I'm in the minority who was a bit disappointed with the Atmos. All speakers are heavily utilized creating a nice bubble of sound. And the bass is constant & intense, which is really fun But there were A LOT of missed opportunities for panning effects. It's a very static mix with surprisingly little object movement, panning, or discrete audio. So many instances where objects are flying across the screen or towards the listener and you dont hear a thing lol. This can be explained by the loudness of the tornado & rumbling bass, but I wouldve liked a more dynamic mix.

There are exceptions though. The cow scene is always fun, as you hear it mooing across your room from one speaker to the next. And the scene where they return to Jo's Aunt's house after its destroyed is absolutely incredible. You can hear the house creaking all around you. For sure one of the best Atmos scenes I've heard. I don't feel like the entire sound mix got the same attention to detail though.

Overall it's still a great transfer and a must buy. I'd say 8.5 for the sound and 9/10 for the picture (though the fluorescent green in that one scene was a bit overdone & unnatural).

The picture and sound are awesome. Thank you Jan De Bont.

I've seen a few others talking about this disc, but I wanted to see what you think because of what you said in your other review: "what's keeping Warner Brothers from putting this on 4k? If they do, they will be printing money." I knew you were gonna be able to tell us if the new disc was better than the German version, because you loved that version. 😂

I got my copy at a Target store also!!! They had 6 copies of it and the slipcovers were in great condition!!! I think I'm gonna need a bigger

9:41 I didn't like the "goin green" part of this 4K. Thought it was way too dark

[NoVoice]

Yeah reddit of course is where there's the most reported problems, but there are a couple others as well

Except the discs manufactured by WB, distributed by Gruv DON'T work in high end 4K players. 4 different brands of 4K players spanning 6 different models.
And because m$ is inept at a simple pass through feature, don't know about Sony, there are those of us who do NOT use game consoles for watching movies in our home theater set-ups. I've yet to see this movie in its remastered form. 3, THREE different orders of this movie, THREE discs, don't work.
And of course the ubiquitous contact is b.s. on WBs website will likely Garner ZERO remedies within the next 50 years, so yeah

I’m still waiting on Amazon to ship my copy! I ordered back in at the beginning of April soon as I saw it up for preorder.

[mackjay]

Agree, the movie is a BLAST! I"m tempted by the 4K...the blu-ray looks pretty ok to me

[shinedown]

Best Atmos ever?! Wow, that’s high praise.
