Still dipping back into my DVD collection:
Still a fantastic film and a few dodgy effects apart it will always remain in my top 10. However the DTS mix on this ultimate edition is piss poor.
One of the first crop of DVD's I bought back in 2001 and it's still in the limited silver Metal tin. The extended version is probably a little too superflous but still a great movie and the sound and PQ are outstanding.
Nowhere near as bad as people made out and the bleak ending is truly chilling. The crane ride is a brilliant piece of action. The second disc of extras is very disappointing.
I'm not a big Sc Fi fan but this still blows my socks off. Even if you dislike the hallucinogenic visuals towards the end (which I do), the technical aspects of the film are superb and some sequences still astonish over 40 years later.
