And here's another "courageous" Italian label, not exactly the brightest, its first Blu-ray. And not an any way, you're talking about Metropolis ! So, as he managed, Hermitage, the recently rebuilt master HD? I would say very competent. And I did not think I would have told you that viewed the disc info "MPEG-2 1080i", I had already prepared usual mess. But I must say that it is not the case at all! Although interlaced, there is no trace of serrations and the like, and the transfer was not affected in any way acceleration PAL. I admit that playing, I could not see a difference with the MoC version. The difference is almost nothing on the screen, only appears brighter on a transfer MoC. Strictly personal: here, have often preferred the bolder blacks and marked Ermitage and this satisfies me more than this - the contrast is more clearly defined, in short. For the vision of the MoC, in fact, I had to decrease the brightness to a minimum. Considering, however, that on every TV, depending the settings, the look can vary slightly, is something that should not be considered either merit or defect. All the glory goes of course to the many people behind the restoration of this classic Who would have thought a Metropolis in Blu-ray almost completely rebuilt? Taking compared to other classic joints in Blu-ray, the image can be considered generally good, with some sequences definitissime hard to believe that it is a movie of '20. If this is true, it is also right to point out a video way too soft on many other occasions, a softness which often involves close-ups - it goes without saying, because of the materials. The scenes were recently rediscovered molto facilmente distinguibili, caratterizzate da perenni linee verticali e una qualità molto inferiore. I contrasti sono fantastici, restituiscono perfettamente il concetto di "espressionismo fotografico". Un altro "congratulazioni" al settore sottotitoli che, comparato brevemente con quello inglese, non sfigura affatto; eccellente. Importante far notare anche che i cartelli Ermitage sono quelli originali in tedesco, come quelli Eureka, e non inglesi come quelli della Kino americana (che comunque va boicottata a priori per come si sono comportati). Dunque, essenzialmente, cosa cambia tra le due edizioni? Audio ed extra. Il primo punto è del tutto irrilevante per chi scrive, preferendo i muti non musicati, ma va segnalato che la Eureka MoC include a DTS-HD of the new score, while there are only a Dolby 5.1 sull'Ermitage, but it is great. We find in the extra "document" main, or almost one hour documentary on the reconstruction of the film, quite interesting and recorded in HD, a part of it is dedicated also to record the new soundtrack. On this front, Eureka has a little more (see below).

The new version of the film is released simultaneously on DVD also, but the cost (just the price of Amazon) is practically the same. Of course, even more strongly for that reason, interested in purchasing the BD, a great satisfaction at the end accounts.
