Seven (Se7en) (30th Anniversary)

I think it is in a sense definitive. Some people will say the additions, which most will not notice, were not all needed, and some of the refinements to grain might be a bit more than some hoped for, but this is not some James Cameron AI-fest with waxy faces and poorly added AI details. It's a clear step up from what we had before. I'll be honest, I barely noticed any of the additions. The only thing I did notice was some wobbly grain on the scenes they redid in the car ride up to the finale. I know Fincher hated those shots, and they've definitely used some tech there, but it also looks a lot nicer than before too. Grain was very fine throughout, and probably cleaned up, but overall I didn't notice much else. I thought the clouds at the end were done extremely well, and most of the other stuff just flies by. It looks gorgeous, or it looks as good as it can for the subject matter. You could tweak more or tweak a little less. In the end I think Fincher did this release very well overall, and I have very few complaints. He fixed a lot of stuff, but he didn't go into James Cameron territory to ruin his film. Think Blade Runner: The Final Cut rather than True Lies. Colors are amazing. Detail is definitely a decent step up from any previous bluray. Blacks have been lightened a touch, which I am thankful for as the previous bluray was absurdly dark. HDR is as it should be. There are some absolutely stunning scenes here that will stick in your mind. Seven remains a masterpiece in filmmaking and storytelling. They just don't make them like this anymore. An easy recommendation on 4K.

Positive: Excellent film, beautiful remaster in 4K Negative: The packaging is absolutely AWFUL - you can hardly get the disc out and when you do you've put your finger prints all over it. Blu Ray players are notoriously sensitive to finger prints. Even when it looked clean, the disc skipped. I want the manufacture to provide a new proper case to replace this piece of crap.

Love this movie, excellent 4k transfer the only negative point about this is the cardboard packaging that the discs needs to slide in

Great picture quality upgrade , and no Dolby Atmos but the but the DTS sound track is still brilliant , a great movie and not for the faint hearted , can be very graphic , but rated 18+ for a reason , must have for your 4K library

La película no ha perdido en 30 años el impacto de su narrativa, lo genuino de sus interpretaciones y, si acaso, la relevancia de sus temas han cobrado mayor peso. La remasterización del video es de gran calidad, incluso para un blu-ray que ya se veía bastante bien, las "mejoras" por i.a. son minúsculas y probablemente no las notarás salvo seas fan acérrimo de la película. El audio bajó de 7.1 canales a 5.1, es un tanto más potente y frontal pero con un rango ligeramente más reducido, aun así de gran calidad. El empaque es atractivo con artwork de escenas memorables, sin embargo, el disco viene incrustado dentro del cartón y esto es: 1. Un problema ya que se puede raspar con el tiempo e ir deteriorando al grado de causar problemas con la lectura, y 2. Es incómodo para sacarlo del cartón. Si la película no fuera una obra maestra, le quitaría una o dos estrellas por el empaque.
