Despite being a critic of the storyline and acting, this movie really deserves a place in a home theater library. It is hard to find material that will demo a good home theater setup as well as this movie. The film itself is pristine, colors are accurate, deep inky blacks, and the soundtrack leaves nothing to be desired. It is the first movie that got me even questioning the available power of my receivers amplifiers. Enjoy it for what it is, an action packed piece of ear and eye candy!
