Colors are usually rendered at a very natural level of saturation, but there are some moments in the film where the hues have a somewhat subdued quality and artfully filtered. There are no signs of chromatic distortion or smearing amongst the more intense colors. Blacks are very accurately rendered and shadow detail is generally very good. Some shots don't have as much depth as others, but overall the picture has a very pleasing appearance. Sound effects are well placed, which creates a very involving sonic environment that also benefits from the use of the split surround channels.
Dialogue is always fully intelligible and the actor's voices resonate with a very natural timbre.
Music is nicely integrated into the mix and is reproduced with excellent fidelity. A DTS 5.1 channel soundtrack is also encoded onto the DVD and it provides subtle improvements over the Dolby Digital track. Sound effects seem a bit more distinct in DTS, plus the bass is tighter and the music has a bit more resolution. A standard Dolby Surround soundtrack is also encoded onto the DVD, as are English subtitles. Full motion video animation and sound have been utilized to enhance the interactive menus.
