It was that the audio quality and audio effects were first rate and, so far, beyond what the reviewer has experienced in his system. Maybe I should have worded the body of the post differently: sorry about that. By the way, 7.1 folds down to 5.1 so you don't need a 7.1 system to experience the soundtrack. It is nice to see a studio take advantage of what Blu-ray can offer regarding the number of channels.
The Transporter series is rock solid action, effects and video mayhem that is sure to get the adrenaline junkie pumped up. This last endeavor raises the bar for the series re: audio and (stylized) video quality.
I especially liked this comment from the reviewer, something that frequent posters on the Film Asylum would know absolutely nothing about:
"I don’t know about you but I don’t watch films like this expecting well rounded scripts, deep characters, and award winning performances. Movies like this require the suspension of belief in realism which allows an escape into a world where pretty much anything is possible in order to achieve the desired goal. The goal of course is mindless entertainment is derived from action based elements that are exciting, physically demanding, thoroughly unbelievable and of course fun to watch."
