Story Synopsis:
Van Damme stars as Jack Quinn, the nation’s top anti-terrorist who (take a wild guess) wants to call it quits. But on the eve of his final mission, he misses his target—the enigmatic and dangerous Stavros (Mickey Rourke)—losing everything in a split second. When he realizes his wife and unborn child have become Stavros’ vengeful target, Quinn relies on the one man who can help him—weapons dealer, Yaz (Dennis Rodman).
LaserDisc Picture:
The picture, framed at 2.38:1, is exemplary and is sourced from a Sony High Definition transfer. Color fidelity is superb and exhibits vibrant colors, natural fleshtones and deep blacks. Images are always sharp and detailed for a stunning picture experience.
LaserDisc Soundtrack:
The matrix Dolby® Surround soundtrack is spatial and dynamic with deep, extended bass response. Dialogue spatial integration is excellent and natural sounding. The music score is well recorded with soundstage imaging that is deep and wide. Sound effects are spread wide and are directionalized. This is an exciting sonic experience and is exceptional reference material.
