Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The 4K Blu Ray is breathtaking! I was hoping for a significant upgrade to the Blu Ray version and Warner Brothers delivered. The 4K is transferred from the original film that was shot in 1939, the transfer was scanned in 8K and is presented in 4K. The sepia tone film opening is a tremendous improvement over any version previously. The characters look lifelike on the screen even when filmed in sepia tone. Yes there is grain but not a lot or enough to distract. As many times as I have seen this film I actually discovered new things in the film and throughout the entire presentation. Professor Marvel's wagon has writing on it and I could read every word clearly, the tornado scene actually looked more realistic and not so blurry. Then comes the glorious technicolor and POW! you are totally immersed in vibrant color that has really never looked better than in 4K.There are so many stand out scenes that come to life in 4K such as, when the wicked witch comes and goes in the clouds, the yellow brick road is amazing in its detail as are the munchkins costumes. The details of Dorthy's dress are really cool, the two buttons on the dress are an off green and not white, the details are truly pleasing. The wicked witch's hourglass red sand is detailed like never before as you see each individual grain, it is truly amazing. The greens when they reach the Emerald City are outstanding and very vivid. You see Dorthy's face in vivid detail like never before, you can see her freckles. Thank you Warner Brothers for knocking this out of the park! They did not compromise as they should not have, this film is a national treasure and this version in 4K is a must have for any cinema aficionado! Enjoy!
