Strange, for me cd2 looks to be lower video quality than cd1. I only skimmed through it but from what I watched on cd1, was sharp, clear and good color saturation on a tv. switched over to cd2 and it looked washed out and lacking the sharpness I saw with cd1, was softer/blurrier.
this is the typical telecine, dont expect a crank or everyone's hero one, but considering its only a month after its release in theatres i'll take this quality any day over the sea of blurry barely watchable TS's we've gotten.
in regards to the audio, its not bad but not great either. at the beginning I had a hard time hearing what people were saying as the mixing was poor, the crowd background noise almost completely drowned out the person talking.

video - 7(cd1) - 6(cd2)
audio - 6
movie - ? only watched the beginning and end, looks messed up, dont watch the beginning on a full stomach

Wow, I haven't watched the whole thing because I don't have time right now but what I saw from sampling both CD's looks awesome.

9/8/?

Video is crisp, with vibrant colors and aspect ratio seems good (overcropping, if any, was minimal). Only blemish I can find is a bit of extra grain in dark scenes and some oversaturation, but I'll take those flaws over a picture that's too dark or too bright.

Sound is very clear with little to no "white noise" in the background. A little hollow, but that's nitpicking.

Haven't seen the movie as stated earlier but I loved the book and the actor who plays Jean-Baptiste Grenouille looks just like what I'd imagined the character would look like when I read the novel. I'll save this for the weekend.
