Forrest Gump, directed by Robert Zemeckis in 1994, and which won a few awards, is a timeless, wonderful film, that beautifully stands the test of time.
Sooo…
When I began assessing the new 4k Blu-ray with HDR, I had to look at certain attributes multiple times, and I’m still scratching my head.
While it generally looks superb, there are certain instances, presumably involving HDR, when things just look a bit out of wack.
Which causes me to wonder, once again, if certain films should be re-visited with the process.
I’m thinking that this one might have been better off going without.
With that single query, which is in no way a call to alarm, Paramount’s new 4k is a viable addition to one’s home theater library.
Dolby Atmos is always a welcome addition.
Image – 4.2
Audio – 5 (Dolby Atmos)
Pass / Fail – Pass
Very Highly Recommended

Robert has been known in the film industry for his unmatched skill and passion in film preservation. Growing up around photography, his first home theater experience began at age ten with 16mm. Years later he was running 35 and 70mm at home.
His restoration projects have breathed new life into classic films like Lawrence of Arabia, Vertigo, My Fair Lady, Spartacus, and The Godfather series. Beyond his restoration work, he has also shared his expertise through publications, contributing to the academic discourse on film restoration. The Academy Film Archive houses the Robert A. Harris Collection, a testament to his significant contributions to film preservation.
