But that's a tiny nit, man. All in all, the video looks terrific. The 5.1 surround sound is also excellent here, with a very deep soundstage in the front and rear, and wonderful bass. The dialogue is at all times clear and natural, and the mix is loaded with fun little directional sound effects - some subtle and others sudden and thunderous. This is a film in which sound is extremely important in reinforcing the visuals.
Scenes often take place underwater or in large, echo-prone rooms and chambers.
And the presence of water causes sound to carry differently, which is nicely reflected in this mix. When Aquaria begins to collapse, you'll hear the groaning of over-stressed metal, the pinging of bursting rivets, and the icy crackling of safety glass. As far as extras, this isn't exactly a loaded disc, but what you get is pretty decent. To start with, there's an interesting audio commentary track with director Renny Harlin and Samuel L. Jackson. It feels a little odd at first, because the two were recorded separately, but it's surprisingly well edited and it works nicely.
