Video Review

The video was ok. It was exactly what I'd expect from streamed video content. Even though it is listed as using HDR I couldn't tell. And this is the current downside of streaming high quality content from the "major" services like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney. The original file is compressed which degrades the quality even if you have the required equipment and download speeds to view it.

Sound Review

This movie was also listed as having Dolby Atmos sound but in true audio file streaming fasion, the Atmos and surround sounds are minimal and low in volume. But there's plenty of LFE! I found that there are more effects used in the surrounds than the Atmos speakers. And much of the movie score is heard from the Atmos speaers. Im' sure that the sound wouod be amazing from a 4K disc or maybe Kaliedescape.
