The One(2001)
A cop must fight his evil double from a parallel universe in order to save himself and the world. For more about The One and the The One Blu-ray release, see The One Blu-ray Review published by Greg Maltz on March 31, 2009 where this Blu-ray release scored 2.0 out of 5. Starring: Jet Li, Carla Gugino, Delroy Lindo, Jason Statham, James Morrison, Dylan Bruno Director: James Wong » See full cast & crew The One Blu-ray, Video QualityThe video presentation of The One is very accurate and detailed. Contrast is good, black level is spot-on and colors are rendered a touch on the clinical side, which is common for Sony transfers that tend to gravitate to yellow and cyan prominence. But it doesn't detract from the overall color balance or heat and skin tones appear more accurate than the recently reviewed Seven Pounds from Sony. As usual, no sign of edge enhancement or black crush are visible. Overall, The One boasts a very modern, clean look, with only moderate signs of film grain. The detail and inky blacks generate good depth and accurate textures in clothes, hair and skin. While the definition is welcome and blows away the DVD version, it comes at a price. Yulaw's hokey expressions, which looked even a bit fierce in the standard definition NTSC versions showed his facial expression more clearly, revealing that he appears like he is trying to have a bowel movement when viewed in the 1080p transfer. The increased resolution also reveals some limitations of the sets. Some of them look fine, but others appear rather cheaply constructed. On the plus side, we get to see Carla Gugino, who delivers the eye candy. The One Blu-ray, Audio QualityThe audio presented in Dolby TrueHD 5.1 is smooth and crisp, with vocal timbres delivered with good detail and clarity. The score by Trevor Rabin and songs in the soundtrack are presented with a lush midrange and taught bass. The song choice is somewhat odd for a sci fi movie: "Bodies" and "Sinner" performed by Drowning Pool, "Down With The Sickness" performed by Disturbed, "Train Of Dreams" performed by Jesse Dayton, "Knock Three Times" performed by Tony Orlando & Dawn, "There's A Moon Out Tonight" performed by The Capris, "Blood Brothers" and "Last Resort" performed by Papa Roach, "Awake" performed by Godsmack and "Papercut" performed by Linkin Park. It's an odd assortment, but oddly it becomes the best thing about the movie behind the fight scenes. Treble appears detailed and extended with good bass slam during the few moments where it really matters. Strong LFE content exists in a few scenes such as car chases. The surround field is also engineered well, with conservative use of surrounds. Blu-ray bundles with The One (1 bundle)
