The audio track is a DTS-HD MA 5.1 affair and it is as immersive as they come. This is a track that really puts you in the unforgiving wilderness with our pack of survivors. The winds swirl around you, the ominous sounds of wolves creep up on you, the explosion of the plane puts you right there. This is a really good track.
Extras.
- Commentary. This track features writer/director Joe Carnahan and editors Roger Barton and Jason Hellmann. This is a pretty good commentary with some goo information on the shoot, particularly the plane crash. It is also interesting to listen to Carnahan criticize past crews and current producers.
- Deleted Scenes. A lengthy collection of cut sequences, running more than 22-minutes.
Bottomline. This is a really well made film. It is not pure action nor is it pure drama. It is a solid mixing of the two that welcomes cheers for the tough guy moments as well as quiet thoughtfulness in the face of the more emotional moments. I can say it is not what I was expecting when I sat down to watch it and I suspect it will continue to pay off in future viewings.
Highly Recommended.
