Houston, we have a problem
Yes, Yes and Yes. This is a great movie to watch in HD. Ron Howard’s Apollo 13 is a great movie, probably one of his best known movies as well.

Visually, HD DVD is an awesome format for this picture. There is significant CGI work, but unlike some movies it is very well done here. There is not much more to say than that this movie looks great in HD.

Audio is the same … sounds awesome in HD. The rockets, explosions, all awesome and perfectly mixed. There is really not much more to say about this, but that this movie is great in HD and highly recommended. As good as it is, It jsut misses the wow factor, that is I would not use this movie to show friends how awesome the HD format is. Not that there is anything wrong, but that the movies on my favorite 5 movies are so much better to demonstrate the format. So this will now be added to the Honorable Mention list.

LHDDVD Rating: 4/5 (Added to Honorable Mention)
Video/Image: 4/5 (Awesome)
