Eagle Eye Blu-ray, Video Quality

 


Eagle Eye sees all on Blu-ray through a 1080p, 2.40:1-framed transfer. This is a handsome transfer, with a high quality, lifelike look. Colors are natural in appearance in each of the various lighting schemes the film offers. Detail is high in every shot, and a small layer of grain maintains a cinematic look and feel to the film. Eagle Eye features a subtly dark appearance with a decidedly blue and gray tint that lends a cold, metallic look to the film. Skies are often overcast and many interior shots are not brightly lit, but no detail is lost due to the oftentimes less-than-ideal lighting conditions. A few select, bright daytime shots look fabulous, too, with colors standing out as a bit brighter and cleaner. The transfer is sharp and crisp, with no print anomalies to speak of. Blacks are deep and dark, while flesh tones are natural in appearance. Eagle Eye looks fantastic, even if much of the scenery and lighting schemes don't particularly lend themselves well to eye-popping high definition material.

Eagle Eye Blu-ray, Audio Quality

 


Eagle Eye features a high quality Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. Like the video, it's not the pinnacle of high definition, but is, instead, natural in presentation, an excellent quality in its own right. Much of the track, for example a train depot scene in chapter three, creates a realistic, pleasing atmosphere that places the viewers in the middle of each locale. The action segments truly deliver; Jerry's escape from custody in chapter seven features a bombardment of clear yet robust and exciting surround activity. This action pieces bring the film to vivid life, with deep bass, swirling activity around the soundstage, and impeccable fidelity and imaging that accompany the visuals to perfection. The track simply never misses an opportunity to fill the soundstage with a robust presence, but it never becomes too harsh or overbearing; the action is presented at just the right intensity and volume. Dialogue is sometimes a bit small, low in volume and occasionally the slightest bit muffled under the music, atmosphere, and effects. Nevertheless, Eagle Eye delivers the expected upper-echelon lossless soundtrack, another Dolby TrueHD winner from DreamWorks.
