A movie that if I can put my baggage aside, still plays pretty well.

I just wish it was better. And longer. And had a good villain. And was more tightly plotted. And more developed. But I digress. ;)

The LD transfer is like the badass older brother of the old VHS; natural color, slightly washed out analog-ish look,  proper scope framing. It's not as good as the others, but is older by a few years.

The audio again is the reason to own a copy. Despite only being Dolby Stereo, this is a POWERHOUSE of detail. Very extended high end range yet still natural. Satisfying and bests the DVD 5.1 but not quite as fun as Temple. Original panning/sound design intact.

A begrudging 3.5 balls out of 4 for what is there if only suggested. This should have been a better picture.
