Entertaining, if dated action drama
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.The picture and sound are the reasons to revisit this movie. It's been a long time prior to now since I watched it, and the movie, while entertaining, is a little melodramatic and certainly dated to the early '90's. The remastered picture and sound however look and sound right out of the modern era. Tremendous overhead and low-end sound, and crisp picture quality without looking scrubbed. The steelbook is nice too.

You know you want this
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This is a heavely steelbook for the hottest film from 1991 - with a cast so HOT, this film literally induced my wife's labor for our first child! This demo-worthy disc with HDR10 makes fire more seductive and scary than it's ever appeared before. The DTS:X track is a fully enveloping and room shaking experience. If you didn’t buy this film when it first hit standard 4K - and what's wrong with you - stop reading this review and buy this new piece of home video art!
