The 1080p AVC-encoded Blu-ray of 'From Paris with Love' boasts bold contrast, deep colors, and three-dimensional acuity, though it falls short in fine detail and full-spectrum vibrancy due to stylistic cinematographic choices. Black levels are well-rendered despite occasional haziness, capturing the filmmaker's intent accurately.

Audio: 67

Lionsgate delivers a full-bodied 7.1 DTS-HD MA soundtrack with dynamic range and immersive surround effects, making "From Paris with Love" an action-packed audio experience. Despite minor dialog issues, the impactful LFE and directional accuracy in the explosive sequences elevate the film’s auditory engagement.

Extra: 50

The Blu-ray extras for 'From Paris with Love' comprise a diverse selection of features, including a comprehensive PiP commentary by director Pierre Morel, a 26-minute making-of featurette, and insightful interviews with former CIA operatives.

Movie: 57

"From Paris with Love" blends Luc Besson’s flair for theatrics with Pierre Morel’s high-octane direction, presenting a thrilling yet preposterous plot driven by John Travolta's magnetic performance as the wild and wisecracking Charlie Wax, complemented by well-designed, action-packed sequences despite occasionally chaotic camerawork.
