Good as the cast is, this isall pretty familiar material, and sympathy for this group is often hard to come by.
Audio
The 2.0 sound is no great shakes. Initially, there is virtually nothing emerging from the rearspeakers, not even music. The score picks up energy after a couple of minutes, and is morepresent from then on, but surround sound effects remain sparse. Of course, most of the film isdialogue-driven anyway. Unfortunately, the voices sound harsh and tend to distort.
Video
A fullscreen image, which is already a bad start. The colours are also a bit drab, lookingalmost brownish in some shots. The picture is a bit soft, and there is some grain as well. Theimage isn’t a disaster by any means, but is hardly inspiring, either.
Special Features
None.
Closing Thoughts
Not a bad film, but as with the technical aspects, there is nothing to get really excited abouthere.
