Review
Michel Hafner (3 February 2001):
This new DVD of Se7en has been mastered directly from the original negative. There is no better film master. Is the result as good as this sounds?
The camera negative used is clean and image steadiness is very good. Anything else would be a surprise in this context.
The whole film has been regraded in the digital domain using a high definition transfer from that camera negative. This allows incredible precision of color and contrast rendering. So much that the director now says that the original master of this film that shows his vision is the digital HDTV version this DVD has been mastered from, and not any previous master used for making 35mm prints. So color and contrast rendering are as by the director's wishes. And these days the possibilities for manipulation are basically endless, as the supplement about the video transfer very nicely demonstrates. It would be pointless to criticise color and contrast rendition of this disc. And I see no need to. It looks great.
Images are sharp, no wonder. If optimal sharpness is not always available it might be due to some noise filtering.
Fine film grain is often visible, but it looks film-like and is not destracting at all.
If one wants to find fault with this DVD's image quality it's as usual in the video artifacts department where some issues can be addressed. Slight noise filtering artifacts are visible at times. Less slight ringing is present around many high contrast edges, suggesting some use of edge enhancement. Fine image detail is occasionally a bit jittery and flickering, lacking that rock-steadiness you can see when everything is 100% optimal. And there is some aliasing in a couple of shots. None of these are distracting, but clearly visible on a good progressive display.
Compression uses a very high average bit rate and the results are first rate.
This DVD offers film-like pictures, often close to or approaching reference quality. Especially some close-ups are breathtaking. It will look superior on any kind of display that can handle dark material properly.
You also get several running commentaries and there are plenty of good quality supplements on a second disc.
This edition is worth every penny. Highly recommended.
