Video 5/5
OK, since I'm not too familiar with the technical jargon (plus I already used up all of my good SAT words on the intro) I'll just tell you this--it looks great! Compared to the scratchy, washed out DVD version, GitS 2.0 is vibrant colorful, and incredibly sharp.
Audio 5/5
Big explosions, loud cars, booming um...booms? It sounds great. The same care that was given to sharpening the video transfer went into the audio as well.
Extras...depends
The Anime purists out there will undoubtedly turn their collective noses up at the thought of their precious Ghost in the Shell undergoing an unnecessary facelift. However, with the advent of HD technology--a lot of the CG content that was added doesn't detract from the experience but makes the film seem more polished and just fits in better than the archaic computer generated effects that were present in the original. If you can overlook this, the wealth of new effects and content added makes GitS feel like a whole new movie.
I highly recommend picking this up if you're an Anime fan, or if you just want to show off your shiny new Blu Ray player to a room full of your envious friends.
In nearly every scene, the colors look deeper and more genuine than the original print.. there is alot more simulated depth of field, not only from newly inserted visuals, but just from some clever color and contrast tweaks.
And NO, I have no qualms with the added CGI elements. Mamoru Oshii approved all of them, and Oshii's ever reiterated themes in the series has always been disassociation, dehumanization and the philosophy of making dolls in human form... so for this viewer, having a few scenes where Major Kusanagi is re-visualized in an even more stylized and antiseptic digital shape doesn't bother me at all. It's the whole point of her character.
The cropping that appears in some shots bothered me a little, but I get the feeling this wasn't done because it looked good, but because there wasn't another way to fix or alter color timing in the frame without it.
The collector in me would also have preferred if the original cut of the film was included on a separate disc, but at the same time, as it's just a HD rip of the original film that I've seen a bazillion times anyway, it's not a deal breaker.
I'm happy with this version.
