It got a very poor rating (tier 4) on the HD-DVD, but it's due to the master. It looked to me like there was one camera that was out of focus, so you'd have scenes that were very good, then a cut to a soft scene and back again. Also, the transition scenes and stock footage were poor. These bad scenes did this title in. Heck, they may have looked just like that in the theater. If you like the movie, this is probably as good as it's going to get.

Yep. Skip it. I had it on HD DVD and it's the only title I sold on Ebay. Poor master doesn't translate to good high def viewing.
