THE MOVIE<\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Gary Hook (JACK O\u2019CONNELL), a young British soldier, is accidentally abandoned by his military unit following a riot on the streets of Belfast in 1971. Unable to tell friend from foe and increasingly wary of his own comrades, he must survive the night alone and find his way to safety through a disorienting, alien, and deadly landscape.<\/p>\n

\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u201971<\/em><\/strong> arrives on DVD through Lionsgate presented with a 2.40 anamorphic widescreen aspect ratio and has that gritty natural golden tint to the coloring. The video itself is alright showing no major signs of artifacts or other ailments.<\/p>\n

The Dolby Digital 5.1 track is standard showing off decent dialogue levels and OK depth when we do get into the more action-centric scenes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Overall, \u201971<\/em><\/strong> is a well made and tight war thriller featuring a nice performance from Jack O\u2019Connell who manages to carry the film fairly well. The DVD released by Lionsgate is basic but good enough providing for fine video\/audio transfers and a decent selection of bonus material.<\/p>\n
