The Peacemaker (1997)- 9/21/10 - Blu-ray Forum

The Peacemaker is a classic movie that has never looked or sounded this good before

This Blu-ray uses only 33.3GB of space on a dual layer Blu-ray. The bit rate could have been higher to offer a better picture quality and the movie might not have received an 8K or 4K high quality scan from the film negative (Not sure if 4K or 2K was used as the master scan before downconverting it to 1080P). On the positive side this is the best version of the Peacemaker in terms of picture and sound quality that is available to the consumer. When compared to the 1080I MPEG-2 D-VHS version the 1080P AVC Blu-ray version has a higher bit rate and looks better than the 1080I D-VHS version. Depth and resolution were excellent and the DTS-HD Master audio soundtrack was a nice bonus.

This is an excellent realistic fictional movie for those that like movies about the good guys fighting the evil terrorist in the world. Movie shows the US Military and US Government as the good guys fighting the terrorist. Those that have patriotic conservative values should enjoy the movie. The Peacemaker was made in 1997 and is a classic movie. At least there are a few SD bonus features on the disc with a HD Peacemaker movie trailer. No commentary track. I hope a future release of the movie would include a commentary track. It would be interesting to have someone make a commentary track for this action packed movie.

There are two Easter eggs for the Peacemaker on Blu-ray.

The first hidden bonus interview in SD quality lasts 1 minute and 10 seconds. Go into settings from the disc main menu. Then move to subtitles none. Once you reach subtitles none press the right button and then a little yellow X will appear. Hit enter and the short George Clooney interview will occur.

The second bonus interview is 40 seconds. Go to Extras from main menu, then move down to theatrical trailer. Once at the theatrical trailer section click the right button on the remote to see a little gray symbol appear. Hit enter and the short director interview will occur.
