I give the 4k Graphics a 4.3 out of 5
on July 29, 2019

Verified Purchase:Yes
A 4.3 for a movie that was made in 1994 is definitely reasonable. Instantly I was able to tell that this movie is 4K from when little forest was walking to the school and his foot got caught in the gutter. There is a fair amount of grain throughout the movie, but there are definitely parts that Will make you smile and give appreciation for having 4K in your home! The amount of grain is comparable To the amount of grain in Saving Private Ryan, but it is never overwhelming and you will definitely be able to look past the grain for the appreciation of the 4K graphics. However, the 4K graphics in Saving Private Ryan are absolutely incredible and the sound is better as well.
If you can look past some grain you'll definitely be More than pleased purchasing Forrest Gump in 4K.

The 4k Graphics are atrocious!

I was rather disappointed with the 4k Graphics on the Fast & Furious #4 movie. I'm not aware of the difference between this movie being transferred as opposed to their other 4k movies, but for some reason this movie has tons of grain throughout the entire movie! Moreover, There were only 2 small scenes that were probably about 4 seconds each where I was even able to tell that it is a 4K movie. I'm serious, the movie was so grainy that it reminded me of a DVD. The original's graphics are much better than #4. I can understand why someone might still want to purchase this movie because they want to complete their series in 4k, but I'm Just letting you know that you are going to be extremely disappointed with the graphics in number 4.

The 4k is incredible!

I Have rarely said that any older movie has been incredibly enhanced by 4K, but this movie is definitely the exception! I am very impressed with the clarity and the HDR aspects of this movie. There May be a little bit of static in a few picture frames, but you'll ignore it because of how impressed you'll be with the brightest of brights and darkest of dark colors ; HDR !

4k has a fair amount of static...However,

There is definitely a lot of static On the 4K disc, but there are also moments where the HDR really shows how beautiful the picture is. I definitely had to make a few attempts of adjusting the settings to get the picture just right. Once I was able to make the best adjustments there were instances where I was really impressed with how the picture looked ,especially at night. The 4K is hands down better than the Blu-Ray, but unfortunately there is still a fair amount of static throughout the movie.

Static throughout entire 4k movies
on July 14, 2019
Posted by: ButteryPOPcorn
Verified Purchase:Yes
In my opinion if a movie has static picture frames then it CAN NOT receive a perfect 5 4k picture quality. I can definitely tell that the movie has improved with the picture quality, but there is static in every single frame! After spending more than 30 minutes adjusting the picture ratios I was able to finally concentrate on watching the movie instead of regretting purchasing another older movie. On the upside, I purchased the 4k steal book for only $15!
