There are a few options depending on your setup or tolerance level. For me, I no longer own a 3D Blu-ray player or TV so I could not watch using the BD3D Polorized version and the Red\/Cyan 3D absolutely hurts my eyes with only a couple minutes of having them on. So this rating is for the 2D version and as such, it\u2019s a fine transfer I suppose but some of the distant shots were a bit fuzzy while close-ups at least were halfway decent.<\/p>\n<p>The movie comes with a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 Stereo and 5.1 track. For the most part both of these are pretty impressive; dialogue comes through with fine clarity and really didn\u2019t detect any obvious pops, hisses or other ailments. There\u2019s also some decent depth for the 5.1 option though nothing overly powerful.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/images4.imagebam.com\/84\/46\/70\/MEAHGFQ_o.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"border-screencapture aligncenter\" title=\"Treasure of the Four Crowns\" src=\"https:\/\/images4.imagebam.com\/84\/46\/70\/MEAHGFQ_o.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Check out some more 1080p screen caps by going to page 2.
