Inception (Blu-ray)
It's very rare that I'm blown-away by a movie, but that's certainly the case here. Christopher Nolan has solidified himself as one of the best writers/directors in Hollywood with his work over the last 10 years includes Memento, Insomnia, The Prestige, and reshaping the Batman franchise, but this is his best work yet.
Video Highlights
- VC-1/1080p encode on a BD-50 disc
- Amazing depth and clarity
- Inky blacks with revealing shadows
- Accurate color reproduction
Audio Highlights
- DTS-HD MA 5.1 soundtrack
- Crisp dynamics
- Ample bass
- Enveloping surround environment
- Intelligible dialog
The presentation is outstanding and helps draw you into the movie. The action scenes provide a lot of demo-worthy audio scenes and the CGI will blow your mind.
