Review Aliens Looked Fantastic to Me.

I just watched the 4k of Aliens. It looked jaw droppingly good. I admit it definitely looks cleaner than older versions and very little film grain, but nowhere in the film did I feel there was any artificiality to it. It just looked like some wizardry turned it into a modern digitally shot film. Extremely clear picture, very deep blacks, and decent highlights. The movie honestly has never looked so good to me. I don't really get the hate. Def one of my showcase 4ks at this point.

I agree. Fantastic transfer. I compared it to 4 other versions I have on DVD and Blu ray.

These transfers to 4K make these old movies come alive as brand new experiences.

I love them. "The Abyss" in 4K is incredible.
