NOTICE: The disk has English audio and subtitles. Review: Do like this film and have been looking for it on 4k for a while. Frustratingly it's only been available as part of the 'Jack Ryan set' up until now so when I saw it was finally being released on its own, I jumped at the chance. Having said that, if I'm being honest, I was a bit unsure of whether it would live up to my expectations or not. I have found that 4k discs, especially of older films, can vary a bit in quality. I was recently left slightly underwhelmed by Spiderman 2 because while the picture was good, the level of film grain was seriously distracting. I get that it's something that is a result of shooting on film and generally don't consider myself a 'grain hater' - I actually prefer leaving it in to applying excessive DNR (digital noise reduction) - but what I don't quite get is how it can vary from movie to movie, if both were shot on film. Unfortunately, on Spiderman 2 it was like a swarm of gnats in places (which never came up in any review I read) and because THFRO is more than 10 years older, I was a bit worried it would be a similar story. Well, I'm glad to say I was wrong. For whatever reason the grain is far less pronounced and the detail level in some scenes is astonishing (at least it was to me). I was honestly marvelling at close-ups of Scott Glen's face, as Captain of the USS Dallas. Unfortunately the studio didn't take the opportunity to upgrade the soundtrack to Dolby Atmos, however it's less of an issue than I thought it would be, because while it's still 'only' 5.1, it's Dolby True HD, which, unlike Dolby digital, is lossless (not compressed) and that meant that the soundtrack was crisp and weighty and while I was watching it in 'pseudo' Dolby Atmos (via My AVR's upmixer) I really did not feel like I was missing out, which is not the case with upmixed Dolby Digital. All in all, a great experience and worth getting! Review: la poursuite d'Octobre rouge " , et je l'ai réceptionné en Anglais Bien à vous Donatos BOTOS

De nouveaux détails dans La vision 4K. Un excellent moment pour se refaire un film de cette qualité.

Excellent film, mais le gain du 4K n'est pas évident par rapport au Blu-ray... Beaucoup de fourmillements, on sent que le master n'a pas été réalisé avec autant de soin qu'on était en droit de l'espérer...

My favourite submarine film. A classic. Given a colour balance overhaul for 4K including to make the scenes inside the Soviet subs darker, to make them more claustrophobic and oppressive and it works. The sound has been rebalanced to make dialogue quieter so you have to turn it up to hear it and therefore louder background noise and music is almost uncomfortably loud, Interstellar style. I'm not such a big fan of that, but this is still a great release of an amazing classic film.
