8K source, lots of exotic imagery and colors, what's not to love?

taxi driver for overall best representation

The Fall for colors

This is tough as there are quite a few. Ultimately I decided to leave out any films that were shot digitally. I have to go with Prom Night 1980 though because it has never received a proper home video release and Synapse went all out to give us an outstanding presentation that the film deserves and it is gorgeous.

Breathtaking and ultra sharp picture.

rocknblues81 · 05-31-2017, 12:23 AM

The Thin Red Line looks pretty damn good.

"Baraka" and "Samsara" are about as good as it gets. "Sweet Smell of Success" looks incredible as far as B&W films.

Jay Mammoth · 05-31-2017, 12:25 AM

That's a tough one. 1st one that comes to mind is Life of Pi 3D.

Love that one. That waxy sheen is incredible. "The Color of Money" is also reference quality.

imsounoriginal · 05-31-2017, 12:40 AM

Moneyball Mi4K has to be up there.

xander · 05-31-2017, 12:42 AM

Not a great movie, but Battleship is one impressive looking disc.

The Great Owl · 05-31-2017, 12:49 AM

Niagara looks pretty great. I need to revisit it now that I have a 4K television, just to see how much it blows me away all over again.

Casino Royale (2006), Skyfall, and Spectre are all spot-on amazing as well.

If you want to see a great-looking Blu-ray presentation of a black-and-white film, then watch the Criterion Blu-ray of Sweet Smell of Success.
