Twister

Description

Blockbuster adventure yarn stars Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton as estranged husband/wife scientists Dr. Jo and Bill Harding, who reunite to chase down some of the world's nastiest tornadoes in Oklahoma with help from the special storm-tracking gadget they've developed. Incredible special effects highlight this Steven Spielberg production. With Jami Gertz, Cary Elwes, Philip Seymour Hoffman. Directed by Jan DeBont ("Speed"). 113 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Review: Excellent 4K UHD Print - Movie has been beautifully brought out in 4K UHD…excellent picture and sound. Must in any movie library…watch on big screens 75 inch and above. Thanks to the supplier ‘Heavenly Heroes’ for secure packing for a fragile and costly item. Others should learn from them. Review: They don't seem to be able to make movies like this anymore. A young and fun Philip Seymour Hoffman complements the two leads extremely well, and the direction is authentic and energetic when it needs to be. The 4K breathes new life into the film, adding in some of the green-out tornado vibes the director wanted when they originally shot the film. The new color spectrum isn't too different from before, but the whole image just looks a lot nicer than it has previously, and the sound is absolutely stunning. The disc itself seems to be encoded well enough at a decent but average rate around 56Mbps. The overall image is finely detailed with not too much tinkering or grain reduction. It's a big upgrade from the previous and ancient 2008 VC-1 encode. The Atmos track is NUTS, so buckle up for that one if you have a sub or really nice headphones. I think the steel looks fantastic. It's a matte color with nicely detailed and sharp images to contrast the black paint. Iconic shapes are littered throughout the back and front of the steel. It's a solid product for a great film.
