Title: A shameful disgrace to consumers/supporters of BLURAY
Review: I have seen both Gladiator and Braveheart on blu-ray as of street date Sep 2. I watched Braveheart first and was pleased with the natural film like quality of the transfer and the amazing level of detail, kudos on Braveheart! Gladiator, on the other hand, was a disappointment in all areas. When the level of detail is taken to this extreme with DNR and EE it results in a very artificial and harsh picture. This is the case with Gladiator. So extreme is the "scrubbing" of this film that actual parts of the movie are missing, as reported. This is unacceptable. Any QC could have easily spotted this before production. To make matters worse, this is part of their "Sapphire series" which apparently means...we dont care, just give us your money you idiots. Not me...not a chance. Not until this is is re-issued and confirmed. Shame on you Universal and Paramount.
Is the review positive or negative?
