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.
The pirate Jack Sparrow is confronted with his past. Thirteen years earlier, he signed a pact with Davey Jones, the evil master of the seven seas. In exchange for his soul, he promised him the command of the mythical Black Pearl... Today, he comes to recover his debt.
Despite less spontaneity and a scenario that loads the boat by multiplying the narrative tracks until more thirsty, the misadventures of the eccentric Jack Sparrow (at the bow, Johnny Depp is at the best of its form) continue in this certainly greying blockbuster (it navigates all sails outside without discontinuing) filled with actions, humor and adventures. To your comrades!
IMAGE - Ocean rum
On the 1st opusThe curse « Disneyian » extends with this UHD HDR10 transfer far from being of first freshness since drawn from the same master that operated on Disney+ (and thus realized rushing for the launch of the platform)... It's very simple, the visual rendering of the Blu-ray is otherwise more pleasant!
The clarity of the image is in no way improved, since the light sources are now much darker (the sun of the Caribbean is no longer than the shadow of itself and only the clouds are better shaped), the colorimetric spectrum has lost its enchantment because it is made baffled by a sepia veil that reduces the primary and the details, regularly accentuated by a strengthening of the obvious contours, are diminished by the use of a DNR coming to erase a large part of the silver grain (which should nevertheless be very present in connection with a Super 35 capture).
However, unlike the « glorious » returned from its elder, the edge enhancement is less coarse and the grain not fully frozen. In fact, it is more potable in motion.
- Will, I'm your father.
Still lacking in aggressiveness (dynamics and bass start timidly at collision) against the previous LPCM 5.1 track (and riding the potash will do nothing), the VO « Dolby Atmouse » space activity (increased surround presence during skirmishes) even though the verticality of mixing is more like a small swell than a storm tide (some ambient sounds and the tentacles of the krake). The dialogues are lively and the music thundering Hans Zimmer Delivered with sufficient magnitude.
Better pledged than in the past because winning two channels behind, the VF Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 (in place of the DTS 5.1 mix) engages with more courage than its 3D friend!
CONCLUSION - The attraction continues...
Curses in slippers, saga Caribbean Pirates returns to adventure with this exciting transition opus. Only here, the hull of this 4K Ultra HD being damaged (the A/V services take water), the ship must stay at dock!
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
