and warped by an unnatural attraction between human and solid surface. Fortunately, the image isn't a total loss. Fine detail is still fair, even on
scenes, shooting the famous "bed" scene, and more. The supplement is intercut with additional cast and crew interviews. I felt that in general the presentation offered fair to middling resolution, not in keeping what we have seen from the better offerings, especially for re-mastered catalog titles. If I had to describe the Ultra HD presentation in one word, it would be, flat. Oddly enough I found that the Blu-ray makes for a more stable viewing experience, despite not having those eye-catching moments seen on the Ultra HD rendering.
Planes, Trains & Automobiles Review
Written and directed by the incomparable John Hughes, the celebrated comedy PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES comes in for a landing on 4K Ultra HD for the first time ever on November 22, 2022, from Paramount Home Entertainment. Unfortunately, there was a decision to apply some digital noise reduction on certain aspects of the image. The application isn’t heavy handed per se, but the effects are noticeable, with some instances being subtle, while others are more on the blatant side. Other than those already mentioned, I have opted not to refer to specific moments, since there are many who may not notice this, and pointing it out could impact their experience. Those with a critical eye won’t have any trouble discerning where DNR is an issue. While use of it is generally unacceptable, I have seen worse, but then again, why apply it here, rather than take the necessary steps to offer a faithful rendering?
about bonding and compassion between the most unlikely of friends and amidst the most unusual string of events, and combined with the picture's the individual events. Rather, it's how well they all fit together and flow naturally one from the other that makes the film a great success. This isn't

The same may be said for various crowded airport scenes, but with a slightly less traveler -- is but the first stop on a journey of self-discovery, blossoming friendship, and a whole lot of travel mishaps. genuine and built around that age-old principle of "it could happen to you!," which gives added weight to and earns extra laughs from every Candy speak to the press.

It's more than just a road trip-gone-wrong Comedy, though. Planes, Trains & Automobiles works so well thanks to the magical pairing of Heartbreak and Triumph: The Legacy of John Hughes (25:52). The former features a parade of celebrities -- and Hughes himself -- speaking veteran comedians Steve Martin and John Candy and the effortlessness with which they play every angle their parts demand, from pure anger to Drama-oriented coming-of-age detention film The Breakfast Club. Like its name suggests, Planes, Trains & explore John Hughes the writer and director, but John Hughes the man. They both only enhance one's appreciation of his films, and fans will want to
happen. It's not just flight delays and a shortage of money, but some truly ingenious situations that are innocently scary, incredible, and even happen. It's far smarter than that, a creative masterpiece of a movie that's as well thought-out and obviously put together people who
While this is still a funny and fantastic holiday film, this 4K Ultra HD release is even more disappointing than the already problematic Blu-ray release. I cannot really recommend this as an upgrade and was really wondering to myself if Paramount somehow issued the incorrect transfer of this release. If I could just use a “head scratching” emoji to sum up my thoughts, I would. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is out on 4K Ultra HD November 22, 2022, from Paramount Planes, Trains, and Automobiles comes to Ultra HD Blu-ray from Paramount Home Entertainment featuring 2160pHEVC encoded video and lossless DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio sound. Planes, Trains and Automobiles originally garnered a fair report from me on its video quality in 1080p. So, I wondered what its remastered Ultra HD presentation would offer. Color reproduction is consistent, with primaries like blue and red appearing richer, even a bit more delineated by comparison. Secondary hues, featured in its 80’s period-based story, look great too. During the opening sequence the first thing that caught my eye was that I detected what appeared to be the use of digital noise reduction which smoothed over fine details during the advertising meeting.
