DVD Eye, The
Panorama

image

It's a bit disappointing to see that still in 2002 some distributors put 4/3 images on DVDs. The image is sharp for a 4/3, clean, but presents some annoying compression defaults.

sound

A very good DTS track, but no 5.1 ? It's quite annoying for those who have an old 5.1 amplifier without DTS compatibility. Single layer DVDs are cheaper of course...

subtitles

Some minor problems.

special features

The trailer and that's it. Disappointing.

menus

Fixed menus, well designed.

quality/price ration

With two superiors editions, this DVD is advised only to people looking for the cheapest price. If you want the best technical DVD, pick the korean one. Otherwise the HK Special Edition is a good compromise.
