Here's one of the few review ( by Gary Tooze ) that i have found on the net:
(...) Wow - this film is almost 15-years old now!
This is single-layered and doesn't appear to be digitally manipulated (no edge-enhancement or DNR visible). Unfortunately it is the incorrect aspect ratio - it should be 2.35:1 as per the theatrical presentation, Criterion LaserDisc, and New Line Platinum DVD (the latter of which even devoted a featurette to the film's transfer to home video). Alliance "opened up" the Super35 image to full gate, clearly sourcing their master from something prepared for HD broadcast but definitely not going by Fincher's or Khondji's preferred AR. (Thanks Bill!)
The transfer has produced healthy grain visible (like the theatrical). The image quality gives a decent presentation, easily superior to SD-DVD, but might look a shade better with improved compression and dual-layering - I don't know. Detail has a few strong moments in close-up and the bitrate is reasonably low at around 20 Mbps. Daylight scenes are more impressive and colors reflect a pastel noir-like aura (...)
