Neither chroma noise or digital compression artifacts offered any serious detriment to the image. The Dolby Digital 2.0 soundtrack decodes to standard surround with pleasing results. Channel separation is pretty good across the forward soundstage. However, like most matrixed soundtracks, the surround channels are limited, offering little beyond the occasional effect, ambient sounds and musical fill. Dialogue is very cleanly reproduced, as is the musical component of the soundtrack.
Subtitles are available on the DVD in English.
The basic interactive menus provide the standard scene selection and setup features, as well as giving one access to a theatrical trailer.
