VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5, AUDIO \u2013 3.75\/5
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Captain from Castile<\/em><\/strong> debuts on Blu-ray through Twilight Time. The film is presented in its original 1.33 full frame aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer and for the most part looks good. Detail is pretty sharp throughout and outside of the minor and occasional dust marks or specs, is mostly clean.<\/p>\n

The included DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0, and 1.0 track for that matter, sounds nice providing for clean and clear dialogue levels while the score gives some minor depth, just nothing extraordinary.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
