Not for the faint of heart and genuinely disturbing, "Irréversible" comes to DVD with little in the way of extra material, which is unfortunate given the issues raised by the film.
TECHNICAL FEATURES
Picture Gritty and low in colour, the picture transfer is nevertheless good.
Sound The 5.1 sound mix really makes for stomach-churning listening as the grim music score takes hold of the speakers and puts them through an aural nightmare.
SPECIAL FEATURES
More was to have been featured on this disc, including a documentary, but instead we're left with film notes and trailer galleries. If your French is any good, you can get a two-disc set of Noé's "Irréversible" and "Seul Contre Tous" with two audio commentaries for "Irréversible".
