The colors are absolutely startling, including dependable saturation that never bleeds or fades, and flattering flesh tones that are almost dreamy. The colors are extremely vivid, especially during the film's many storm sequences. The skies almost look surrealistic. Depth of field and attention to detail are always strong, while there isn't one iota of compression artifacts or noise. A tiny amount of flecking, but the clean original negative allows for virgin whites and pure shadows.
Blacks are also heavy duty, never wavering.
Nicely rendered stereo mix puts you right in the middle of the action, including strong, natural ambient noise and a fluid, almost lyrical musical score. Rear speakers get a lot of attention. No audible hiss or distortion. Terminal Forget the screenplay and enjoy the romantic antics of the leads. Screenwriter Marc Lawrence is quickly becoming the Akiva Goldsman of his generation.
