Tears of the Sun is presented on Blu-ray with a stunning 1080p, 2.40:1 transfer that showcases vibrant color accuracy, excellent contrast and deep blacks, with detailed textures in both close-ups and wide shots. Despite minor grain and rare imperfections, the overall image clarity and depth create an immersive viewing experience.

Audio: 68

The Tears of the Sun Blu-ray delivers a PCM 5.1 uncompressed soundtrack that impresses with its dynamic range and immersive soundscape, showcasing superb jungle ambiance, clear dialogue, and explosive action sequences—though overall rear-channel activity is limited outside key scenes.

Extra: 47

The Blu-ray extras for 'Tears of the Sun' offer insightful commentaries from Director Antoine Fuqua and screenwriters, delving into the film's themes, real-life inspirations, and production challenges; however, the deleted scenes fail to add to the narrative, and some notable featurettes from the DVD release are missing.

Movie: 73

A deeply emotional War film featuring a superb video and audio Blu-ray presentation, "Tears of the Sun" transcends typical action tropes by exploring the moral conflicts of soldiers facing atrocities, despite some narrative predictability. Bruce Willis and Antoine Fuqua deliver a sincere, albeit brutal, cinematic experience.
