The transfers here are identical to the previous releases, which range from decent, but could benefit from a remaster—the first three films—to Origins - Reinventing the Action Genre (HD, 19:35): Producer Joel Silver and screenwriter Jeb Stuart explain the first film's origins— Hans Gruber's famous fall, the ejector seat in the second film, the tunnel flood in Vengeance, and the flipping cars in Live Free or Die The film 4K, in fact, is a prototype of dozens of films that will be released later. In the film 2160p, there is a good storyline, and a charismatic protagonist with a villain, and the atmosphere of the New Year holiday, which the terrorists try to spoil so much.
Die Hard was shot on 35 mm film using Panavision cameras and anamorphic lenses, save for limited effects shots which were done in 65 mm. The original camera negative has been scanned in native 4K, graded for high dynamic range (in HDR10) and it’s presented on Ultra HD at the proper 2.39:1 theatrical aspect ratio. It’s safe to say that this image has never looked better. Fine detail and texturing are excellent, though with the usual amount of anamorphic softness around the edges of the frame. There’s a steady wash of light-moderate grain remaining that gives the image a pleasingly cinematic appearance. The HDR grade is restrained, but deepens the shadows nicely while giving highlights, police lights, gunfire, and explosions a nice bright gleam. Colors are natural but slightly restrained, consistent with this film’s unique character and overall look, yet they pop when necessary and show much more nuance than ever before. This is a dark film by nature, so the transfer doesn’t quite have the showiness of the best 4K presentations on this format, but it’s certainly reference quality for this particular film. Fans should be quite pleased with the image here. It’s easy to forget now that, until he popped up on movie screens in Blind Date (1987), people knew Bruce Willis exclusively as David Addison from the TV series Moonlighting. At the time, Willis was charming, funny, and only just starting to go bald. It was easy then for critics to dismiss him as a one-note actor, but he soon proved himself a talented performer. Take a look at Willis in Twelve Monkeys, Pulp Fiction, The Sixth Sense, In Country, and yes... Die Hard. You’ll see an actor who can grab your attention and run with it. In celebration of the franchise’s 30th anniversary a limited edition Blu-ray™ steelbook of DIE HARD will also be available exclusively at Best Buy. Unfortunately, Fox has not upgraded the audio on this release to either DTS:X or Dolby Atmos. Instead the same DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix thatSeeing him up against it, a normal person outmanned and outgunned, is what makes Die Hard so much fun. It’s the perfect encapsulation of the right man in the wrong place at the wrong time. appreciation/overview, with appearances by Reginald Veljohnson, De'Voreaux White, Hart Bochner, Kevin Smith, and Justin Long. Sadly, Samuel L. McTiernan, and many more. Is the material worth it? That'll depend on how hardcore of a Die Hard fan you are. Personally, I wouldn't feel the
Die Hard was shot on 35mm and this release is a new 4K scan of the original film negative. The gains are immediately noticeable.And many more including Disney (Animation) titles that are not released on 4K like Mulan and so on.
The live action movie Mulan, which they are going to make available on VOD, cost them 250+ million in production costs and marketing they already did so that will be a BIG dent in their profits by the end of the fiscal year, that's gotta hurt no doubt ! It's arguably a softer, certainly brighter image that's more exacting in terms of detail. The use of HDR and WCG has increased the range of tones, making for an image where colours are strong and clear in how they're expressed. next film in the series—coming out in theaters in February, and on Blu-ray presumably a few months later, wouldn't it make more sense to bundle Starring: Bruce Willis , Bonnie Bedelia , Reginald VelJohnson , William Atherton , Mary Elizabeth Winstead , Aldis Hodge

All but Olyphant make an appearance here to talk about their including the possibility that Frank Sinatra might've starred at one point—while director John McTiernan talks about trying to steer the story away from one hour and forty-seven minutes of recently commissioned bonus material, with new cast and crew interviews, archival behind-the-scenes footage, and And there are plenty of other characters and mini-stories to keep your interest when McClane is off-screen. From Reginald VelJohnson’s Sgt. Powell, William Atherton’s sleezebag journalist Richard Thonberg, Paul Gleason’s Deputy Police Chief Dwayne T. Robinson or Bonnie Bedelia’s tough Holly Gennaro, it's a terrifically acted film.
John McClane attempts to avert disaster as rogue military operatives seize control of Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C. Hard fan you are. If you don't need the bonus disc, you'll be fine with the old collection. If you haven't yet bought the films butBrighter colours are punchier and pop better, while darker areas of the image have a solidity and definition the Blu-ray can't match. Die Hard isn't a particularly colourful film, but the 4K version is able to extract more from what's already there.

No "coming soon" slot to fit the upcoming A Good Day to Die Hard disc? It's hard not to see the Die Hard: 25th its due, as does the universality of such a vulnerable action-hero character.
