Ambient noises of fans screaming and yelling, music playing in a city club, or of stage lights turning on all sound off nicely. The height speakers give way to screaming fans in balconies or casino sounds that might come from above.

It’s on a BD-100 and that was a wise choice for a film with a runtime of 2 hours and 39 minutes, as it never misses a beat. Also, you’ll see Elvis really did have love at an early age for attending and sometimes even sneaking into gospel tents to hear the music, which influenced him dearly.That being said, this is an original take on the life and career of Elvis which succeeds in a lot of areas.

All and all, “Elvis” [2022] on 4K UHD Blu-ray earns itself a perfect 5 rating for audio quality with an Atmos mix that certainly performed absolutely exquisitely for this type of film. Central to that journey is one of the most significant and influential people in Elvis's life,Priscilla Presley (Olivia DeJonge).

Luhrmann's direction and the film's editing, there's just too much wrong (or at least off) to ignore. When set in the '50s, the film grain is on display and the color palette is more neutral and vague with yellows, tans, and greys on display. Costume Designer Catherine Martin discusses all the major costumes for the film and how much work went into them. All is not lost, though, as the shining light that nearly holds the picture together is Austin Butler ( The Shannara Chronicles) as Elvis.It's exactly as you would expect of a modern studio blockbuster – an awful lot of EPK-style fluff, interspersed with far too many clips of the film you’ve just watched. The quieter sequences also take advantage of the spatial audio, providing ambience and atmospherics to family gatherings at Graceland or carnival exteriors. Based on my observations via my 4K UHD Blu-ray player, this runs bitrates as high as 85 to 100Mbps roughly what I saw it peak at. SHORT: The film explores the life and music of Elvis Presley, seen through the prism of his complicated relationship with his enigmatic manager, Colonel Tom Parker.

No, its not an impression or mimicry, there’s a desire to give this thing a soul and it just emanates a vibe throughout the film that sucks you and impresses you from time to time with some nontraditional choices. Elvis" is a must-watch not just for fans of the King, but for anyone who appreciates the power of transformative storytelling brought to life by an exceptional performer. The slight softening of the image around the edges of the frame and within it as a result of the anamorphic process employed and those custom lenses seems perfectly apt for the period and isn’t as obtrusive at all as one might suspect.WONKA — The Magical Adventure of a Young Chocolate Maker Comes Home on 4K, Blu-ray and DVD on February 27th! Less successful is Hanks’ Parker – underneath a mountain of prosthetics and a wandering and very questionable accent, Parker veers between having an honest love for the boy he found on that Hayride stage back in 1953 and his pantomimic manipulation and exploitation for personal gain, and there’s just something about the role that never quite lands. Also, unlike any previous biographies about Elvis, this one ended up being approved (after release) by Priscilla Presley and Lisa Marie Presley as discussed in this Entertainment Weekly article.
