Verdict: The disc does unfortunately not offer any good extras, but to have the movie in this quality is alone a pretty good thing. And the movie is really good. Get it before someone else does. | * Verdict: The disc does unfortunately not offer any good extras, but to have the movie in this quality is alone a pretty good thing. And the movie is really good.
