The 2:35:1 framed, AVC/MPEG-4 encoded transfer is just as good as I had expected. The film’s palette does tend to have an overly bronzed approach to it (mostly to capture Lautner’s looks). Blacks are dark and inky while detail is rarely ever lost in darker moments. Speaking of detail, whether close ups of Lautner or exterior shots of Philadelphia, detail is impressive throughout. Shot using Panavision Primo Lenses according to IMDb, this transfer rarely falters. Grain is absent as are any other anomalies. The transfer has a very natural feel and look to it (well, minus that explosions at Nathan’s house. That just looked weird). All in all, this is a solid effort from Lionsgate.
The film’s provided DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 track is quite impressive, despite the film being so bad. The film’s dialogue may be laughable at times (no really you may just laugh), but it’s at least reproduced with fine results. Atmosphere is good as well with Lionsgate’s sound design creating a fine aural experience. Discrete effects, in particular during the moment where Nathan’s ‘parents’ are attacked, add in a grunt or bullet zipping by. LFE is active offering up solid, deep bass at times. While the film may be poorly made, one thing is clear, the provided DTS-HD track is far from poor.
