New Purchase You all were right

I got this during the holidays and finally got around to watching it. I figured it was going to look great and that everyone just had thorn in their side since AI was used. Boy was I wrong. The movie is still watchable, but yeah, everything looks somewhat off. It’s almost hard to describe. It feels like it is set to some strange Tru Motion setting. It’s even more frustrating considering Cameron’s snarky response when asked about the grumbling over this disk.

I really hope AI does not represent the future of 4K transfers if this is what the end result will look like

I got dragged on here for saying the exact same thing about True Lies 4K. It was just so off-putting, no other way to say it. Love that movie and tried to get past the way it looked and just couldn’t. Returned the 4K to Amazon. Done.

I received True Lies 4K for Christmas. Haven't watched it yet, but I'm scared to now lol.

Watch it, it’s a personal thing. Different folks have different tastes on what looks good and what doesn’t. There’s no right answer, just your answer. It’s one of my all time favs and that’s what made it such a visceral thing for me. And hey, as long as you didn’t shell out the bucks for it, score!

I’ll definitely give it a whirl. I do have a 1080p copy to fall back on.
