Rerelease of Italian Job better transfer?

[boe]

Hello,

I see there was a BR copy released in 2006 - https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-I...ob-Blu-ray/36/
That had pretty poor video transfer

Does anyone know if this one is any better?

Spec wise they seem pretty similar.

It's the same disc with a new cover.

^Looks like just a change of cover art to me. The newer version is mentioned as Region A on the site but the back cover doesn't claim any specific region, suggesting that it is, like the previous release, region free. Most likely identical discs.

Why not get the more entertaining 1969 original instead?

Because you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!

Oh and because the original doesn't have Charlize Theron!

Thanks both of you for replying. It is a shame they didn't do a better job with the BR of the newer version, I really enjoyed it.

HD DVD version looks pretty good to me

Yea, the only difference looks like the cover.
