We Go On Blu-ray Movie Review

Lightyear Entertainment is revisiting its previous release of We Go On, touting remastered video and upgraded special effects, while also referring to YellowBrickRoad on its cover, in what may be a ploy to attract additional eyes to this project from the same writing and directing team.

We Go On Blu-ray Movie, Video Quality 

We Go On is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of Lightyear Entertainment with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1. This release is advertised as "remastered" as well as providing "enhanced visual effects". There are some noticeable if not exactly earth shaking differences between this presentation and the older Blu-ray from Lightyear. This one is just slightly darker looking, which at least probably helps the perception of more defined contrast, even if it also may add to a bit of a deficit in shadow detail at times. Color temperatures on both releases are similar to the point of looking identical to me. This is frankly not that heavy of an effects laden film, and so the upgrades here are again minimal and may frankly not even be that discernable at times. My score is 4.25.

We Go On Blu-ray Movie, Audio Quality 

The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track on this disc struck me as identical sounding to the first release, and so I'll repeat my comments from my first review. This is a nice sounding DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track, one which offers at least occasional well done immersion with effects like a panning jet aircraft passing over Miles and Nelson, or a couple of scenes with Miles in a car (either in his dream world or in real life). Several key scenes take place outside, and there is some good attention paid to discrete channelization of ambient environmental effects. Dialogue is rendered cleanly, and Andy Mitton's score often spreads through the surrounds in washes of sound. This disc also offers the LPCM 2.0 track that was featured on the first release, but has omitted the perhaps unnecessary Dolby Digital 5.1 version. Optional English subtitles are available.

We Go On Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

For fans of this particular writing and directing team, this release may provide incrementally better looking video and new commentary material. Technical merits are solid for anyone who may be considering making a purchase.
