The image is usually quite sharp and well defined, however there are some shots that have a somewhat softer, filtered look. Although there is occasional evidence of mild fading, the colors generally tend to be strongly saturated, especially the reds. Blues and greens also fare well in the outdoor photography, plus flesh tones remain pleasing under all lighting conditions. All of the colors are completely stable, without a hint of noise or bleeding.
Blacks are pure and the level of shadow detail is very respectable.
Whatever blemishes are present on the film element never call attention to themselves, however mild grain does creep into the image here and there. Digital compression artifacts are not a concern on this dual layer disc. The Dolby Digital monaural soundtrack is without flaws and sound pleasant enough. Dialogue is fully intelligible and the actors voices always remain clear and distinct. There are no exaggerated high or lows on the soundtrack, but the sound effects remain reasonably realistic.
