Top 5 UHD catalog release!
on September 22, 2019
Posted by: VegasPete
Verified Purchase:Yes
Finished watching the theatrical cut. I’ll echo what others are saying, this is a gorgeous presentation; grain, color grading, black levels (the shadows for meeting Kurtz is just right), and highlights were faultless to me. The UHD will be my preferred viewing from here on out! If there’s one thing I would find as a fault it’s the exclusion of the additional audio options that aren’t on the UHD. This release is one of the best of the year!!!!

Excellent image for an underrated movie!

This was a fine looking 4K (for the most part). Good use of subtle HDR but did notice a hint of macroblocking in the skies though. Other than that, I think Universal did a good job with it and I liked how it looked. It was also a fun adventurous movie worth the blind buy. Reminded me a lot of a Mad Max movie but on water!

Like watching a brand new movie!

A classic brought to life again with a brand new 4k scan as well as a beautifully applied HDR layer! With this new clarity, the famous line "My God, it's full of stars" takes on new meaning!

Steven Spielberg's WWII epic has been hailed as a senses-shattering, realistic depiction of war, telling the emotional story of a no-nonsense U.S. Army captain (Tom Hanks), who, after facing the horrors of Omaha Beach on D-Day, receives orders to lead his troops on a search somewhere in Normandy for Private James Ryan, a lost paratrooper whose three brothers had been killed in combat. Also stars Edward Burns, Tom Sizemore, Barry Pepper, Vin Diesel, and Matt Damon as Ryan. 169 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

One of the best 4K movies in my collection (currently at 75) as far as content and visual eye candy! Inky blacks, excellent grain and spectacular HDR make this a must own!
