Four and a half stars. This is a remarkably clean soundtrack. Dialogue is particularly worthy of note, sounding natural, smooth and clear at all times with no distortion, sibilance or 'chestiness'. At times dialogue is overwhelmed by the film's score, but deliberately so and nothing intended to be heard is lost. The film's score is of unusually high fidelity, and is spread across both the front and, to a much lesser degree, rear soundstages.
High frequencies are crystal clear with no edginess, and bass is solid and deep.
Overall dynamic range is very good. The surround channels are used infrequently, containing only a handful of split-surround directional effects, and directional cues across the front soundstage are rare occurrences. The front soundstage does, however, contain many enveloping ambient effects. The LFE channel, like the surround channels, is used infrequently. Both the surround and LFE channels are used most aggressively toward the film's conclusion, when they are used to dramatic effect.
