WORK - A family without the cockroach
Freshly graduated from university, Jaime Reyes returned home, full of ambitions, but he discovered that the situation had changed since he left. As he seeks his place in the world, destiny mixes: Jaime is by chance in possession of the Scarabee, an ancient relic of alien biotechnology that chooses to make Jaime its host...
Intended to the HBO platform before being promoted to the big screen, the Spider-Man Latin America and the Caribbean Xolo Maridueña charismatic (the series Cobra Kai) we arrive in an origin story although generic (and predictable) but touching not yielding to the auction (it changes). Correctly realized and sincere in its execution, this honest entertainment with good child humor and solid action (with combos from the game of batton Injustice) is also marked by his love for his Mexican family (which is at the heart of the story). Nice, like his hero.
IMAGE - The big blue ketone
From a 4.5K digital capture, this UHD Dolby Vision transfer is perfectly defined and very colorful and leaves room for the retrowave photography of the chief operator Pawel Pogorzelski Despite a small drop in encoded diet (63 Mb/s of mean) during a sequence bathed in red (a strand of solarization).
The light silver patina added in post-production is reproduced with more elegance, the textures are undeniably refined (details on faces, costumes, accessories and decors), the depth of field extends more (uncontrolled flight between buildings), the dark scenes become more precise because of the increased depth of the blacks (undergrounds on the island) and the high luminance expresses more widely (neon, skyscrapers lighting, energy flows)... For proof, the light peaks can climb up to 1000 nits with an average measured at 580 cd/m2. To shine!
Then there is the case of the colorimetric palette, regulated by the blue and purple shades so 80s, which simply does not (or so little) of the extended colorimetric space offered by the Wide Color Gamut. Fortunately for her, particularly blinking and richly saturated by nature, she remains superb even if limited to the Rec standard. 709 (identical to Blu-ray).
SON - I'm blue Da ba dee da ba di 🎶
Similar, the VO and the VF (whose quality dubbing manages to preserve the atmospheres on the plant) both offered in Dolby Atmos are as powerful as well distributed.
The dynamics do not really play it small strike, the effects abound during the action scenes (explosions, blows, shots), the spatialization of the sound is optimal, the rear activity is not lacking in dexterity (the violent winds of the Arctic tundra, the assault of the armed commando of Kord Industries on the house of the Reyes, the confrontations against Conrad Carapax), the height channels regularly illustrate (inaugural flight, aircraft), the music of the The Haxan Cloak (Midsommar) resonates everywhere and the LFE channel strongly supports the whole.
CONCLUSION - The umpteenth DCption?
Far from the repeated artistic failures of The film world DC (Wonder Woman 1984, The Flash), this superheroic adventure with refreshing carelessness that should survive (or not) the ruins of the DCEU to join the franchise DC Universe (chapeauted by James Gunn), benefits from a 4K Ultra HD edition with well soaked A/V features!
