 One of the most suspenseful movies ever June 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The performances were brilliant, the pacing and direction were phenomenal. I think this was the best film of its kind in the 90's.
I am amazed Andy Davis isn't one of the most in-demand directors in the industry frankly.
 Average video quality for Blu-ray format April 12, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've noticed various reviews here have stated that the video quality was impressive. Personally I was quite disapointed.
This was the first Blu-ray I purchased and frankly I was disappointed with the video quality. I realize the film is never going to look as sparkling and clean as more recent films, but the image quality seemed lacking.
It has a soft, washed out 'milky' look and the detail is off and on. Sometimes the close-ups on faces are impressive, but then it will cut to a city shot at night and I really noticed the lack of definition.
Of course much of this flatness comes from the fact that the photography was fairly dull in the first place (the whole film has a 'grey' look), but I still expected something more impressive on the Blu-ray format.
Also the sound is not HD or PCM. It comes with the same audio as the previous DVD.
So my advice, if you only want to collect Blu-rays with superb video & audio quality, this is NOT one of them. But, if you are simply a fan of the film and want the best quality version available, then this is still your best bet.
Great DVD, "TERRIBLE HD DVD" March 29, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
2 stars because the movie itself, all though now old and dated, is still edge of the seat entertainment and very well produced.
However, on HD DVD, the audio and video quality is extremely poor, well below par and I think far worse than the original DVD.
I had friends around and was showing off my HD DVD player and was so embarrassed after watching the first 20 mins or so that I turned it off and played a DVD !
0 stars for the general movie quality, it is appalling!
"Don't waste your money on this horrible HD version."
 The most horrible Blu-Ray March 5, 2008
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
First, Night scenes, the video is bleeding and spots are everywhere almost like VHS tape.
Day scenes are pretty good but not sharp enough to say wow it's blu-ray!
Most of all worst then previously released normal DVDs.
Sound. Also is the worst. Don't say that because this movie is old. Think about the movie 'Blade runner'.
This doesn't has true HD Sound or PCM uncompressed Dolby Digital 5.1.
I don't know why I bought this after reading other peoples' comments in this website.
Trust me, just don't waste your money.
good hd!!! February 12, 2008
the blu ray version looks so good i even noticed things i never seen before. the green river looks so good as does all the color in this film.
not all blu ray get a great hd remaster like this one.. a great buy!
