PICTURE QUALITY:
The gloomy look gets in the way of the true HD-feel — many details are absorbed into the darkness. Only actors’ faces look properly crisp.

(5 out of 10 points)

Decent — there’s always sufficient surround action when it gets down to it (for example, as the headless rider gallops up at 38:44).
