THERE'S A NEW REASON TO BE AFRAID OF THE DARK. A sci-fi/horror sleeper hit that birthed a franchise and launched the career of a new action movie icon, Pitch Black holds it's own today as a nerve-shredding creature-feature in which the monsters outside finally meet their match against a monster within. When an intergalactic transport ship crashes on a remote desert planet with no sign of help on the horizon, the survivors, led by Fry (Radha Mitchell), band together to find a way back home. Among the passengers is Riddick (Vin Diesel), a convicted murderer being transported by marshal Johns (Cole Hauser) - and now freed of his chains and on the loose. But as a solar eclipse plunges the planet into total darkness, a threat even worse than Riddick reveals itself, and the last humans standing may have to form an uneasy truce with the cunning fugitive (whose eyes have been surgically altered to see in the dark) to last the long night. Boasting crackerjack direction and a whip-smart script by David Twohy, as well as a star-making performance by Diesel, Riddick's first outing is freshly unleashed in an illuminating, brand new 4K restoration, with hours of exclusive bonus content.

Pitch Black

Beautiful 4K Dolby Vision upgrade. Great science fiction horror film. Breakout performance from Vin Diesel. Great cast. Tons of extras. No digital copy which was a bummer, but it wasn’t advertised to have it so can’t blame them. Now let’s get the other two Riddick films on 4K.

I was hoping this would be a good budget 4K tv similar to Vizio’s low end 4K tv’s and found completely lacking in the most important part of your tv. Picture quality. It has a good interface and the Alexa voice control is nice, but that all doesn’t matter if your picture is crappy. If your going for a quality budget tv I would recommend Vizio.

Great deal. Beautiful steel book. The films look fantastic and with only basic HDR10. That’s because it’s REAL 4K and not upscaled 2k di.

Take movie nights to the next level with this 5.1.2 VIZIO home theater sound system. It has Dolby Atmos technology built-in, so sound seems to come from all around you, and a six-inch powerful subwoofer creates thumping bass you can feel. This VIZIO home theater sound system has a main sound bar that produces rich, clear audio.

Haven’t seen the 1080p Blu Ray version, but this is definitely worth the upgrade to 4K. HDR is great as well as the DTS: X surround sound.

Great picture. Dolby Vision HDR is amazing. Now with the recent software update it has the competing HDR format HDR10+. As far as I know Vizio is the only tv in the US market to have both in one tv.Suck it Samsung.JK lol. Only downside and it’s not much of one is the sound. Only ok but that’s fine if your tv is in a bedroom. Would absolutely recommend.

Incredible picture
By Sparky19692
The only reason for not giving this 5 stars is the smart interface. it is slow and they really dropped the ball on Disney+.
The picture I could not be happier with, This TV is located in a bright room and we have none of the issues our last set did with reflections. The Picture is very crisp, colors pop!I have not noticed any blooming. Picture quality is on par with sets that a twice the price.

Disney Plus

Guessing you don’t have an iPhone? You can watch Disney Plus by Apple air play or casting.

Let~s start with a quick round up. This is the best all-round TV. Hands down. Movies, gaming, sports... it~ll handle anything you can throw at it and look great doing it (try not to actually throw stuff, it~s just a figure of speech). No surprise when it~s got 4K resolution, Quantum Dot Color, Dolby Vision HDR, 120Hz native panel, Full Array Local Dimming Zones, anti-glare panel and powerful 1,500 nit peak brightness. What does all that mean? It~s like gazing at the sun melting into the Mediterranean Sea from Ibiza~s coolest bars. But sitting on your couch. At home. Then for gaming, we added Variable Refresh rate, Auto Low Latency Mode and FreeSync Premium to make the most of the latest generation gaming platforms. Even if you don~t know what half this stuff means, one look at the picture and you~ll want it.

Please, Hisense, improve your app support
By U86TVowner
The picture and sound alone deserves a 5 star rating. The reason for only 3 stars is due to both lack of and, limited use of Android apps to match the capability of the ULED TV. Specifically, an app available on my Samsung Android phone to watch TV through my cable/internet provider is no where to be found. This is true for many other Google Play Store apps.
The biggest, and unpleasant, surprise was the unavailability of UHD (4K) movies I have purchased on both MoviesAnywhere and, VUDU, which are limited to HDX (1080p) on this TV. MoviesAnywhere at least gives a link to find out why this is happening. Regardless of the reason, Hisense needs to get this fixed ASAP. Once they do, this rating will go up to the 5 stars it deserves.

Vudu and Movies Anywhere are not available in 4K HDR, but you can add a streaming device like Roku to fix that.
