I second this, I just ordered it from Amazon this weekend. One of my favorite of John Grisham's books to be made into a movie. Can't wait to watch it.

ThriceBB · 02-17-2009, 01:45 PM

Hi Folks

I'm new here at blu-ray.com.
I'm from Switzerland and since many US Blu Rays have German DUBs this Site has become very interesting for me.

Please forgive my English. I'm not that good in writing

I have a question to all Owners of "A Time to kill" Blu Ray:
Is the German Audio in 2.0 or 5.1?
Because the package says its 5.1. DVDbeaver says 5.1

But in the Reviews here and at high def digest the german sound is listed 2.0?

What is the truth?

I would love to buy it because the old DVD (1998!) is a ugly Flipper and the Picture Quality isn't that good.
But the DVD has German Sound in 5.1
So for me it would be disappointing when the Sound on the Blu Ray is only 2.0

Greetings from Switzerland

Hello and welcome to the forum

The answer to your question is the German audio is 2.0

Here's the link to the back scan

It shows up as Dolby Digital 5.1 on the PS3.

I don't think the cover is right though. It's definitely using the surrounds on the German audio track so I think the PS3 identifying it as Dolby Digital 5.1 is correct.

SwissHD · 02-20-2009, 07:15 PM

Warner confuses everybody

Thanks for the answers.

Guess it's really 5.1 Sound when PS3 shows it that way.
It would make no sense the other way.

I can't wait to see the movie. It's a long time since the last screening at my home theater because the DVD looks bad when projected on a big screen.

If you got pictures of your home cinema there's a community section with a gallery for posting pictures.

You can also list your collection there to.

I got this the day it came out and the PQ is really good. It's definately one of the best upgrades from dvd I have so far. The old dvd I had was one of the few I had where you have to flip the dvd over half way through like on a laser disk.

infiniteCR · 11-08-2017, 03:25 PM

Last night got to watch this on bluray for my first time since seeing it in theaters and I forgot how great this movie was! This has to be one of my favorite casts and they all play their parts so well. I think its gotten better with age. Highly recommend this one.

Matthew McConaughey ... Jake Tyler Brigance

Sandra Bullock ... Ellen Roark

Samuel L. Jackson ... Carl Lee Hailey

Kevin Spacey ... D.A. Rufus Buckley

Oliver Platt ... Harry Rex Vonner

Charles S. Dutton ... Sheriff Ozzie Walls

Brenda Fricker ... Ethel Twitty

Donald Sutherland ... Lucien Wilbanks

Kiefer Sutherland ... Freddie Lee Cobb

Patrick McGoohan ... Judge Omar Noose

Ashley Judd

thatguamguy · 11-08-2017, 05:11 PM

Don't forget Chris Cooper!

HarryPotterGrl10 · 12-26-2020, 11:30 PM

Is there a chance this could get a UHD release? I love this movie and Matthew in it lol, and WB is pretty good about releasing films (unlike Sony.)

I see no reason why not but, so far, Warner Bros. seems to be just...

...wait for it...

...killing time.
