Of course, most movies that are new to DVD have the benefit of a brand new master to go by, so it makes sense that it will only look as good, if not better, than it did in theaters. On the whole, another solid effort by Fox. Audio Essentially a dialogue-driven movie to be sure. Where the Heart Is does have it's moments where the audio can shine. The 5.1 track is well-dispersed throughout the film and has a very solid quality about it.
Dialogue is clean and lacks any distortion.
Nothing to show off your system off to, but it benefits from when it released. As for extras, well, this is where the movie falls a bit short.
