 COMPRA PERFECTA PARA HISPANOHABLANTES July 31, 2009
A. Domingo (Spain)
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Compré este Blu Ray, totalmente compatible con mi Playstation 3 española, a pesar de que en la caja y los propios blue ray, dice todo lo contrario.
br /
br /Como nota, decir que incluye muchos más idiomas de los que pone en la caja, incluido el doblaje español original de España, y el latino de los Ángeles, subtítulos, y como no, el fantástico Master de sonido original en inglés, que es el que yo utilizo junto con los subtítulos en español, solo compatible con decodificadores DTS, el resto de pistas de audio se pueden reproducir en cualquier medio/decodificador.
br /
br /La calidad de sonido y video es inmejorable, compra imprescindible para todos los amantes de esta fantástica serie.
Lost season 1 on Blu-Ray- Beautiful and Engaging. June 20, 2009
Mr. R. Tzakov
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A beautiful introduction to the brilliant series Lost. You get to know the characters in a somehow intimate way, but you also get the feeling of the desperately stranded people on the island who find themselves in these bizarre circamstances. The character development and the dynamics of the people and their interactions are superbly written. Michael Giacchino's soundtrack is simply fantastic.
br /Clever plot, complex characters, stunning scenes, mysterious occurances, brilliant score.

A show that boldly goes where no other has gone before August 7, 2009
Frank Bitterhof (Berlin)
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I started watching the second season on LOST on TV a longer time ago but realized soon that in order to keep track and fully appreciate the show, it seemed better to postpone any further LOST watching until Season One and Two became available on Blu-ray (i.e. HD) and watch the show in chronological order (a wise decision as it has turned out to be).
br /
br /This is a unique, mesmerizing TV show with a special appeal to adult (i.e. mid-life) audiences, which among others draws inspiration from works like MYSTERIOUS ISLAND, SURVIVOR (the US reality TV show), THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, THE PRISONER, various works of Stephen King and elements and clues that are reminiscent of better video games.
br /
br /That LOST's main creators, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof, picked supporting actors from the BABYLON 5 universe, MATRIX:RELOADED and LORD OF THE RINGS, suggested to me on a subconscious level to have faith in this TV show, which has not been disappointed. On the contrary my early expectations in regard to LOST exceeded far beyond what I thought I could possibly expect.
br /
br /LOST achieves the seemingly impossible task of combining gritty reality with enchanting mystery. Just as in real-life and with friends and people we come to meet, we get to learn more and more about the characters through the means of flashbacks which eventually either turns us away from a character or establishes a bond through sympathy. Sensitive audiences may have difficulties with various scenes, especially during the first two seasons, but I felt it to be obvious that these were not intended to attract audiences hungry for blood and gore but to add to the realism (my wife had a hard time with the graphic, medical surgeries - especially in the pilot episodes - but I told her she should consider it a desensitization attempt of her fears, enabling her to provide first aid after a traffic accident...).
br /And instead of graphically showing the dangers and 'monsters' of the island of LOST, the creators cleverly opted to address the spectators' own imagination instead (as it usually turns out to be more frightening what we do NOT see).
br /
br /The characters are three-dimensional, the (final) choice of actors is excellent and dialogues range from very good to simply outstanding. If there was any complaint I were asked to mention, it would be that I felt the romance triangle between Jack, Kate and Sawyer at times to be rather immature and not totally convincing (just my two pennies). On the other hand LOST takes a firm stand against racial prejudice, with the Iraqi character of Sayid Jarrah beeing portrayed as one of the most common-sense, repentant survivors of Oceanic Flight 815 (my wife is of Christian Arab origin, she was positively shocked, because that was the last thing she would have expected from an American TV show). Through the Korean couple Sun-Hwa Kwon and her husband Jin-Soo Kwon, LOST also provides us with insights into Asian culture.
br /
br /While the aforementioned elements contribute to make LOST a unique, interesting and entertaining TV show, I feel the most remarkable and outstanding characteristic is the enormous range and diversity in the way the show explores ethical, philosophical and spiritual issues (with my personal highlight being a witty, verbal punch John - faith - delivers in a short dialogue with Jack - science - in the last episode of Season One).
br /
br /It seems some audiences have criticized LOST for the amount of 'puzzle pieces' the creators add on a regular basis while still being in the process of putting he early 'puzzle pieces' together, thus creating confusion and disorientation. Having now watched Seasons One through Three (given the current lack for the third season on Blu-ray in the UK, we switched to DVD rentals) in a moderate 'marathon', my wife and I can't share this criticism.
br /On the contrary I hope that J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof will resist the urge to put the entire puzzle together because that'll be be like putting a lid on the show which might be counter-productive to LOST becoming a timeless cult classic (in my humble opinion some loose ends will rather serve to keep audiences busy to continue using their own imagination and interpretation as it is and has been with Patrick McGoohan's THE PRISONER).
br /However, my wife found those LOST episodes confusing, that entered the realm of THE TWILIGHT ZONE where all of us were invited to deal with different scenarios of what this was all about (Hurley, Desmond and at the end of the third season Naomi, making a stirring claim which didn't seem improbable, given previous events and hints...). Ever since TOTAL RECALL and THE MATRIX, I, on the other hand, have cherished such an occasional "mindf..." and felt these episodes rather to be contributing to the diversity of LOST, than being a distraction.
br /
br /Looking forward to the second part of the story of LOST (i.e. Season Four through Six), I feel it is safe to suggest that among the "100 things to do before you die" watching this TV show ranks among the top spots. This show is asking important questions - and invites each and everyone of us to answer these questions in regard to our own, individual personal lifes. This not just another TV show, it is a profound experience.

 A definitive edition? June 15, 2009

This review focuses primarily on the Blu Ray transfer of Lost: The Complete First series; Lost itself seems to be one of those programmes you either love or hate, and I think it's extremely good, with the first two seasons being especially strong.
br /
br /The transfer itself is excellent, and the increase in resolution is especially noticable on facial close-ups, the detail really is better than many BD films I've seen. There is grain noticable on some longer shots and darker scenes, but in no way is this detrimental to the viewing experience - this is definately a huge step up from the original DVD.
br /
br /Moving onto the presentation, I was annoyed that after loading the disc presents a trailer for the Series 4 Blu Ray of Lost - if you were watching from the start, the last thing you'd want to see is tasters of what happens three years later. However, a BD-exclusive feature is the so-called "Season Play" which allows you to create a profile for yourself, and then whenever you return to the program, even after removing the disc, the show resumes from where you left off. This is a very useful feature, and well implemented.
br /
br /Finally, the extras. Unfortunately, these are unchanged from the DVD release, and though they are substantial, they offer little incentive for those upgrading from DVD.
br /
br /And that leads me nicely into my conclusion, which is that apart from the dramatic increase in resolution, excellent as it is, there is little reason for casual fans who own the original set to purchase this Blu Ray. However, if you're a massive Lost fan, or new to the series, then you won't be disappointed in this commendable package.
