For those who may have felt cheated by a lack of in-your-face grain, in Paramount’s recent release of Grease, there will be no such concern for Steven Speilberg’s 1998 Saving Private Ryan, as it perfectly replicates the look of a first generation print, directly derived from the cut camera original.
Paramount scores a perfect 10 with SPR, which is yet another addition to the short list of true 4k product, hitting that can be considered reference quality.
This one is simple.
Everyone needs a copy.
And for those who have never seen it, here is the perfect means of doing so outside of a large-screen event.
Image – 5
Audio – 5 (Dolby Atmos)
Pass / Fail – Pass
Upgrade from Blu-ray – Absolutely!
Very Highly Recommended
