La Femme Nikita Blu-ray
NikitaSony Pictures | 1990 | 117 mins | Rated R | Dec 02, 2008
La Femme Nikita(1990)Action | Crime | Drama | Romance | Thriller     Rescued from death row by a top-secret agency, Nikita (Anne Parillaud) is slowly transformed from a cop-killing junkie into a cold-blooded bombshell with a license to kill. But when she begins the deadliest mission of her career only to fall for a man who knows nothing of her true identity, Nikita discovers that in the dark and ruthless world of espionage, the greatest casualty of all...is true love. For more details about La Femme Nikita on Blu-ray, see the La Femme Nikita Blu-ray Review Starring: Anne Parillaud, Jean-Hugues Anglade, Tchéky Karyo, Jeanne Moreau, Jean Reno Director: Luc Besson La Femme Nikita Blu-ray, Video Quality  Presented in its original aspect ratio of 2.35:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Luc Besson’s La Femme Nikita arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Sony Pictures. Even a basic comparison between the Special Edition SDVD (blue cover) and the Blu-ray release of La Femme Nikita would quickly reveal how substantially better the film looks in 1080p. Contrast here is spectacular, detail consistently strong and clarity undoubtedly the best I have seen. Furthermore, a lot of the color pulsations the old MGM disc was plagued with are definitely not an issue of concern with this transfer. On the contrary, the color-scheme of La Femme Nikita looks notably healthy and strong (perhaps the greatest improvement the Blu-ray disc offers in terms of color reproduction is the excellent saturation). This being said, the print provided by Sony also reveals a good dose of film grain, which those of you with larger screens will certainly appreciate - La Femme Nikita looks very natural and, I assume, the best it could without a massive restoration being performed on it. Finally, I did not detect any specs, debris, or dirt to report here. (Note: This is a Region-Free release which you will be able to play on your PS3 or SA regardless of your geographical location). La Femme Nikita Blu-ray, Audio Quality There are two audio tracks that you will find on this Blu-ray disc: French Dolby TrueHD 5.1 and English Dolby TrueHD 5.1 (strangely enough, the English dub appears to be the default track). The treatment Sony have provided is also a substantial upgrade over what was offered on the SE DVD. The French Dolby True HD 5.1 is notably active, potent and crisp. Also, the rear channels get plenty of activity. Furthermore, a lot of the action scenes (especially the gunshots) reveal a very nice crispness, which I am positive will impress fans of La Femme Nikita. The bass isn’t overly active, but there really isn’t a lot in this film that relies on it. Finally, the dialog is crystal clear and very easy to follow. This being said, I did switch to the English dub a few times but found it to be quite lifeless. Technically, however, I believe that it is, at best, a good match for the French track. Finally, Sony have provided optional English SDH, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean subtitles. When tuned on, they appear under the image frame.
