Work - Panic on board!

Frank Walsh, hunter for zoos, made a crossing with several of his "takes", among which a very rare white jaguar. When a political murderer escapes from his cabin and releases captive animals, Frank goes hunting...

In sub-regime, the king « jungle » DTV action finds itself prisoner of a Trap on the high seas broken with has-been actors as passengers (Kevin Durand tourism and Famke Janssen fights against botox) and digital bebeasts made. And as the side moves away, the pitch promise (a hunter stuck on a boat with wild animals) is thrown overboard to keep only one face-to-face terribly boring (and already-seen) interspersed with mullasson rifles caused by soldiers who have only chosen the name.

IMAGE - A jaguar in the cargo

With this edition only a single 4K Ultra HD disk, I was unable to make comparisons with its HD counterpart. However, I can say that given the fineness of the details (a capture in Red Epic up to 8K), there is no doubt about the use of a DI 4K.

In short, it seems rather obvious that the definition and the sharp must widen the gap with the Blu-ray. Is it really useful when CGIs are so visible? Not sure no, but the other elements of the framework profit generously. I also found no compressive anomalies while color banding usually appears on this editor's 1080p transfers. Again, there is no doubt that HEVC encoding should score points.

As for the rest, the colorimetric palette bathed in an atmosphere « Maladive yellow » delivers a surprisingly natural carnation and primers full of fergue (the greenery of the jungle, the red safety lighting), and contrasts that are expressive perfectly delineate the shadows (blacks of good bill) of light (light sources including intensity) « betrayed » use of HDR technology).

- Pan! Right in the mile! 🎶

If she travels in a relatively confined environment, this soundtrack « claustrophobic » (The narrowness of the place is well restored with the use of many echoes) uses a significant dynamic to make the fire gusts resonate in the passageways.

The spatialization is coherent, the surround channels are used for atmospheric effects (the engine room), the music gently rhythm the whole and the dialogues are captured with clarity. But crossing low cost obliges, weapons have no impact (children's firecrackers) and bass really find it hard to pull out of the hold.

CONCLUSION - Taking Nick out of his Cage

For anyone considering purchasing (groupies of Nicolas Cage ?), this Manhunt geriatric has at least the merit of being firmly organized on 4K Ultra HD support. Did the game deserve so much? I doubt it, put your guns away!

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
