All you people whining about the horrible digital cinematography

I watched this again the other night and it's still a good movie. Only this time, I paid more attention to Christian Bale. Very nice. I had no idea they used digital on this but I knew something was slightly "off" about the film quality. Doesn't change the fact that it's totally watchable and well acted.

Looked at some blu ray forums - seems some people had settings on their TVs that created problems which were resolved/greatly reduced when they adjusted them. On that subject, some TVs just make films look terrible whatever the settings.

I'm watching the blu ray for the first time having previously only seen the DVD (many times). I'm witnessing quite a lot of noise in darker scenes. Most of the time it's not a problem as it's absorbed in the movement and dimness and is only very noticeable if you pause. However, when Purvis is visited Baby Face alias Mr. McHenry, the noise artefacts became a bit much on my Samsung 51 inch plasma (viewing from about 8 feet distance). I was watching in Standard picture mode and I switched to Movie mode: problem solved. Not absolutely, but for me, no longer problematic. On the forum I mentioned, some had had their sharpness setting too high and reducing it had resolved the problem. The Samsung Movie mode has sharpness the at 20/100, while Standard is 50/100.
