Sean Connery gruffs up as Lieutenant Colonel Caldwell in a stodgy, if watchable, 80s thriller. Directed by Peter Hyams, it's well shot and looks good on DVD.
The widescreen transfer is, surprisingly for a Paramount disc, not anamorphic (a process, which carries extra coding to create a more detailed picture on a widescreen TV). Despite this, it remains fresh and relatively free of any distracting grain.
The new 5.1 sound mix is a top-class effort that does a lot to add extra excitement. Hyams is always good at creating quality action set-pieces and this movie has its fair share. Two car chases, with one taking full advantage of the San Francisco settings, and a climactic shoot-out are beefed-up by a busy barrage of effects.
Extra-features-wise there's only the original trailer, but fans of the movie should be pleased with the 5.1 sound mix.
