Your Opinions and Comments
The video transfer is average. Some scenes show a compression sign once in a while and other scenes look a bit grainy.
The DD 5.1 soundtrack is disappointing. I was hoping for some nice usage of the surrounds to recreate the atmosphere of the karaoke clubs, but the surrounds are silent most of the time.
The menus are all still.
The extras include a commentary, a behind the scenes look, 3 deleted scones and a multi angle music video.
Bottom line - a boring movie that goes absolutely nowhere. Don`t bother.
