DETENTION (Sidney J. Furie, 2003)

[carrie]

im really excited,this morning "DETENTION" arrived and i have just finished watching it,and i wasnt expecting too much from what i had heard,but im thrilled to say i really enjoyed it,its not a bad movie at all, and Travis where did you get "old,tired and skinny" from,we must have been watching different movies because i think he looked FANTASTIC,maybe a few less clothes would have been appreciated but what can i say,i make no opologies im just a perv!!!!!!!,.so ladies dont worry they man himself is still HOT ,HOT,HOT.(I DEFFINATELY WOULD).XX

I found it mediocre. Nothing special in either case, it's certainly better then such duds as Last Warrior,Captured,Sweepers and Fallen Knight but it's pretty much routine stuff. Not as good as Hidden Agenda and the villians were annoying.

[Jox]

yeah the villains are not very interesting and their leader is really overplaying

[bomaz]

anybody know if detention is preview to be released in France ?
is there a French dubbed version on the dvd ?
When will be "direct action" released in USA ?
and two general questions : 1) is that true that Dolph have made a arm-wrestle ( bras-de-fer ) with the belgian actor Benoit Poelvoorde ?
2) do you hate French ? ( itsn't compulsory to answer this one , and it's not compulsory to answer the thers , but I think the last is maybe harder !!!! )

- Detention sera distribué par Metropolitan/Seven 7 en vidéo/DVD mais je ne sais pas quand

- Direct Action ne sortira pas avant cet été à mon avis voire fin d'année aux US puisque Detention vient seulement d'y sortir alors qu'il est sorti 6 mois + tôt en Allemagne (les deux films se sont tournés à presque 1 an d'intervalle)

1)Oui! Dolph et Benoit Poelvoorde ont fait un bras de fer amical en mai 2001 lors de l'émission "+ de cinéma" à Cannes

Well, Sweepers wasn't one of his best but it was ok. My bf even thought it had a surprisingly deep and interesting story for a DL movie. Last Warrior and Fallen Knight are the most boring DL movies I've seen.

Bomaz,
j'ai oublié de te dire au cas où tu ne serais pas déjà au courant, que le DVD zone 2 des Maîtres de l'univers vient de sortir en France pour moins de 15€! (avec la bande annonce et le commentaire audio de Gary Goddard comme sur le zone 1)

[Dawn]

Did you say that the commentary is on the Region 2 disc? My French skills suck! LOL. But to answer Bomaz' question, no I do not hate the French. France helped the USA during the Revolutionary War and we have helped them in war too and other aid. I am sure the countries will continue their friendship as in the past. We are all brothers and sisters and I am sure even though our leaders get in squabbles, everyone makes up and gets over it!

[Jox]

yes, the audio commentary is in the French DVD region 2 ( as well as on the British one I think)

"Detention" grossed $0.76 million dollars in its first five days of video rentals in the US according to IMDB (it's at 31st place of the weekly charts).[/i]

Coming back to Detention: what's on the making of/featurette of the DVD? is it just B-Rolls takes on the German one? (see gallery here http://www.gmrmedia.com/dolph/dolph-in/makingof/detention/index.html

[Jox]

sorry, I meant: is it just B-rolls takes like on the German one?

[carrie]

Jox i was really dissapointed as far as the "special features" go, it says "access the special features for DETENTION by pressing the menu key on your dvd player,s remote control " we pressed and pressed but got nothing,zilch jack shit ,it has nothing. the only option it has is ENGLISH/FRENCH language.
