Pretty good story line as well as descent 4K upgrade from the Blu-ray. Disney hasn't put in a lot of extra effort in making sure their 4Ks are the best, but buy for the HDR and WCG upgrade!

Best mini series ever! So fixated on the production value, we watched all 5 episodes in one sitting! Wish they would have put out a 4K but Blu-ray looks pretty good.

Not one of Nolan's finest but watchable!
on December 21, 2019
Posted by: VegasPete
Verified Purchase:Yes
Dunkirk's UHD image is stunningly vivid and refined, with a level of fine detail rarely seen on a home video display. Wherever one looks, the tiniest minutia are vivid and immediate, whether it's the fibers and strands in nautical ropes, the rivets of a Spitfire fusillage as it chases and evades German fighters or the understated patterns in the sweater vest worn by young George, as he tries to do his bit aboard the Moonstone.

Fantastic movie on 4K UHD!

a transfer that is unequivocally one of the finest the UHD format has seen. No source deterioration, no encode flaws, refined and filmic grain and detailing, bold colors, perfect blacks…UHD just doesn't get much better than this.

Not the best looking UHD movie but great movie!
on December 21, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
The sound, of course, is killer on both presentations, a bit more bombastic and immersive here and there on the 4k. And no matter what, you'll wind up thoroughly enjoying one of the most brutal and exciting action films ever crafted.

A class movie, now with a modern picture!
on November 9, 2019
Posted by: VegasPete
Verified Purchase:Yes
Compared to the Blu-ray, it's more stable, more naturally filmic, sharper, and its colors are richer without fundamentally changing the movie's basic and critical tonal foundations alike. This is another top-flight winner of a UHD catalogue release from Sony, the best around!

Huge upgrade from the Blu-ray!
on November 3, 2019
Posted by: VegasPete
Verified Purchase:Yes
Detailing is absolutely superb! The image has a nice dimensionality about it, whether deep in various old Egypt lairs or up on the bright, sun-scorched surfaces. The HDR-enhanced color palette is excellent, one of the best uses of it yet. With the increased sharpness and filmic texturing, this is easily, far-and-away, the most definitive home video presentation of The Mummy yet!

Such wonderful colors!!!!
on September 29, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
The wait was worth it, wow! This is in my top 3 UHD’s, maybe my favourite. I don’t think I’ve seen a more obvious upgrade than this. The cinematographer Richardson’s work has never looked so good. The detail that can be seen through windows, highlights, shadows and white shirts gave my goosebumps. Every sign from restaurants, street signs, buses was easily legible. The detail in clothing, wristwatches, hair, and landscapes is true to life. But the colour, oh the colours... just wow! Dense, vivid and completely natural. The audio is also excellent with lots of air in the HF. It has just the right amount of midrange, never did I miss any dialogue. Music perfectly balanced, mostly front driven. Surround activity doesn’t call attention until it calls for it.
For me, this is about as perfect a home theatre experience I could ask for!
