Tekkonkinkreet Blu-raySony Pictures | 2006 | 111 mins | Rated R | Sep 25, 2007
Tekkonkinkreet(2006)Action | Anime | Crime ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Black and White are two street urchins. They have no home, no parents… only each other. They steal, mug, beat people… It's not the yakuza that owns Treasure town, it's Black (the smart, bitter one) and White (the dumb, innocent one). But when a developer wants to turn the dark, ugly streets into an amusement park, he brings about challengers that even Black will have trouble against! For more details about Tekkonkinkreet on Blu-ray, see the Tekkonkinkreet Blu-ray Review Starring: Min Tanaka, Yoshinori Okada, Nao Omori, Masahiro Motoki, Yusuke Iseya Directors: Himaki Ando, Hiroaki Ando, Michael Arias Tekkonkinkreet Blu-ray, Video QualityReleased to Blu with a high bitrate AVC encoding that averages 30 Mbps, Tekkonkinkreet is another fine example of hand-drawn animation in high definition. Treasure Town comes alive with a garish and chintzy look, sporting vivid hues that span the entire spectrum. The clarity and sharpness of the character line art is superb, while the highly detailed, hand-painted backgrounds and layouts can be studied by viewers even at a great distance. Contrast is excellent, and the film's whimsical look is reproduced beautifully in this transfer. Intentional "blotchy" effects akin to paint crawl can even be seen in White's daydreams and on Black's dark companion, the Minotaur. Black levels are deep and rich, while whites are bright and without bloom - an important technical detail given the film's abundant black vs. white symbolism. No compression artifacts were apparent in the film's entirety. Being a digitally finished film, the Blu-ray transfer was completely free of physical film flaws, as well. Overall, Tekkonkinkreet boasts a lively and beautiful picture that makes the film all the more entrancing. Tekkonkinkreet Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Tekkonkinkreet is supplied with three tracks on this release. The primary mix is a lossless PCM 5.1 option in the film's original Japanese language. Two Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks in Japanese and English, respectively. In addition, English SDH captions, appearing as white text within black blocks, or English subtitles are supplied with a literal translation; the English dub does not come transcribed. Spanish, Portuguese, and French subtitles also literally describe the spoken dialogue. The Japanese PCM audio is a full an impressive mix, made all the better by the trippy rock scoring of British band Plaid. The music is well mixed into every channel, enveloping the viewer into the urban world of Black and White. Dialogue is normally reserved to the center, though it follows the characters at times on the fronts. Even in quieter moments of musing, the characters' words are clear and easy to hear. As mentioned, the rears pick up an impressive amount of information, and the mix is livelier than most Blu-rays I have sampled recently. The LFE does its fair share as well, lending a good boost to the stylized fight sequences or the opening musical flyover of the city, for example. Tekkonkinkreet Blu-ray, Forum Discussions
