MOST. OVERHYPED. FILM. EVER.
Over hyped? Maybe. Good? You bet your ass.
For those who bought the Region 3 LE Gift set of THE HOST, this Region 1 set comes along to help decipher all those un-subtitled extras!
I know R4 releases don't really figure much on this site, but the R4 2-disc release of this film is also coming out in July with same extras plus additional exclusive material: interview with Bong Joon-ho, Q&A;at cinematic premiere in Australia and concept/production/animatics galleries.
