Comment: surprisingly
good video transfer; mostly clean sourced, vibrant colours and remarkable
detail even on dark lit scenes. Bit rate is fairly high ~7Mb/sec. Few
flaws, video/interlaced sourced transfer instead of film/progressive
which shows aliasing and motion artefacts. Sharpness is good but could
have been better. Comparable to Ayngaran
DVDs.

Comment:
encoded in Dolby Digital 5.1, but seems a very weak 5.1 mix - only the
front channels are active, rear surrounds apart from a slight noise
have no audio
Overall DVD rating:
7/10
- good DVD let down by the weak sound (not sure of the original
film sound mix - so this could be unavoidable)
