Recommended to animation buffs only.

For animation buffs, this is stunning artwork and animation. The story is interesting as well, but the over emotions that the characters exude made me wince and diminished it's intentions. Would I recommend this to a friend, if they are an animation buff: yes; but for anyone else, I'd be wary.

Disney/Fox releases a winner!
on May 21, 2021

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm glad that Disney is finally releasing it's Fox acquisition titles to 4K and this looks and sounds fantastic - it's also great that Fox retained the original 5.1 sound mix that earned the movie an Academy Award and did not Atmos the mix.

Tim Burton's wildly imaginative drama stars Albert Finney as Edward Bloom, a dying eccentric known for spinning larger-than-life tales of his exploits as a young man. When his estranged son (Billy Crudup) returns home to see him, Bloom regales him with a host of outlandish stories, seen in flashbacks, that are so utterly unbelievable that they may just be true. With Jessica Lange, Alison Lohman, Helena Bonham Carter, Danny DeVito, and, as Finney's younger self, Ewan McGregor. 125 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

The magic of Tim Burton's 'Big Fish' in 4K

Sony's transfer is the best it's looked on home video, very filmic. The Dolby Atmos is lovely and wraps it's magic around and above you to spellbinding effect! Highly recommended!

The fairy tale world mined by Disney films for decades gets turned on it's ear in this hit computer-animated romp from Dreamworks. In order to rid his swampland home of the exiled fantasy characters overrunning it, a green-skinned, anti-social ogre named Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers) makes a deal with nasty Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) to rescue a princess (Cameron Diaz) held captive in a dragon-guarded castle. Joining Shrek on his comical quest is a wisecracking donkey named Donkey (Eddie Murphy). 91 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English DTS X, Dolby TrueHD 7.1, DVS Dolby Digital 5.1, Spanish DTS 5.1, Dolby Digital 5.1, French DTS 5.1, Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Spanish; featurettes; deleted scenes; audio commentary; music videos; bonus InchThe Adventures of Puss in BootsInch episodes; more. Three-disc set.

Good job Universal!

Universal worked with what they had, given the source is 2K, it's not bad, the HDR color grading looks lovely; but it's the DTS-X soundmix that is aurally fun!

Lionsgate hit this out of the ballpark - excellent picture quality and outstanding Dolby Atmos remix that is both eerie and scary.

The film that started the "summer blockbuster" trend, director Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Peter Benchley's novel is a masterpiece of action and suspense. The New England resort town Amity Island is terrorized by a man (and woman)-eating great white shark, and it's up to the local police chief (Roy Scheider), a marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss), and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) to stop the feeding frenzy. With Lorraine Gary, Murray Hamilton; features a classic score by John Williams. 124 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks English Dolby Atmos, DTS HD 7.1 Master Audio, DTS Surround mono, French DTS HD High Resolution Audio 7.1, DTS 5.1, Spanish DTS 5.1; Subtitles English (SDH), French, Spanish; featurettes; deleted scenes; outtakes; storyboards; photo gallery; theatrical trailer; 44-page booklet. Two-disc set.

Universal's stellar release of a classic!
on July 24, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
As par the course, Universal's release and 4K transfer of one of their highest grossing and extremely popular movies gets the makeover it deserves. The image for this release is the best it's looked on home video, and the Atmos mix which may be a bit extreme for a movie that essentially went out in mono sound in 1975, John William's score benefits greatly from an even wider room filing aural dimensionality. A+ Universal ! highly recommended!
