Inglourious Basterds [4K Ultra-HD] [2009] [Blu-ray] [Region Free]

Product Information

Tarantino is as much creator as curator, and his overbearing cinephilia appeals to audiences who not only lost it at the movies but can’t seem to live without them: From Reservoir Dogs to his Kill Bill diptych, his films are solipsistic totems to his favorite things, and their effect is often suffocating. He's an associate editor for Collider and has written for Shudder, CBS, Paste Magazine, Guff, Smosh, Obsev Studios, and more.

The HDR pass brings a little more detail out in the blacks, with a bit more nuance in the colors, though the highlights are rather hot.Low Frequency Extension: The subwoofer provides a lot of great boom, from explosions, roaring fire, pounding gunfire, crashing, engines rumbling, glass shatter, punches landing and more. I loved the opening introduction scene of Hans Landa interrogating a simple local farmer over the location of some missing Jews and the setup for Mélanie Laurent’s Shosanna. Looking at the 1080p version, which is solid in its own right, the difference is noticeable, but not what I would describe as night and day. Pitt undoubtedly shines in his role as the lead of a crack team of "Apache" Nazi hunters, but it's Waltz who steals the show, delivering the kind of quirky and politely menacing performance that understandably drew the attention of Bond producers when it came to casting their next Blofeld (even if that went all kinds of wrong, at least in Spectre). Bursting with “action, hair-trigger suspense and a machine-gun spray of killer dialogue” (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone), Inglourious Basterds is “another Tarantino masterpiece” (Jake Hamilton, CBS-TV)!

There’s even a parodic making-of documentary of this piece of fake Nazi propaganda, with actors appearing in character as various German filmmakers and officials weigh in on the “project. Inglourious Basterds comes to Ultra HD Blu-ray from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment featuring 2160pHEVC encoded video and lossless DTS-HD 5. Tarantino’s words pop, but no longer do they exist entirely to flatter his audience’s pop know-how, but to illuminate the politics of communication and survival during WWII.Nominees in nine categories have been selected among all titles released during 2009 on Blu-ray by a panel of judges, based on the complete . Everything is an allusion, a pose, in the films of Quentin Tarantino, right down to the font and colors that he uses for his title sequences—even the name of his production company, A Band Apart, which arrogantly asks us to think of him as our generation’s Godard. Tarantino’s dialogue throughout is more than just witty, as it also exudes feeling, dread, and risk. Inglourious Basterds comes with the standard Blu-ray version and a redeemable digital code for the film.

Sadly, I cannot justify a double dip for the same audio and what is sure to be very minimal picture quality improvement. There are still certain advantages, such as the higher bit rate, greater color depth, better encoding, and HDR, but the result is problematic with an eleven-year-old HD master. Tarantino does well to juggle a slew of different languages too, eschewing the " Hunt For Red October" gambit of just having everybody speak English (when they're clearly not), and embarking upon extended conversations in German, French and even - in the funniest scene - Italian.

In Nazi-occupied France, a group of Jewish-American soldiers are on a mission to take down the leaders of the Third Reich.

If not, maybe if they read the reviews and the responses to them, it might go a small way towards waking them up to produce releases which would not be devoid of quality. The reality is that the upscale/native battle is of little consequence in the real world, with so many spectacular reference upscales out there, and, whilst She later makes it to Paris and winds up running a cinema which will soon be showing a Nazi propaganda film, and she intends to get revenge. Universal’s release of the film includes a pretty beautiful looking 4K upscale of the film, along with the awesome 5.
