For more about The Man From Nowhere and the The Man From Nowhere Blu-ray release, see The Man From Nowhere Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on March 5, 2011 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.0 out of 5. Starring: Won Bin, Kim Sae-ron, Thanayong Wongtrakul Director: Lee Jeong-beom » See full cast & crew The Man From Nowhere Blu-ray, Video QualityThe Man from Nowhere sports a sharp and detailed AVC encoded 1080p image in 2.35:1. As with so many current gangster films, the bulk of this film is cast in cool, icy shades of blue, and a lot of the film is very dark. That said, detail is really rather remarkable even in the shadowy segments, though blacks occasionally do crush. The film sports a desaturated look in terms of fleshtones in many of these darker segments, but fine detail remains clear and vibrant throughout. Some of the very darkest segments sport a noticably softer image, with more apparent grain, than brighter sequences. When we move outdoors, or into brightly lit shots, contrast and clarity are exceptional and some extreme close-ups reveal astounding levels of fine detail. Overall this image is very sharp and well delineated and the colors, while intentionally muted, are accurately reproduced and give the film a shimmering coolness which ably reflects the lead characters' internal anguish. The Man From Nowhere Blu-ray, Audio QualityThe Man from Nowhere doesn't skimp on lossless tracks, offering nice DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mixes in both Korean and English. I could only stand the English dub for short stretches, not due to an inadequacy of the mix itself but due to the usual ineptitude of the actual dub. The original Korean track is the one to go with here, and it provides a bristlingly visceral experience from virtually the very first moments. The first sequence inside the dance club is alive with immersion and some floor rattling bass thumping emanating from the subwoofer. The action sequences are very well detailed with some exceptional directionality and very effective sound effects editing. Dialogue is clean, well positioned and easy to hear (though of course you'll probably be reading the subtitles). Underscore and effects are very well mixed into the 5.1 track and it provides a very cinematic experience throughout The Man from Nowhere.
