About this deal

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.

Additional Note: The disc I reviewed was a BD-100. It has been reported that later pressings used a BD-66. Since I do not have that disc, I 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): For more about The Dark Knight 4K and the The Dark Knight 4K Blu-ray release, see the The Dark Knight 4K Blu-ray Review published by Michael Reuben on February 21, 2018 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.5 out of 5. 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.

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. Batman Unmasked: The Psychology of The Dark Knight – Delve into the Psyche of Bruce Wayne and the World of Batman Through Real-World Psychotherapy 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.

Batman Unmasked: The Psychology of The Dark Knight – Delve into the psyche of Bruce Wayne and the World of Batman through real-world psychotherapy based on incorrect information supplied by Warner Brothers. It has now been confirmed from multiple sources that the 4K/HDR master was derived To say that The Dark Knight it exceeded my expectations would be a bit of an understatement. It allowed the audience the chance to further examine the complex persona behind the man on both sides of the mask. Batman struggles not only against the mob but also has to deal with corruption within local law enforcement and city prosecutors. On top of that he must now contend with The Joker who is unlike anything he has dealt with previously. This isn’t an overly complicated individual but his methodology is anything but simple. He is an anarchist who has no value system. His belief is that everyone is corruptible and that the one individual who consistently challenges that theory must constantly be put to the test. This film is an eclectic thriller, and a fast-paced action opus, that is exactly what genre fans clamor for. It is my opinion that without the outstanding performance by the late Heath Ledger as The Joker the film would not have had the same impact. He took this character to a level not achieved by any other actor playing this type of villain in an action film. I am sure that I am not alone when I say that I appreciated his efforts.
