Negative Positive
Title: The sound quality is horrible
Review: I loved ID4 in the theater, and have been anxiously awaiting the DVD release. My poor rating is not for th film itself, but for the production of the DVD. The sound is mixed oddly. When something blows up, or jets fly, the sound is QUIETER than when people are talking. These effects should be louder. If you turn up your system to hear the effects the way you would like to, the next scene in which people are just talking ends up being way too loud. I guess the movie was mixed this way to prevent TV speakers from popping, but I have a mid-to-high-end system, and this just really bites. I was so disgusted with the sound that I turned off the movie, and will be returning the DVD to Best Buy for a refund (hopefully). I observed this same effect on the movie Event Horizon
