It is brought to the attention of our dear readers that, in addition to the specified and used viewing equipment, the rendering may differ from one installation to another, whether or not it is calibrated, as well as personal preferences and expectations may influence notation. Moreover, the images in the article are not representative of the edition tested.
A detective, who investigates a series of large-scale robberies, finds himself in a case involving his missing daughter and a secret government program.
As the memories of cinema mix « Nolanian » (Mento and Inception in mind), this B series uncomplexed and joyfully pulled by the hair mixes the genres (action, thriller and SF) during such a frantic race that one might think that she has death with the kits! Not a big movie in truth but a haunting suspense and high-voltage characters for a tribute to Hitchcock (dixit his real) somewhat scrutinized whose total primary effectiveness keeps the consciousness awake.
IMAGE - Reality or illusion?
Captured digitally in 6K before being finalized in 4K, the tape-to-eye image of the chef op Pablo Berron and the director Robert Rodriguez (Alita: Battle Angel) is beautifully reproduced by this UHD Dolby Vision transfer with really imperturbable encoding (in the image of Ben Affleck).
The slight falsely organic patina is more lively and the details, much sharper than in HD (facial hairiness, skin aging, clothing textures), give the impression that the Blu-ray is blurred (see the precision of the background)... Especially as the visible improvement of the contrast ratio (blacks are richer and whites bolder) increases the three-dimensionality of the planes (the shade and light zones being better defined).
The calibration of the colors which preserves its warm and earthy hues sees its primarys extended (the reds are more intense, the deeper blues and the more pronounced greens) and the light sources display with a great shine (light of day, the neons of the front of the hypnosis, the ceiling lights in the Division premises).
SON - Hear my voice
With a fully controlled spatialization (a fully immersive 3D sound field) and a feverish dynamic (a real acoustic deflagration as soon as the action occurs), this remarkable Dolby Atmos soundtrack is also supported by a powerful LFE channel (the detonations slam, the motors roar and the carambolages go far into the grave). The dialogues are of great clarity, the location of the ambient noises always appropriate (whether they are at the front, the back or the heights) and the musical envelope amply multichannel.
CONCLUSION - Keep your mind awake...
Rhythmed in the absence of being hypnotizing, this thriller psychotic action that urges us to an investigation under mental manipulation has access to a greater lucidity on 4K Ultra HD support; surely because its cutting-edge A/V performances are not the fruit of our imagination!
Nyctalope like Riddick and with a very good hearing, I am ready to jump on physical editions and SVOD platforms. But if the quality isn't on the rendezvous, stop at the bite! #WeLovePhysicalMedia
