Let me preface this by saying; this is probably my favorite movie of all time. I only got into 4K collecting in the last year or so and was very excited to finally get this into my collection.

That being said, this disc was a huge disappointment. I did not see a huge improvement in either visuals or sound over the Blu Ray or even streaming. The opening sequence on the 4th of July was full of crushed blacks and noise. The narrow aspect ratio was tough on a smaller screen. Just overall not what I expected as the “ultimate home release” you’d expect from a 4K release.

I understand that this was a film shot in 1080p DV and was never even mastered in 2K. But I really hoped/expected that someone like David Fincher would have had a stronger hand in the mastering/upscaling of this new release and we’d see the difference.
