Yes, hardly a recommendation as practically everyone will have seen it by now. Still, we watched it last night & it was only my 2nd viewing so it must be well over 15 years since I saw it. Brilliant, obviously, but what struck me (apart from the muddy audio) was just how dark it all was. We are fortunate enough to have a brilliant video setup but I imagine that the Bluray (let alone the DVD) must be a real challenge to those with even decent displays.

Anyone tried it & found themselves looking at acres of "black"? I only appreciated the brilliance of the JVC's black response after returning to the UK & watching a film on Mum's TV; at times the screen was ~ 50% BLACK!
