Ex Machina 4K Blu-ray Review

Reviewed by Jeffrey Kauffman, June 5, 2017

Maybe there's a parlor game someone can create to explain the linkage between a trifecta of catalog items Lionsgate has chosen to release in tandem in the 4K UHD format. Dredd 3D, Snitch and Ex Machina (the links point to the original 1080p releases) would seem to have relatively little in common, but for 4K UHD aficionados, there are both visual and aural pleasures to be had.



For my thoughts on the film, please see our Ex Machina Blu-ray review.

Ex Machina is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of Lionsgate Films with a 2160p transfer in 2.40:1. This is to my eyes the nicest looking and clearest upgrade of the three films being released simultaneously on 4K UHD by Lionsgate. Presumably the film's 4K DI was sourced for this transfer, and the uptick in fine detail levels and more nuanced reproduction of a really interesting palette are noticeable from the get go. Even the first few seconds detailing the office environment where Caleb gets notified of his prize win have some really beautiful new tones in the colors adorning the walls. The digital effects on Kevin's face when he's scanned also are more precise looking. Some of the most breathtaking changes are in the gorgeous vistas of external environments that are first part of the flyover scene, but which are later used interstitially. Fine detail on textures like veined leaves or branches is almost staggering at times. Kind of interestingly, given the sleek, almost textureless look of the ultra modern interior of Bateman's mansion, there are subtle upticks in fine detail here, as in the pattern of wood paneling in Caleb's room. One of the coolest (actually warmest, in terms of color temperature) changes in the 4K UHD version comes in the many red hued scenes, which have a real depth in this version that they lacked in the 1080p version. Despite the prevalence of reds in several key scenes, fine detail levels remain strong throughout. The many cool gray scenes have new tonal balances as well. Shadow detail, an area I found lacking in the 1080p presentation, is noticeably improved throughout this version. As I've tended to do in some other 4K UHD presentations, and something which I freely admit may simply be part of my visual cortex processing, I perceived some very slight judder at times, as with some tree branches when cameras panned during outdoor moments.

I didn't yet have a receiver able to decode DTS:X when I reviewed the Blu-ray release of Ex Machina, but I still gave the audio top marks. There's not a whale of a lot of difference between the DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 mix and the DTS:X mix on the 4K UHD disc, but some of the effects are noticeably more present in midair, including some of the effulgent synth pads that make up parts of the score. There's also some fantastic panning in the early sequence featuring the helicopter, a sequence which also offers some surprising low end that isn't quite as noticeable on the Blu-ray version. The cloistered setting of the film probably inhibits more showy audio effects, but this track offers superb fidelity and a glut of nicely placed sound effects which help to create a suitably otherwordly ambience.

In a slight step backward, the 4K UHD disc ports over none of the supplements from the Blu-ray release (hence the lack of a score above). The 1080p Blu-ray disc included with this release contains all of the supplements detailed in our Ex Machina Blu- ray review. The two other 4K UHD releases coming out from Lionsgate in tandem with Ex Machina port over all of the supplements from their original 1080p Blu-ray releases.

Ex Machina 4K Blu-ray, Overall Score and Recommendation

   

Ex Machina remains a fascinating and thought provoking enterprise, and the good news is it looks and sounds incredible on 4K UHD. Lionsgate refrained from including the Blu-ray disc's supplements, as they've been doing lately (and indeed did with the two other 4K UHD re-releases that are coming out in tandem with Ex Machina), which is the bad news. At least those supplements are still accessible on the Blu-ray disc included with this release. Highly recommended.

he Great Wall 4K Blu-ray Review

Reviewed by Martin Liebman, May 30, 2017

The Great Wall isn't revisionist history, it's just dumb fantasy. The film, which posits that China's Great Wall -- one of the seven wonders of the world -- was not built to keep invading humans out but rather invading monsters out, offers nearly nonstop human vs monster mayhem centered around China's hallmark landmark. The scaly green foes, who send their queen into the middle of every battle and protect her with a reptilian-type Testudo Formation, attack en masse and are repelled by defenders along the wall. They're also vulnerable to...magnets. It's an exercise in imagination and creativity, but the movie proper offers anything but. Made up of the same old, same old in terms of acrobatic action scenes and nonsensical scenarios, Director Zhang Yimou's (Coming Home) film can't escape its vacuous story, even with its barrage of visuals meant to blind more forgiving audiences from the emptiness around them.



William Garin (Matt Damon) leads a band of mercenaries who have entered Chinese territory in search of the mythical "black powder" (gunpowder). In their pursuits, they are attacked by an unseen creature. William severs its hand. They are soon thereafter taken prisoner by Chinese forces and held within the Great Wall. There, their tale of defeating the monster is met with doubt and derision, but William's story is ultimately proven correct. But no sooner is his story validated does the wall come under attack from an army of those same creatures. Under orders of General Lin (Jing Tian), William and his companion Pero Tovar (Pedro Pascal) are to be kept away from battle, but William's skill ultimately helps turn the tide. Soon, he finds himself a central figure in China's battle against the scaly, monstrous army.

It's impossible to watch The Great Wall and not think of Starship Troopers. Unfortunately, this film lacks the same kind of biting social commentary as found in Paul Verhoeven's man-versus-monster War movie. Instead, The Great Wall is simply an excuse to show off a bunch of recycled "cool factor" moments and scenarios all over the screen. The movie banks on its unfeasible spectacle to entertain, the same kind of slow motion, showboat antics that, no matter how hard they try, cannot hide the movie's structural weaknesses. The wall has archers, OK. It comes armed with multiple catapults. Makes sense. And then there are...bungie jumpers. People who stand out on a small ledge and bungie off the side of the wall to strike enemies with a spear, a spear they, of course, receive with precision, acrobatic unison from back at the wall. Maybe it's just a jaded reviewer talking, but it's just slicked-up nonsense that detracts from an already weak story with one of the most try-hard bits of nonsense ever committed to film. Build a moat, drop hot oil, use that gunpowder more effectively, but take the story seriously enough and disregard the pointless circus acts next time, please.

Sadly, the groan-inducing bits don't stop there. Gems of dialogue like "What god made those things?" followed by "None that we know" litter the movie. The pseudo romance angle that never really goes anywhere seems to only take up space where much more grit might have worked better, something more like Reign of Fire and less like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon with monsters. Matt Damon, whose character is named William, is a regular William Tell with the bow, a man capable of shooting three arrows, one to deflect a dish and two more to hold it upright against a pillar in a bit of bow-and-arrow trickery that only CGI could accomplish. Damon's performance is stilted, tired, lacking any sort of tangible depth or emotion, one of the most empty of his career. On the plus side, the movie does look gorgeous. Costuming is intricate, CGI blends perfectly with real life, battle scenes are sprawling and involved, and several moments, including a sequence in the fog midway through the film, are quite engrossing. The movie just can't help but to favor spectacle over grit, and it pushes so hard it loses its way and never recovers, right on through to its colorful stained glass window finale.

This one really shines on UHD. For as good as the movie looks on 1080p Blu-ray, this 2160p/HDR-enhanced presentation of The Great Wall, sourced from a 4K digital intermediate, is much better. Color depth and density are noticeably improved right of the bat. The clay- and beige-colored earthy terrains seen early in the film offer a quick tell-tale sign of the upgrade. Saturation is much improved, and there's significantly more punch and vibrancy and nuance to the colors without betraying the essential appearance of each shade or the basic textural integrity of any given scene or location. Here, it's easy to see that terrain sharpness and detail, even at distance, are much greater on the UHD as well. Black levels are a little brighter, but here offering, at times, an opportunity to reveal more detail. The dark, blue and gray-dominant scene inside the wall in chapter two isn't as dense on the Blu-ray, but the trade-off is much more visible detail on the dark armor. The finer points and most intricate lines and creases shine on the UHD. They're very complex on the Blu-ray, too, but this takes things to another level, and that's not to even mention the tangible increase in minute depth between the protruding decorations and the furthest pieces of background material. For this one, however, it ultimately comes back around to the color. The increase in depth and tonal accuracy is stunning. Every shade benefits, from the most dazzling blues to the most barren, earthy hue. Detail enjoys a fair uptick in sharpness and definition but the color makes this UHD what it is, definitely one of the best on the market and a reference point for HDR excellence.

The Great Wall 4K Blu-ray, Audio Quality

   

The Great Wall's UHD release features a Dolby Atmos soundtrack, and it's a good one. For much of the film, overhead elements are more complimentary than they are obvious, but several moments, and two standout, take place later in the movie. In one scene, Matt Damon's character yells "above you!" and, sure enough, the sound seems to emanate from the ceiling. In another, the creatures seem to scurry right above the heroes; the top layer is filled with their various maneuverings, making for one of the most intense and direct overhead elements yet in an Atmos soundtrack. Otherwise, the top end serves to support the rest of the track. Chaotic battle scenes spring to life with countless examples of whoosh, swish, zip, and zoom. Arrows pierce every inch of the stage. Enflamed projectiles sling through the listening area. Every speaker is engaged, and the top layer adds space to the excitement. Both multidirectional and discrete effects litter the stage in every battle scene, and Universal's track is pinpoint and very fun. Music is well defined, stretching the stage in every direction and making full, but not overbearing, use of the surround channels. Coverage and clarity are complete. Dialogue is firm, well positioned in the front-center, and both detailed and well prioritized. Reverberation is exacting as allowed. This is a tremendous, first-class listen from Universal.

The Great Wall 4K Blu-ray, Special Features and Extras

   

The Great Wall contains deleted and extended scenes and half a dozen brief featurettes, all on the included Blu-ray disc. No extras appear on the UHD disc. A UV/iTunes digital copy code is included with purchase. 

The Great Wall 4K Blu-ray, Overall Score and Recommendation

   

The Great Wall is more sophomoric than it is serious. True, not every film can be a dark, gritty, unbearable slice of (make-believe) wartime devastation, but this one just feels too contrived, over-the-top, dependent more on empty and needless spectacle than story. Of course, when the story is "monsters attacking China's Great Wall," there's not much to go on there, anyway. It should find favor with a forgiving audience, and it is decent time killing entertainment. It does its thing very well, but don't just leave the brain at the door, leave it tucked away in a safety deposit box, just to be sure. Universal's UHD release of The Great Wall is a showcase for HDR and the improvements the format brings over Blu-ray without sacrificing the image's base integrity. Detailing is stronger, too, but unlike the colors it's more a step forward than it is a leap. The Atmos audio is equally splendid. Supplements are mostly fluffy filler. Recommended.

Logan 4K Blu-ray Review

Reviewed by Jeffrey Kauffman, May 24, 2017

Cynics may wonder whether this is really the last time we're going to be seeing Logan on the big screen, but chances are one way or the other, it's probably the last time we'll be seeing Hugh Jackman portraying the character. Logan ostensibly says "goodbye" in this effective and visceral swan song which is being released by Fox in two versions on both traditional 1080p Blu-ray and 4K UHD.



For my thoughts on the film, please see our original Logan Blu-ray review.

Logan 4K Blu-ray, Video Quality 4K

    

1080p

   

Note: The included screenshots are sourced from a 1080p Blu-ray disc. Watch for 4K screenshots at a later date. 

Logan is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment with a 2160p transfer in 2.38:1 (as with the 1080p release, this is a two disc set, with the theatrical version on one 4K UHD disc and Logan Noir on a second 4K UHD disc). I gave top marks to Logan's 1080p Blu-ray presentation, and that excellence is continued and arguably magnified in the 4K UHD version. Perhaps because this was finished at a 4K DI, there's a quite noticeable uptick in fine detail levels throughout both the standard theatrical release and the (in my not so humble opinion) kind of needless black and white Logan Noir version. Everything from facial pores to fabric patterns to even some less expected details like the dust that swirls around the weird cylinder Logan is keeping Charles in resonate with more precision and detail now. The theatrical version also benefits from some subtle but noticeable new nuance in palette reproduction, with some kind of cool (no pun intended, given the color temperature) slight hints of teal in some of the blue graded sequences. The outdoor footage looks spectacular, especially when it's ungraded, offering really impressively blue skies and in several shots amazing depth of field. I was actually a bit more engaged by the black and white version in 4K UHD than I was in its 1080p Blu-ray version, though I still have to wonder what if anything the viewer is supposed to gain by seeing the film shorn of color. The deficits in shadow detail I noted in the review of the 1080p Blu-ray version are ameliorated if not completely eliminated in the 4K UHD version.

Logan 4K Blu-ray, Audio Quality

   

As with the video component, I gave top marks to the 1080p Blu-ray's DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 mix, and things are just as impressive, and arguably more so, with the 4K UHD Dolby Atmos mix. Overhead delivery of discrete sonic information is noticeable from the get go, including (perhaps a bit cheekily) with the "flipping pages" sounds accompanying the Marvel masthead, but even the opening sounds of Logan's limo being stripped have a new energy now. There's kind of an interesting new spatial component to the sound effects accompanying Charles' seizures on this track as well, with the silvery high frequency sounds seeming to hover in midair in a way they don't on the DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 track. Even some of the panning noises, including in scenes featuring Logan's limo or other vehicles, have a clarity and movement through space that isn't quite as visceral sounding on the DTS- HD Master Audio 7.1 track. Dialogue and score are also both offered cleanly and with very smart prioritization on this hugely enjoyable track.

The unexpected success of John Wick has reinvigorated Keanu Reeves' career, and now Lionsgate has brought out the second film in both 1080p Blu-ray and 2160p UHD versions.

John Wick: Chapter 2 4K Blu-ray, Video Quality 4K       1080p     Note: The included screenshots are sourced from a 1080p Blu-ray disc. Watch for 4K screenshots at a later date.  John Wick: Chapter 2 is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of Lionsgate Films with a 2160p transfer in 2.40:1. This is another 4K UHD upgrade sourced from a 2K DI which shows noticeable if subtle improvement in detail and fine detail levels, but which perhaps gets some of its most alluring new visual information courtesy of HDR and slight but often quite evocative changes to the palette. There is noticeably better detail in many of the fast motion action sequences, notably the great chase that opens the film. Shadow detail is often markedly improved as well, something that helps show some of the information in the background in the car chop shop or, later, in the catacombs scene. That said, there are still some slight deficits in shadow detail scattered throughout the film, and once or twice John's jet black suit tends to blend seamlessly with shaded surroundings. There's an interesting new "burnished" quality to several sequences which almost verges on an amber quality at times (notice the slight golden hues accompanying John walking into the Continental for the first time for one example of this tendency). Other palette tweakings include a slightly more crimson quality for some blood that gets let in a deluxe looking bathroom tub. Some of the green grading later in the film, in what is probably an intentional callback to the look of the first film, has an interesting new teal undertone that's quite beautiful.

Equally commendably, Lionsgate has ported over all of the supplements from the 1080p Blu-ray to this 4K UHD disc. Highly recommended.
