On the DVD: Rollerball's commentary by Chris Klein, LL Cool J and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos is jokey, amiable and reveals plenty of filmmaking trivia without offering anything substantial. The "Rollerball Yearbook" presents text profiles of the four teams and 11 key players linked to "highlights", i.e., montages taken from the film of the participants. This also has sections on six areas of the "Roller Dome" and three sections on "Game Gear", which amounts to a photo gallery of costumes, masks and bikes. Also included is the theatrical trailer and trailers for three other SF movies. The anamorphic 2.35:1 transfer is excellent, and the Dolby Digital 5.1 sound is suitably dynamic and raucous. There are subtitles in six languages as well as English and English for Hard of Hearing, while the disc also contains French and Spanish dubs of the main feature. --Gary S Dalkin

Complete rubbish!,

This review is from: Rollerball [DVD] (DVD)
I am a massive fan of the original Rollerball and yet when I saw the trailer for the new one at the cinema I was very excited. Sadly after 10 minutes watching it my joy was turned to one of bitter disapointment for it was not worth the entrance fee. The actors were all miscast, the performances poor, the action laughable and the storyline boring. Who thought that it would be a good idea to put LL Cool J into the movie anyway? I found him to be more irritating than entertaining and I had to confess that I have never watched the movie all the way through simply because I found I had better things to do with my time. A waste of a classic film license.

This review is from: Rollerball [DVD] (DVD)
Were can I start its going to be hard to review this film without swearing but I'll try...... As a fan of the original I was quite looking forward to this film, when it came out it received poor reviews so I never bothered getting it, however after a good few months I did decide to get it, the original is one of the most powerful films I have seen and is certainly in my top 10, this is by far the worst film I have ever seen in my life. The arena has been modernized and now resembles a circus ring rather than a sports arena, the players are like WWF characters and the action is just lame. Motorbikes are still a factor however they serve no purpose, the scoring mechanism looks like they have made a prequel rather than a sequel. Chris Klein (a Keanu Reeves wannabe it seems) is the worst actor in the world, he portrays a real soft geezer, a wet fart so to speak and at one point when he was referred to as "The angriest man in the game" I nearly choked to death... Maybe that would have been a good thing as I would not have been able to see the rest of the film..... The story is pants, the action is superficial, and acting is terrible, the editing (especially the sound) is the worst ever... It is an embarrassment to the word Rollerball, the only good thing to came out of it is REBECCA ROMIJN-STAMOS however that just does not make up for it unfortunately. Don’t buy, however if you want to be able to tell your mates that you have seen the worst ever film in the history of man, then rent it, and if you haven’t seen the original, then buy that, its a must see film........ sooo disappointed

Poor.,
By KEVIN J NEEDHAM (sawbridgeworth, Herts United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rollerball [DVD] (DVD)
Very disappointed. The original was a classic and the actual match scenes were superb. This remake is dreadful. The arena is absolutely rubbish and everything becomes too cluttered on screen to actually see what is happening. The kernel of the story was OK and if they had used the original set then it might have worked. However, this was very, very poor. Don't bother, just watch the original again!
