Jack Cassidy brings some fun to the role of Miles Mellough. The source material for this DVD transfer of The Eiger Sanction is unremarkable. Color vitality is quite good and the picture is consistently sharp. There are scenes that have been overenhanced to mine the most information out of the image. The result is image ringing and some straight edge break-up.
Element grain is handed with skill.
Recorded in Dolby Digital 2-channel mono, the sound is clean, dialogue easy to understand, and the music of John Williams excellent screen accompaniment.
