Other than that, I found these Ultra HD renderings to be excellent, delivering a nuanced, and at times captivating, visual experience that thoroughly accentuated both the source elements, and thematic impact of watching The Dark Knight Trilogy. It goes without saying that these Ultra HD releases are a must have for your Blu-ray collection. Photochemically finished films of 35 millimeters have at least 6K resolution, IMAX films upwards of 18K, and so as home video formats keep evolving, 4K — particularly with HDR — allows us to give somebody in the home an experience that’s much much closer to what it was like to see the original film prints as projected on film,” the director told BadTaste.it.

With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, the Batman has been making headway against local crime... until a rising criminal mastermind known as The Joker unleashes a fresh reign of chaos across Gotham City. To stop this devious new menace — Batman's most personal and vicious enemy yet — he will have to use every high-tech weapon in his arsenal and confront everything he believes. For those not familiar with the details regarding Ultra HD Blu-ray you can refer to my article that includes some pertinent data on the subject. Here is the link: I eagerly awaited Christopher Nolan’s final installment and hoped that it would befit and compliment the first two in the series. The Dark Knight would be difficult to live up to for a variety of reasons, but as a fan I had hopes. I went to see The Dark Knight Rises with my son who is a very big fan. My reaction to it wasn’t as enthusiastic as it was with its predecessor. I found the script to be slightly uneven and overlong as it dealt with Bruce’s excursion to the pit while he sorted out the true meaning of life, death and that conquering fear alone wasn’t enough if he was going to rise from the remains left of him by the indomitable Bane. I also found the final showdown between Bane and Batman to be anticlimactic, and disappointing, which wasn’t helped by the rather conventional plot twist that I saw coming. The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises utilizes two different aspect ratios, 2.40:1 and 1.78:1, to incorporate the sequences that were shot using IMAX cameras. Both have been integrated here with some scenes/sequences having one AR and the next the other. The result doesn’t infringe upon fidelity or interrupt the visual flow of the movie. timing. . . .The original material - I held it in my hands - it was gorgeous. . . . The colors are so

The Dark Knight Trilogy’s three films share the same visual aesthetic which supports the narrative’s thematic tone. While these aren’t films that consistently utilize emphatic color schemes, there are times elements that make for dazzling visuals, and that comes across with aplomb in their Ultra HD renderings. Unlike the first movie, the sequel comes with a noticeably brighter, more polished style that allows for a significantly wider color gamut. And on UHD, Wally Pfister's photography is spectacularly beautiful and striking with richly-saturated primaries throughout, such as the Joker's more vivid red makeup being distinctly different from the more crimson shade of blood. Joker's hair is more a toxic yellowish dye while his vest is a dark moss or dark reseda tone, and the blue sky comes with a lovely picturesque glow. The secondary hues benefit greatly as well, displaying more variation and richness between the various shades. The afternoon sky comes an attractive purplish glow while Joker's suit is more of a dirty plum color, and the fiery orange glow in the many explosions allow for the most minute detail within the hottest spot. Flesh tones also have a nice, lifelike rosiness around the cheeks of the cast. You can either watch the Focus Points featurettes in the context of the film, separately, or with a “play all” option. There’s also Blu-ray bonus disc of additional features that adds the following (all in HD): On Ultra HD Blu-ray we’re offered a terrific remastering of the film and those stunning IMAX sequences, as well as some Blu-ray specific features (only offered in 1080p). Still, a commentary would have been excellent, too. Ultimately, the best reason to own this disc is to have a seriously great reference disc on hand for the impressive video and audio quality. Warner Bros. generally does an excellent job with many of their top-tier 4k Blu-ray titles (the hits for the most part) and The Dark Knight looks and sounds terrific. The best part is that those amazing scenes Nolan filmed in IMAX look jaw-dropping on a big living-room screen in 4k. To accomplish a kind of quasi-IMAX effect at home the widescreen image switches aspect ratio, nearly imperceptibly, between 16:9 for the IMAX scenes (originally in 1.44:1 ratio) and 2.4:1 with small letterbox bars at top and bottom for the similar aspect ratio size of the projected 35mm scenes. The switch (six times for each IMAX scene) is not as distracting as one might think, and overall it’s a huge benefit to the presentation of the film. And it’s true. We first popped in the 1080p Blu-ray of The Dark Knight to compare to the new 4k Ultra HD Blu-ray release and it renders far superior color range. The darker areas and shadows have a ton more detail, and, there is much more contrast between light and dark areas. Of course, make sure your TV is set to cinema mode and not one of those fake, color-enhancing modes that make films look more like cheap TV shows than the multi-million dollar productions they are.

But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane.

Since that time, however, dissenting voices have questioned the quality of that Blu-ray, which, like all of Nolan's films to date, was Worse are the full-length segments of the faux tabloid news show “Gotham Tonight,” featuring Anthony Michael Hall. While they’re interesting in context to the film’s narrative (and Hall’s not bad), they don’t offer much for cinephiles or Batfanatics in regards to how the film was accomplished and the impact it is already starting to have in cinema and fan circles. Nolan created a phenomenon in the summer of 2008 and that is something that bears more focus than the features offered here. Still Galleries also feature the amazing concept art and fantastic PR materials that preceded the film’s release as well as Theatrical and TV trailer spots in from the film in full HD (1 teaser, 2 trailers, and a few TV spots) that are impressive in look and execution. Conclusion Aside from the constant abuse to his well-honed body, he fears for the safety of those around him, and as Batman becomes his primary identity he allows the man known as Bruce Wayne to become a caricature of the playboy billionaire… a mask to show the outside world, a façade to protect those he loves, and the only way to maintain Wayne Industries and allow himself the time (and money) to be the kind of (Bat)man he needs to be. The only question remaining is which Batman does Gotham want: A dark vigilante protecting them from terror? A useful myth on which to pin their own fears and darkest hatreds? That question is the dark heart of the matter.
