It's Fine

The picture quality is fine, it's not much better than the regular blu-ray, and there are a lot of features missing from this release, but it is still pretty decent.

It's Ok
on December 26, 2021
Posted by: JimmyP
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's fine. It was finished in 2K, so there really isn't much to be gained in 4K, and the HDR is fine, but this film is pretty ugly to look at so take with that what you will.

Lionsgate Messes Up Yet Another 4K Release
on December 26, 2021
Posted by: JimmyP
Verified Purchase:Yes
The picture quality is amazing and the sound is good too, but Lionsgate dropped the ball with the special features. They have proven time and time again that they will mess things up whenever they can and they have dropped ALL of the features from their own previous disc release. Why? There is no reason to do so. Pick this up for the picture quality and the find the older release or import it to get the missing features.

Naughty Cut Not So Naughty
on December 26, 2021
Posted by: JimmyP
Verified Purchase:Yes
The film looks really good in 4K despite being finished in 2K. The Naughty Cut is just a bunch of character scenes added in with a few more curse words added as well. All of the scenes added are actually on the 2016 blu-ray if you want to see what they are. The special features are nice.

Four Great Films in One Awesome Collection
on October 31, 2020
Posted by: JimmyP
Verified Purchase:Yes
Predator has been a problem on blu-ray since its first release in 2008, but those problems are solved here. Predator and the rest of the films here look great. We get all of the special features from the various releases throughout the years and the price is right. Don't sleep on this collection as it is owned by Disney and they will pull it without any notice.

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5An impressive budget 4k smart TV
By GoBucks
I've been impressed with this TV so far. For the price, it far exceeded my expectations.
Pros:
- Excellent picture quality with a very bright panel. 4K HDR content looks great.
- Pretty good sound quality for this price point. The sound holds its own against the other 55" 4k smart TV (Vizio) i own that i use a sound bar with. Great highs and mids, but suffers a little with bass levels. Not bad though for a TV without a sound bar.
- Roku OS is fantastic. Adding apps to the home screen is very easy, and i was able to find almost every app i could think of that i normally use to stream TV shows, movies, and sporting events.
Cons:
- If you're looking hard enough, you can notice the panel is brighter around the bezels. Taking the screen off its default 'Bright" setting helps, but you can still tell a lot of the light is coming in from around the edges of the screen.
- There's no way to display the resolution while playing a TV show or movie. Its nice to be able to check whether you're watching in 1080p or 4k.
- The remote is very small with very few buttons, one of them being VUDU. It would've been nice to have a remote that offers more customization as to what app you'd like to go into, but the home, back, and volume buttons are easy to find.

I haven't tried gaming with this TV yet, so am curious how the 60Hz refresh rate holds up. I think we are getting to the point most displays have higher refresh rates, but since this is in the budget category, i wasn't expecting much else.

You should be able to tell the difference between 1080 and 4K. Its a pretty big difference.
