Anaconda Blu-ray
Sony Pictures | 1997 | 89 mins | Rated PG-13 | Jun 02, 2009
Anaconda(1997)Action | Adventure | Horror | Thriller     A filmmaker and an anthropologist travel to the Amazon to shoot a documentary about a mysterious local tribe, but discover far more than they planned. For more details about Anaconda on Blu-ray, see the Anaconda Blu-ray Review Anaconda Blu-ray, Video Quality  Anaconda debuts on Blu-ray with an adequate 1080p, 2.40:1-framed transfer. The film takes on a slightly washed out appearance throughout, bright in some scenes but generally somewhat hazy and slightly soft. Colors are many but also appear somewhat dull. Whether Sarone's red t-shirt, Danny's Dodger-blue cap, or the many shades of green found in the background jungle locales, the palette appears somewhat dim but nevertheless appropriate when considered in the context and mood of the film. Detail appears sufficiently rendered, whether in human faces, close-ups of the snake, the jungle canopy, or the odds and ends scattered about the boat. The transfer does enjoy a fair sense of depth. Film grain is present though not at all heavy save for but a few scenes and generally over dark backdrops. Blacks fluctuate between a dark tone and a shade of gray. Flesh tones, like colors in general, appear slightly dulled. Anaconda will not set the high definition world on fire, but the transfer appears adequately strong in context of the film's intended appearance. Anaconda Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Anaconda devours the listening area with a powerful, loud, and entertaining Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. The opening attack sequence that sees the snake tear a structure to pieces in search of its prey impresses. Whether the panicked hammering of nails to secure the structure or the snake tearing through the floorboards, the soundtrack immerses the listener in the terror and brings the scene to vivid life. Music, too, fills the soundstage with a nice, clear presentation. The film's many gunshots manage to pack a wallop, the crack of a rifle booming and the echoing sensation traveling all through the soundstage. Minor and major sound effects are presented in a 360-degree sound field. A blowing rainstorm in chapter two highly impresses with a sense of total immersion into the sequence. Likewise, the ambient sounds of the jungle pour out of every speaker to fine effect, about the only thing missing from the experience the sweltering heat. Thankfully, Blu-ray cannot recreate that! With clear dialogue reproduction, Anaconda's lossless soundtrack delivers a fun listen that engages the senses and serves up a solid workout for the home theater speakers.
