WORK – Once upon a time there was the Black West

Decided to take revenge, outlaw Nat Love takes his horse with his band to settle his account to his enemy Rufus Buck, a cruel gang leader escaped from prison.

Modern and never hurting on style, this black western and activist with decomplex energy, five-star African-American casting, exacerbated violence and incredibly charismatic characters, stripes the genre under a deluge of action « drawn » by free slaves (including strong women) armed to their teeth. Ultra-jouissive and messy cool!

IMAGE – The new look of the Far West

Beautifully restored in UHD Dolby Vision, this visual orgy of every moment, which plunges us into the big spaces « coloured » American West, is just sumptuous!

The definition is dreadful (a capture 8K), piqué and depth of field are exemplary, colorimetry is abundant to the possible (blood is very red), contrasts are particularly well adjusted (cf. the sequence taking place in Maysville, the city « white ») and extremely bright light sources.

SON – The train will whistle from the urban

Rhythmed by a demented OST (between rap, afrobeat and reggae) produced by Jay-Z, this soundtrack Dolby Atmos (in VO as in VF) that works brandish, in line with the « signature » of the work, devastating basses, a thundering dynamic, shootings with nothing to envy to the Grosse Bertha, a truly enveloping spatialization (between discreet atmospheres and demonstrative effects), clear dialogues (pulp) and an air scene always ready to defuse.

CONCLUSION – Black is black!

This neo-western, which revitalizes the genre by freeing from the myth of white cowboys to better correct the historical memory of the conquest of the West, explodes everything on Netflix!

The Harder They Fall

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
