VIDEO QUALITY:
The video is a 1080p AVC presentation that was filmed digitally. To get a a more seamless look to it, all of the filmmakers involved used only one cinematographer. The images are sharp with some nice detail of the intricacies in the scenes. The shadowy scenes don’t come through as well. The colors are bright and even have some boldness to them.
AUDIO QUALITY:
The audio is a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix that has a busy sound from all of the channels. Crowded streets and other areas load the channels with ambient sound. The dialogue is well prioritized along with the music as well as the effects.

THE BOTTOM LINE:
I’m not sure of BERLIN, I LOVE YOU would make more sense if I had seen the previous films in the series but the movie is just kind of flat. It just sort of happens and goes through the motions until the end. The audio and video transfers are very nice. Other than the trailers, there are no extras included. Overall, is you’re a fan of the series, give this one a shot.
