WORK – The Round Table of Gentlemen
In 1902, the aristocrat Orlando, Duke of Oxford, lost his wife Emily on a humanitarian mission to South Africa during the Second Boer War; Their young son Conrad also witnessed his death. Twelve years later, while a mysterious organization wants to overthrow the world order, it creates a global spy network with the help of its servants Shola and Polly, and inquires about the threat that is looming over Europe.
Against the background of a historical tragedy with which he amuses, this pacifist blockbuster imbued with the style of frankness (but with a more serious tone) does not sip on the scenes of action (tonitrous and cartoonesque) or on British humour (singling) to ensure the success of the mission.
IMAGE – Around the Great War
Captured in 4K and 6K using digital cameras before implementing a DI 2K, these images from a solid UHD HDR10 transfer are ready to face the Berger's sbires!
Luxuriously defined and even more piquéed than in 1080p (a gap of finesse visible on faces, clothes and backgrounds), they develop more seasoned contrasts (for a darker to better perceived details), a more nuanced colorimetric palette (well marked on warm shades) and enhanced light sources (lights during the Christmas meal) where the overexposures of its HD counterpart no longer occur (see the snowy landscapes behind the windows of the train).
SON – One « madness » So British!
While it had to be aggressive (as is the VF), the VO Dolby Atmos lacks power by a dynamic on restraint. Fortunately, it remains driven by excellent spatialisation (the acoustic field reaches a high level of immersion) where the atmospheres as well as the effects pass through all the channels (even if the aerial scene is not very popular). The dialogues are clear, the LFE channel is palpable and the music score envelopes.
The VF Dolby Digital Plus 7.1, which is better able to accompany the destructive madness of the most turbulent passages (the no man And equally efficiently distributed (except for the verticality of the sound, in any way discreet as possible), there is only at the level of clarity (mind) where it sins (the limits of compression). Once it is not customary, especially since it is equipped with a well integrated dubbing, it is to this sound track that you must turn to.
CONCLUSION – God save the follows
Since they are the most elegant and classy to go to kill, these Gentleman warriors at the service of the crown are adorned with a very pimping 4K Ultra HD!
