I was wondering if anybody had any thoughts on the Under Siege dvd from 1997 since I cannot seem to find any good reviews for it. How is the audio and video?
My copy is a flipper (most early Warner titles were), with a P&S version on the other side.The correct definition of a flipper, is when the movie itself spans both side of the disc, and requires the disc to be "flipped" to finish watching the movie. Its true that Warner released the most flippers (Amadeus, GoodFellas, Robin Hood, Sleepers, etc.) however, other studios released them too like Columbia's Das Boot.
Under Siege is, in fact, 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen and is not a true flipper. Yes, it is a DVD-10, but many studios such as Columbia and MGM still release many DVDs on DVD-10s with a widescreen transfer on one side and a full frame on the other.
And like what Dmitry said, the disc isnt perfect, but its certainly watchable. It has a decent 5.1 soundtrack as well. Recommended disc, especially if you can find it in the bargain bin.
