No problem with compression artifacts, while attention to detail is amazing considering how much of the film is low lit. Blacks are superior, never losing their opaqueness. Flesh tones are very appealing and lifelike, while the rest of the palette looks natural. Depth of field is okay, while a pristine master allows for a clean print with pure whites. Excellent English 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Creepy soundtrack finds a good home on the digital mix, which manages to put you in the middle of the events.
Rear speakers find plenty to do, while the basses are used for effect.
The entire range of sound is clean, while the high ends literally purr with perfection. Ambient noise is really effective, almost to the point of being distracting. Good Audio commentary with writer-director David Koepp is actually quite entertaining. The high profile writer turned director has plenty to say, and discusses how he arrived at this point in his career. Writers always have the best stories, and Koepp is no exception.
