Traitor Blu-ray
Starz / Anchor Bay | 2008 | 114 mins | Rated PG-13 | Dec 16, 2008
Traitor(2008)Drama | Thriller     When straight arrow FBI agent Roy Clayton heads up the investigation into a dangerous international conspiracy, all clues seem to lead back to former U.S. Special Operations officer, Samir Horn. A mysterious figure with a web of connections to terrorist organizations, Horn has a knack for emerging on the scene just as a major operation goes down. The inter-agency task force looking into the case meets with Carter, a veteran CIA contractor who seemingly has his own agenda and Max Archer, a fellow FBI agent. The task force links Horn to a prison break in Yemen, a bombing in Nice and a raid in London, but a tangle of contradictory evidence emerges, forcing Clayton to question whether his quarry is a disaffected former military operative -- or something far more complicated. Obsessed with discovering the truth, Clayton tracks Horn across the globe as the elusive ex-soldier burrows deeper and deeper into a world of shadows and intrigue. For more details about Traitor on Blu-ray, see the Traitor Blu-ray Review Starring: Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Saïd Taghmaoui, Neal McDonough, Aly Khan Director: Jeffrey Nachmanoff Traitor Blu-ray, Video Quality  Traitor infiltrates Blu-ray with a high quality 1080p, 2.35:1-framed transfer. The film features that bright, overblown, washed out look that so many newer films, particularly those dealing with the Middle East (like The Kingdom) seem to employ. Also like these other films, the look transfers well to Blu-ray. Some detail is washed out, but many shots exhibit an almost breathtaking level. Many of the unkempt, dirty exteriors of Yemen seen early in the film absolutely sparkle with lifelike translation on 1080p Blu-ray; worn doors, broken tile, cracked mortar, and chipped paint, all make for a pleasing, high quality watch that adds to the tension and gritty nature of the film. A sometimes non-too-subtle layer of grain also aids in creating the intended look. Close-up shots of actors also reveal an excellent level of detail and texture. Several overhead cityscape shots, for example one of Chicago in chapter nine, offers breathtaking clarity; the shot could not have looked any better if the viewer were flying overhead in real life. The darkest corners of various frames feature excellent blacks, though some of the film's darker scenes buzz with plenty of noise. All in all, Traitor is another fabulous looking disc from Starz. Traitor Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Starz sends Traitor to Blu-ray with a quality Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. The track is never over-the-top explosive nor finely tuned with the most subtle nuances pouring into the listening area, but it is more than sufficient where it needs to be. An explosion in the opening moments of the film just might scare listeners out of their seats; it packs a volatile punch that rattles the chest cavity and scatters the pets for good measure. Most of the film's bass is limited to a few select action sequences, but it delivers when called upon. An assault on the Yemeni prison camp in chapter seven offers excellent directional effects, real-sounding (and feeling) explosions, and an accompanying score that plays to excellent effect over the front with a bit of support from the back. Much of the movie is front- and dialogue-heavy, which is delivered naturally and cleanly from the center. There is not much in the way of rear-channel environmental support, though the front speakers carry a nice bit of outdoor atmospherics; blowing wind, chirping birds, and passing cars in the distance help to bring several scenes to life, though there is never a sense of total immersion. All told, the track is above average, but lacks the last bit of detail to take it over the top.
