Title: Blu-Ray Version Suffers from Jittery Picture
Review: Reviews of the movie aside, I was disappointed to see that the transfer of this movie to Blu-Ray actually "jitters" up and down--and not just the earthquake-ish scenes where its supposed to do that. With a 1080 122" screen, it's painfully evident: you can pause the movie and watch the entire picture bob up and down two or three pixels by scanning forward frame-by-frame. The shot where the shadow crosses the World Trade Center is a big offender, but you can even see it during the closing credits. It's almost as if the projector that was used to do the transfer couldn't hold the picture steady from one frame to the next. I have another 20th Century Fox movie that does this during the opening Fox fanfare (Ice Age), but the movie itself is perfectly fine since each frame there is computer animated. Movies from other distributors seem to be fine, but watching this one on a large home theater screen can quickly get annoying.
Is the review positive or negative?
