Phantom Punch [Blu-ray] Reviews By Customers

I had the chance to watch an advance screening of this film and am looking forward to owning the DVD to see it again. I was pleasantly surprised how great the acting was; Ving Rhames is terrific as Sonny L. Probably my favorite performance, though, was from Nicholas Turturro, who could give Joe Pesci a run for his money! At times, I had to remember that I wasn't watching a documentary (although I'm sure director Robert Townsend took a few liberties!)

With the language and occasional violence, obviously this is a film for adults. Highly recommended!

About Sub-Titles - fredyb -
I have noticed above on the spec's it says this movie has English Sub-titles, however when I was at Blockbuster as always I check to see if the DVD's are either closed captioned or sub-titled as both my kids are deaf, the DVD cover said nothing about either, so of course I put it back as I do any movie that has niether.

So I am wondering if anybody out here that own's this movie can check for me if this things is truly subtitled and would like to thank whom ever in advance. Thank You, Fredrick
