Verified Purchase:Yes

Platoon is one of the best war films of the 1980s, winning the much deserved Best Picture Academy Award. Having seen it theatrically and a few various home video editions from tape to laserdisc, DVD to Blu-Ray, when I heard a new 4K restored disc supervised by Oliver Stone was coming, I was elated. However, my disappointment set in when it became apparent the transfer was encoded with digital noise reduction, resulting in a waxy, artificial looking image that betrays the grittier look of earlier presentations. Missed opportunity for what could have been a really great release!

Not my favorite war movie from the 80's. It is a good movie though. The quality for the video and audio is exceptional for this Blu Ray.
