Furious over her plans, Syd crashes the party with his dealer (JASON STATHAM) in tow, hoping to stop his ex-love from leaving town &#8211; no matter what the cost.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>SPECIAL FEATURES \u2013 0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td id=\"review-content2\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No features were included even though the old DVD had a commentary, featurettes and deleted scenes.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\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\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d.img.vision\/moviemansguide\/london01.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"border-screencapture aligncenter\" title=\"London\" src=\"https:\/\/d.img.vision\/moviemansguide\/london01.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>VIDEO \u2013 3\/5, AUDIO \u2013 3\u00bc\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td id=\"review-content2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mill Creek Entertainment releases <strong><em>London<\/em><\/strong> onto Blu-ray for the first time, at least in North America, with a 1080p high-definition transfer and in the original 2.35 widescreen aspect ratio. This transfer was likely provided by Sony and shown as is with no work done. While I think this might\u2019ve been a slight improvement over the DVD, the transfer does present some problems with detail being fine but not terribly sharp. Colors aren\u2019t great however that\u2019s not about the transfer but instead how it was shot as it is a dark drama-romantic flick.<\/p>\n<p>The movie has been given a DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 track which was serviceable enough given it is a dialogue heavy movie to begin with. There is some decent depth with the soundtrack, however otherwise this is a basic lossless track.<\/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:\/\/d.img.vision\/moviemansguide\/london11.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"border-screencapture aligncenter\" title=\"London\" src=\"https:\/\/d.img.vision\/moviemansguide\/london11.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.
