Aeon Flux

 (2005)

Action | Adventure | Sci-Fi | Thriller



400 years in the future, after a virus decimates the world population, only one city on Earth remains. Ruled by the Goodchild dynasty, it is a perfect society of peace and prosperity – except that its citizens keep mysteriously disappearing. Charlize Theron stars as Aeon Flux, a secret agent/assassin/warrior whose mission is to bring down the regime. But as she goes deeper into her mission, Aeon uncovers some shocking secrets that jeopardize the mission – and her life.

Starring: Charlize Theron, Marton Csokas, Jonny Lee Miller, Sophie Okonedo, Frances McDormand
Director: Karyn Kusama


Aeon Flux Blu-ray, Video Quality

  n/a


Paramount’s Aeon Flux is presented in a 2:35:1, MPEG-2/1080p encode that is very good, but has some flaws. Aeon Flux has excellent cinematography, and this Bluray release does a very good job of showing it. Since this is a digital to digital transfer, there is no source film print that could introduce dirt and speckles. What you do get is a remarkably clean encode with deep solid inky blacks, contrast and sharpness that is spot on, colors vivid, ultra real, free of noise, and presents visual images with such depth, it appears to go on forever into the background. I have the HD DVD version of this film in my possession and decided to compare the two. In this comparison the HD DVD’s VC-1 encode fairs a little better than the Bluray’s MPEG-2 encoding. I noticed some posterization, video noise in dark scenes, and a little coarser of a presentation when compared to the artifact free and smoother presentation of the HD DVD encode. While the Bluray’s presentation is a little less refined than the HD DVD presentation, it is still very, very good viewing, artifacts and all.


Aeon Flux Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  Array of 5


To say that Aeon Flux’s 5.1 Dolby Digital soundtrack, encoded at 640kbps is aggressive is quite frankly an understatement. The sound field is well used, from the center, to the edges of this mix, extending nicely into the rear hemisphere. However, the mix is not evenly spread, and suffers from what I call “bunching” around the action sequences. During the quiet scenes, there is no supporting ambience to give the scene a bit of aural realism. However as soon as the action begins, the soundtrack takes off like a Ferrari, filling the air with powerful percussion, gunfire, body blows, legs kicks, and grunts from body blows. Explosions blow through the room with such impact, it can be a little startling. There is also some very interesting panning (though not very natural) that is going to test the coherence of your front and rear speakers. There are several instances of panning that travels from left front, through the center and right channels, travels through the room to the left surround, then to the right surround. It’s a pretty dramatic effect, but one that always reminded me I was listening to a soundtrack. Bass is astounding, deep, tight, powerful, and spread to every channel including the surrounds. The LFE is well used, and will test the mettle of your subwoofer when played back at high levels. Grame Revell´s film score gets totally lost among the bombast of the sound effects, but what can be heard is well recorded. Accompanying the excellent Dolby Digital track is an English 5.1 Dts track, and a French and Spanish Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks encoded at 448kbps.
