Compression artifacts were completely disguised by solid DVD authoring. The Dolby Digital 5.1 channel soundtrack is nothing short of explosive. Tight, responsive bass and well-placed directional effects make the most of the discrete capabilities of the Dolby Digital format. Dialogue reproduction was also clean and fully intelligible, even during the loudest passages in the film. The DVD also includes a matrixed Dolby Surround soundtrack, plus a French language track.
Subtitles are available in English and French.
Columbia TriStar is jumping on the interactive menu bandwagon in big way- with the menus for THE BIG HIT containing both full animation and sound. Through the menus one can access two running audio commentaries, one featuring director Che-Kirk Wong and producer Terence Chang and the other featuring screenwriter Ben Ramsey. Both commentaries are worth a worth a listen for those so inclined. Other supplements include a theatrical trailer and deleted scenes.
