Most impressive is how well the dark scenes hold up, never wavering. The blacks are solid, while attention to detail is amazingly strong. Colors are varied, from the bright, vivid colors of the real world, to the muted colors of the mutant world. Saturation is perfect on all accounts, while flesh tones are always realistic. Pristine print allows for clean whites and grays.
Depth of field is also incredible, especially for a special effects film developed in a computer.
No visible compression artifacts or noise. The real super hero is your sound system, especially if it can keep up with this rambunctious 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround soundtrack. All sound fields gets a work out, and the output sounds terrific. Booming basses shake, rattle and roll the room, while middle and high ends are so pure they're angelic. Sounds fields are utilized to the best of their ability, including a front stereo split that is awesome.
