Welcome to the discussion on the best 4K HDR movies available on Netflix! With the rise of high-quality streaming content, it's essential to highlight the titles that truly shine in terms of HDR quality (including those with Dolby Vision and HDR10 support). In this thread, I'll categorize movies into two tiers: Excellent HDR Experience and Good HDR Quality. Feel free to share your recommendations and insights.
Tier 1: Excellent HDR Experience
Tier 1: Excellent HDR Experience
- These 4K movies offer exceptional HDR quality, providing us with immersive and stunning visuals that showcase the full potential of HDR on Streaming.
- Movies in the Excellent range offer the highest quality and are best suited for TVs and Projectors with the maximum capacity for HDR.
- While not reaching the pinnacle of HDR excellence on Streaming, these movies still deliver a satisfying HDR experience with vibrant colors and enhanced contrast.
- Good range movies are optimized for HDR TVs.
- I've analyzed HDR quality in 768 Netflix 4K movies, evaluating 1) Peak Brightness, 2) Average Brightness, 3) Mastered Color Space, and 4) finally, conducting a visual inspection.
- Having a high peak brightness is great, but if the average brightness throughout the movie falls below the HDR range (typically between 400 to 600 nits), it may not utilize the benefits of HDR. Also, simply focusing on high peak brightness levels can result in overly bright images that lack the detail. The "ideal" HDR should strike a balance!
- Please include the title of the movie, along with a brief description of why you believe it deserves its place in the recommended list.
- Feel free to share any technical insights into the HDR implementation or visual aspects of the movie (or tv show/series).
- Respectful discussion is encouraged. Let's keep the conversation engaging and informative for all participants.
- I'll try to keep the regions updated whenever new titles are added or existing ones are removed.
- If you notice any discrepancies with the listed movies, please report them here. Your feedback will help maintain the accuracy and usefulness of the tiers.
