Its fair to say that 1976 was the year everyone went to the theatre and watched the much anticipated remake of the 1933 classic,ofcourse nothing can compare to the 1933 original and the remarkable stop motion effects of Willis Obrien however given the resources he had make ups legend Rick Baker gave everything he could to bring the giant ape back to the big screen..and yes that is Rick Baker playing Kong...and to audiences of the day being 1976 King Kong was a box office smash. This new 4k UHD is a remarkable resotration,the added Dolby Vision brightens up the picture and makes the colour pop like never before,the scenes on Skull Island are bold and vibrant however be prepared for a fine layer of film grain throughout,yet even with the 4K upgrade the effects done in the day seem to hold up quite well considering. The original 2.0 Stereo mix seems to be the best way to listen to the film however if you have the ability to put your surround receiver into DTS Nueral X you will get a clear centre channel throw with the surrounds kicking in quite well when needed. A clear winner compared to the previously released Blurays and you do get an additional Bluray with the package which includes the 3hr and 10min television cut in 1080p plus a variety of interviews with crew who worked on the film. Highly recommended for any Kong fan.
