Navy Seals Blu-rayMetro-Goldwyn-Mayer | 1990 | 114 mins | Rated R | Jun 02, 2009
Navy Seals(1990)Action | Adventure ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Navy's elite SEAL (SEa, Air and Land) squad is made up of the best of the best: supreme warriors who take on dangerous missions no other fighting force would dare attempt. Sent to rescue the crew of a U.S. aircraft held hostage by mideast terrorists, the SEALs know that their skills will be put to the test. But when they discover that the terrorists have seized the plane's arsenal of deadly Stinger missiles, they're thrust onto the frontlines of the battle of a lifetime.

While this isn't a top-notch, reference-grade transfer, there's no single egregious problem, either. There's some blatant telecine wobble over the opening credits, and grain seems to come and go as it pleases, but there's nothing too terribly bad to report with this one. Fine detail is adequate throughout, though close-up shots of human faces reveal little texture and a somewhat smooth appearance. The best detail comes in the final act in Beirut. The war-torn city lacks color, consisting of varied shades of gray and all obscured by smoke, but the rubble on the ground and damaged building façades tend to impress. Navy Seals looks consistently flat throughout. Black levels are nice and dark, and flesh tones never waver too far towards an unnatural shade. A watchable but underwhelming transfer, Navy Seals looks fine for a bargain basement catalogue Blu-ray release. Navy Seals Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Navy Seals' DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack fares a bit better than the video presentation. Dialogue, though usually delivered with nary a hiccup, once or twice becomes garbled underneath overzealous music and sound effects. The score plays neatly and without room for complaint throughout. Ambience neither wholly impresses nor completely disappoints; an early beachside scene features gentle waves rolling across the front of the soundstage, and at several other junctures throughout the track picks up a fair sense of environmental immersion. Gunfire, too, is delivered crisply. Ricochets bounce around the soundstage and shell casings rattle around on the floor to decent effect. The highlight, however, comes from several shots of a .50 caliber sniper rifle that pack a fair bit of heft and liven up the excitement another notch. The surround speakers come alive during several firefights with gunshots cracking and explosions rocking the listening area from all directions. Navy Seals is certainly not the end-all, be-all of Action movie lossless soundtracks, but longtime fans should appreciate the increased oomph and presence the DTS track provides.
