossible_3_limited_edition_steelbook_4k_ultra_hd_and_blu_ray_uhd?msclkid=757f0a73299a1a0ce785567a0472db2d&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Shopping&utm_term=4578641313904066&utm_content=Shopping

    Elsewhere they are more than double that in price, I bought the first film as a tester and its the real deal. I noticed they had over 50 copies of the first film so there initial quantities may have brought down the price. The Five movies have cost me £60 though worth it for the aesthetics of them being individual Steelbooks… which I will display lol

    Thanks. You definitely got a good deal on those, and I've read that the quality is A+ so I can't wait to get to them again.

    I bought the UHD digital copy of Fallout, ill buy the Steelbook of Fallout when the price drops, hopefully a similar design to the other five movies will be released. As there are Bluray copies included with the UHD I will sell my other Bluray's of the films to recoup some money.

    I sell off the blu rays whenever I upgrade to 4K as well. My understanding is that only the 4K versions are remastered for the MI films - so there are no upgrades to the blu ray.

    Cheers not checked the Bluray disk yet, unless I am watching a digital copy on my laptops or Tablets etc once I have 4K version that's all I will watch. At least the BD versions with 4K disks has the extras on.

    I still have the Bluray boxset of The Dark Knight trilogy though its such a nice Boxset I am reluctant to part with it despite getting the 4K set.

    9½ Weeks (1986)

    Pretty bad film though Mickey Rourke was great in it. 4/10

    Mickey Rourke was one of the best actors at the time and would have been great in Die hard or other films made in the 80's and 90's.

    From imdb.com:

    Was first offered the role of Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop (1984). It was eventually passed on to Sylvester Stallone, and, after many script revisions, Eddie Murphy.

    Turned down Bruce Willis' role in Pulp Fiction (1994) to write and star in F.T.W. (1994).

    Turned down lead roles in Highlander (1986), The Untouchables (1987) and Rain Man (1988).

    On the Waterfront (1954) director Elia Kazan said that Rourke's student audition was the best audition piece he'd seen in 30 years.

    Other movies he is alleged to have turned down include 48 Hrs. (1982), Platoon (1986), Top Gun (1986) and Tombstone (1993).

    Mission Impossible second time in two days, I can't believe how good this looks in 4K and Elfmans score easily one of his best. I am a Brian De Palma fan and I rank this as some of his best work, the film is full of genius camera work.

    Brian De Palma was a genius.
    He doesn't make any good films now which is a shame.

    Love de Palma, his camera work is second to none. M:I 1 is in my top 3 of the series for sure.

    De Palma often pays great homage to Hitchcock and was a worthy successor in his time, I have the majority of his films. The opening scene of Femme Fatale would be worthy of a M:I film it's an incredible sequence. If you guys have not seen the film I highly recommend it for that sequence alone.

    Body Double is the first film I watched its really surreal, Obsession is a well directed film though totally messed up. Raising Cain is good, though the three that stand out are Scarface, Untouchables and Carlito's Way all masterpieces. I watched Sisters for the first time a few years ago, good film. Snake Eyes has its plus points for some great technical scenes.

    Dressed to Kill,Mission: Impossible, Carrie are more classics.
    I haven't seen Raising Cain. Worth watching ?

    De Palma often pays great homage to Hitchcock and was a worthy successor in his time, I have the majority of his films. The opening scene of Femme Fatale would be worthy of a M:I film it's an incredible sequence. If you guys have not seen the film I highly recommend it for that sequence alone.

    I'll have to watch it some day.
    What's your favourite de palma film or films ?

    Body Double is the first film I watched its really surreal, Obsession is a well directed film though totally messed up. Raising Cain is good, though the three that stand out are Scarface, Untouchables and Carlito's Way all masterpieces. I watched Sisters for the first time a few years ago, good film. Snake Eyes has its plus points for some great technical scenes.

    Dressed to Kill,Mission: Impossible, Carrie are more classics.
    I haven't seen Raising Cain. Worth watching ?

    Dressed to Kill is certainly the natural progression of Psycho. Never been the biggest fan of Carrie to be honest it's not a film I revisit though I recognise it. Did not mention Mission Impossible as mentioned it earlier.

    Raising Cain is worth watching for John Lithgow at his insane best.

    I can't watch Raising Cain because i can't stand watching John Lithgow.
