And I know the answer why the others have no interest.

I actually found it oddly boring... I understand they wanted to show off the 'tribal dance/celebration' bits, but I could have done with less dancing, and more focus on the 'unusual?' social structure.

At least it had some pretty cinematography of the stunning landscapes... Was this actually shot in Africa?

Yes, it was shot in Africa.

Me: (logs into review) 3.5 stars for movie itself huh? Svet didn't write this one.

Watched this last night. Enjoyed it quite a bit and Sony delivers on the transfer per usual.

RealisticBotMan · 12-14-2022, 03:29 AM

Since this seems to piss certain people off.

Hard. Pass.

It’s bound to happen when you take a lot of creative liberties with historical accuracy.

Imagine basing your life around trying to piss people off

To be fair, I'm assuming what you think is people being pissed off is more like 'thank god I'm not that guy'

Based my life on? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume English is your second language.

For sure, Ignorance is bliss. Careful you don't base your whole life on it though.

One would think the obvious name would let you know not to give attention to a bot.

Wow...Dolby Vision burned my eyeballs :-), amazing, spectacular color grading...
Loved the movie, Viola Davis will win the Oscar.

Thank f*** the standard UK release dodged that horrendous artwork.

That look on her face haha!

PonyoBellanote · 12-21-2022, 11:07 PM

I always thought the 4K cover art would be gorgeous on a steelbook. I think the back cover clashes too much with the front, but otherwise this is a steel that will probably look amazing in hand.

I'll be getting the US release, though, and I'd mostly want to double dip just for the pretty steel, but I'm not sure I'm gonna be able to. But it's pretty tempting so I won't say never..

I suppose this will be an entirely different encode from the US disc. Sony's Blu-ray (and I assume 4K UHD) uses PGS subtitles for the foreign language dialogue, so I wonder if eOne could have burned in theatrical subtitles, assuming they were stylized. Strangely, it looks like eOne also did the Canadian Blu-ray, but did not release a 4K disc there.

I'm surprised Sony is not releasing this movie on 4K Blu-ray in the UK.

It may get a 4K release in the UK at a later date and if not, you can always import it from the U.S.
