Go out, watch it and have a good time. It's just a well-made film that deserves the attention heaped upon it. The least said about it, the better. As for the video quality, it's very good but not first-rate. There's lots of picture grain evident and at times it's quite obvious, but this is how the film appeared in theaters.
Skin tones are fine, and the overall contrast is fair.
It's better than VHS, so I guess I can't complain too much. The English and French tracks are both in Dolby Digital 5.1 and the sound quality for both is generally also very good. The sound effects all come across in your sound field and the score just creeps around you. The dialogue is pretty much centered in the front, with little play in the side fields. I don't think it absolutely kicks ass, but to the casual enthusiast it's just fine.
