US BR & 4K Releases for March & April 2020

If you missed seeing the new Kristen Stewart underwater horror/thriller when it zipped in-and-out of theaters, it might not be on your radar. And even though it doesn't bring much new to the genre, it is 95-minutes of fun that will give your home theater a real workout! The movie features some of the biggest bass energy I've experienced in a film in a LONG time! Sadly, it is just a 5.1-channel DTS-HD mix, not Atmos, but it upmixes VERY nicely, delivering a very immersive experience. Also, since there will be no 4K HDR disc, and this is a film that really benefits from the added dynamic range and resolution (shot in ArriRaw at 6.5k and a true 4K DI), the Store download is the very BEST way to experience it. Check out my review here:

Underwater - cineluxe

John Sciacca says the Kristen "One Note" Stewart horror/thriller "Underwater" might not have been a hit at the box office, but it supplies plenty of big scares, and its atmosphere & action are definitely kicked up a notch by Kaleidescape's 4K HDR/DTS-HD Master transfer.

Thanks John, I was actually surprised that I enjoyed the movie, not normally a fan of Horror films (too much of the usual), but to me this was less Horror, and more action/drama. It was certainly entertaining, and worth watching.

Probably yes, the only Paramount title that has not made it to the store is the third Cloverfield movie which supposedly has an excellent ATMOS mix.
 
I saw to catch a thief new release has a new master and colour timing plus true hd 5.1 track. I wonder if Kaleidescape will get this ?????

as the older version is available in the store how does K usually do remasters ???

cheers
 
Dear Jim, I am letting you know that I will not be requesting from you a refund for Dr. Dollittle :D. Besides being a welcome Family Fun Escape perfect for the new global paradigm, it is a pure 2 hours of wonderful HDR wide color gamut pristine eye candy. Highly recommended! :)

:LOL::ROFLMAO: I had forgotten all about that Peter. Sorry @cinelife but I'll have to claim my refund ;) - quite simply no amount of HDR wide colour gamut/eye candy could make up for a quite horrendous movie experience and performance from an accomplished actor. Sorry but it was quite possibly the worst movie I've ever watched - dreadful fare. Sadly a few hours of my life I'll never get back.

I made the most of it by falling asleep after 20 mins. Advantage of having daybed seating 😉
Kids enjoyed it though.
 
Thanks guys, I got a good laugh out of those posts! (Send me the email you use for your store account.)

We all watch so many films there will always be a few that waste our time! My kids liked it (generally), probably because they are all involved in acting to some extent, so they played with the manufactured accents (kind of like what RDJ did).:D

I haven’t this movie available on any streaming service, so who knows. I was surprised to see that this is available on disc in HD with Atmos.

A Pity because the 4th Act in Cloverfield 10 where the Bigfoot Sphinctermouth Creature stomps above the shed literally Drops the Hippopotamus on top of you, as very few other tracks with concussive crushing pressure from the tops. Supposedly the disc Atmos Mix in C Paradox is reference quality too, Something to keep an eye/ear for.;)
