Point Break

Video: 9/10
Audio: 9/10

Much more solid than I was anticipating! A few shots here and there are oddly soft, but detail for the most part is excellent(it always much more clearly identifies the stunt doubles on surf boards ), I can't imagine this one looking any better. The surround was suprisingly lively, and music of the score is well reproduced, holding up quite well.

Gangs of New York

Video: 7/10
Audio: 9/10

It was a stretch giving it a 7. For the most part detail is good, it can just be hard to notice through the EE. Grain is heavy throughout, but I remember that being part of the theatrical experience. This is the second worst transfer I've seen to HD(Lethal Weapon 2 and it's massive jaggies holding the title), but still an improvement over the DVD. On my set up on a 147in screen, the DVD is completly unwatchable(one of the few DVDs that is), at least this isn't. The audio is a nice upgrade. I wonder if this will ever get the proper treatment it deserves.

I'd call it reference quality, might be MPEG-2, but it looks absolutely untouched in terms of DNR or EE. It really sets the bar that all '80s actioners should reach or surpass.

Yeah, I thought it looked really good too for a title that is over 20 years old.

Something about The 6th Day just ain't right. Can't point my finger at it... maybe its the EE & very minor DNR but some shots easily look like a 4 star transfer.. I guess consistency in image quality fluctuates a lot. The audio lacked punch. Dynamic compression maybe the cause but thats my only real complaint for the audio.
