Movie
It's only 2 days from the year 2000, and there has never been more crime. Ralph Fiennes is a former-cop-turned-street hustler. He has the new drug for the new millenium. It's a hat-like device you place on your head. What it does is let's you take part in another person's memory in their lives. If one person robbed a bank, you could play that disc and be "in their shoes" if you wanted an adrenaline rush. As Fiennes puts it, it's "better than tv and then some".

Disc
Though not a special edition, this one offers more than the usual Fox fair. There are 2 deleted scenes, which are in not so good shape, so they're hard to look at. Also included is a nice teaser trailer. Audio commentary sums up the rest. Of course, the transfer is not anamorphic, but the video is still fantastic. There are only a couple of "spots" that I noticed, but the rest of the film is great to look at. Being a very dark film, blacks are solid. The audio is just fine as well. The film features a pounding soundtrack, so the bass is in full effect.

Overall
You should probably rent this one first. The film is a tad long, but it does have alot of bright spots.
