Obviously, his box office appeal to the youthful female demographic garnered him the role. My vote for best performance in the film goes to Liev Schreiber as Deputy Stu Wargle. Screen legend Peter O'Toole gets top billing for the role of disgraced academic Timothy Flyte, who is forced to work as a tabloid journalist to make ends meet. O'Toole is rather good as the scientist who got kicked out of academia, when he published his theories about an ancient evil that wiped out all the lost civilizations of the world. While much of the film is dark, the detail level is high and the daylight sequences look even better.
Colors are accurate and offer excellent saturation, without any trace of distortion.
The track has excellent channel separation, including the fully active surrounds. Sound effects sweep around the sound stage, while the dialogue remains clear and localized in the center channel. The rudimentary interactive menu offers just the standard scene and subtitle selection feature.
