Vengeance: A Love Story Blu-ray Review

Score: 43

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

Vengeance: A Love Story's interesting elements are marred by exploitative content and lackluster performance from Cage, with adequate video but only lossy audio.

Vengeance: A Love Story on Blu-ray features a competent AVC encoded 1080p transfer at 1.85:1. The release, marked by a neutral color palette and sound natural flesh-tones, lacks demo potential but maintains crisp definition and clarity throughout. Outdoor scenes impress, however, nighttime sequences can appear slightly murky.

Audio: 50

The Blu-ray of 'Vengeance: A Love Story' from MVD Visual and FilmRise features only lossy audio options, including Dolby Digital 5.1 and 2.0. Despite the lack of a lossless track, the surround mix offers clean dialogue, dynamic directional cues, and a nuanced score, though it might have sounded even better in lossless format.

Extra: 2

Trailer in HD impresses with 1080p clarity over 2 minutes and 26 seconds.

Movie: 41

Despite a veteran cast and some suspenseful moments, 'Vengeance: A Love Story' falters with a rote screenplay, contrived trial scenes, and Nicholas Cage’s aloof performance, ultimately rendering it a generic revenge thriller with missed potential for deeper socio-economic commentary and emotional depth.
