About this deal

Endlessly quotable and utterly iconic, Tony Scott's Tom Cruise-starring quintessential 80s aviation action thriller still stands up almost 35 years later, and looks better than ever in this absolutely stunning native 4K release with Dolby Vision and Atmos. Gaga's Hold My Hand track may not gel immediately, but its notes are seamlessly integrated across the proceedings, really informing some of the more momentous scenes, whilst OneRepublic's I Ain't Worried is an absolutely perfectly chosen, and utterly infectious pop track for the beach sequence. tearing across the terrain at low altitudes and high speeds, and pulling off a number of jaw-dropping manoeuvres.

Whether you're looking for the latest blockbuster release, a TV series you want to binge, or a classic film - you'll find what you need in our categories. The film has a variety of sequences that make use of close-up camera angles that show off the superb rendering of detail. There's a veritable tick box list of classic Top Gun clichés and each and every one of them is fabulously delivered with not only fist-pumping fan-service but also some degree of thought put into their necessity in the plot (playing ball-games on the beach is no longer just a product of having surplus baby oil).

There is also much to enjoy in scenes that aren’t actively intense as smaller elements in the background are articulated and dimensionally full. If you don’t know anything about Oblivion – have managed to avoid the more revealing trailers and promotional material – then I strongly recommend you book yourself some tickets and go see it on the biggest screen you can find. Europe's busiest forums, with independent news and expert reviews, for TVs, Home Cinema, Hi-Fi, Movies, Gaming, Tech and more. With the effects of the pandemic on the filmmaking industry still looming we as film fans needed something to remind us why we love movies and the theatrical experience.

And even if it's not the same watching it at home as it is up in larger than life IMAX, credit to Paramount for going above and beyond on the disc front. After serving for more than 30 years as one of the Navy's best test pilots and avoiding the advancement in rank that would see him grounded, Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell (Cruise) begins training recent Top Gun graduates for a new mission. Maverick's 4K Blu-ray also enjoys an equally reference Dolby Atmos track that implements 3D object-orientated HD surround sound design to somehow - almost impossibly - marry up to the visuals in terms of presentation perfection.Even managing the complications of shooting both in and out of cockpits, plane to plane, ground to plane, and so forth, the rulebook for cinematography - for any experienced cinematographer - had to be utterly rewritten. Spot on imaging and channel separation draw out both large and small sounds and allow their directional correlation based upon the onscreen events to be definable within the room’s acoustic boundaries.

Having said that, I have not tweaked the speakers since I got it except for the rears which were far too loud out of the box). I absolutely love how the drama and melodrama works alongside the action/thrills leveraging the emotion against the adrenaline.billion in worldwide box office and the highest grossing film of the producer/actor’s acclaimed career.

Take your pick, the sequences at Top Gun is San Diego, inside Penny’s Bar or in the air, look terrific, delivering the goods with eye catching goodness that put a smile on my face. My audio/video ratings are based upon a comparative made against other high definition media/blu-ray disc.I've mentioned before that movies in my home when I was growing up were chopped up versions on tv (with commercials) months or years down the road. For the week that ended on November 25th, Universal Pictures Home Entertainment's Oppenheimer (2023) took the top spot on the both the Blu-ray-only and overall packaged media charts, with demand for the 4K UHD edition strong enough to cause retail sell outs. While Tony Scott’s 1986 film was ground-breaking for its day, using actual Navy pilots and F-14s, the actors were always firmly on the ground, filmed in simulated cockpits with tight framing.
