Just be aware that the UK version is not in the OAR, but open matted and also has DD 5.1 audio. Japanese release is far better.

Its a great action flick, I thought it looked fine on blu, but the 5.1DD sure its punchy, but I would of liked a DTS-MA or TrueHD.

Is it only Open Matte, or is there cropping on the sides? I dont mind Open Matte, as your not losing anything, as opposed to actual cropping.

Any FX shot will be cropped to fit the modified aspect ratio of 1.78:1, as the FX shots are only rendered at the theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1.

You may not be "losing" any image with the exception of FX shots, but you are losing the original framing because a close-up would become a medium shot, etc, and the positioning of the characters and objects of interest in a frame would be messed up, because you are seeing extra information on the top and bottom of the frame that was never intended to be shown.
