Grain holds steady within the film's inherent patterns, spiking at times but often enjoying a stable, accurate presentation that The soundstage displays excellent channel separation with even, persuasive movement between the channels and very well-prioritized vocals in the center. When the F-14s scream across the screen, they fly by with ease while dynamic range remains stable without much distortion. Low-frequency effects are accurate and authoritative with powerful, thunderous roars. Rear activity comes alive during the dogfights, extending the soundfield with lots of action and commotion. The real winner, of course, is the score and song selection, filling the entire front soundscape and subtly bleeding into the surrounds for an effective and engaging presentation. Kosinski, and that film's cast discuss the original's impact and legacy, its style, favorite scenes and cultural quotables, and more. The piece ends with Barring more double-dips, re-masters, boxed sets, and 3D Conversions, the main reason I signed up for 'Top Gun 3D' is because I adore Tony Scott and this represents one of the last times to review, if not something new, something of his we've never seen (sort of). I have no idea whether he was involved with this process, other than he intended to make a sequel, but after watching this movie, it breaks my cinema-heart to know there will never been another new Tony Scott film. And despite my questions about the overall experience here, now more than ever I wonder what Tony Scott in native stereo would have been like? Insane, over the top, seizure-inducing, brilliant? Who knows, but man I loved his work.

Looking at the video review so far, it seems I've done nothing but heap butt-kissing praise onto this conversion. I merely intend to give credit where it is due. There's a lot of beautiful work in here, and it's crazy to think the movie still looks like itself, only deeper. Top Gunis almost 35 years old, but 4K has given it a whole new lease of life, with the relatively low budget production thankfully shot with some not insignificant style by Scott, and also thankfully shot on film, which leaves plenty of sequences from the film looking basically almost as good as they would today. It gets off to a slightly grainy start, with the opening shot, and that gives you a taste of what some of the individual frames may look like, particularly given the lighting and limitations of the source footage, but the aerial footage - by and large - is absolutely astounding; a real revelation in 4K, and far far better than ever before.

behind the more revealing native 4K presentation. It's still a treat that Blu-ray only buyers will find more than satisfying. A few shots here mark when Jester is briefing the pilots on Naval kill ratios during Korea and Vietnam. The Blu-ray yields a healthy color palette within the many warm In fact, smoke on the carrier sequences, as well as the interior of Viper's office, is perhaps the best use of 3D in the movie. There's also a terrific bit where, during the film's climax, a wing-mounted camera flies through the contrail just-formed by the Mig in front of us. These moments appear filmed-in-3D.

Detail is excellent, revelling in the nuances of the faces of the frequently sweaty core cast, with a loving layer of texture to it leaving you with no concerns whatsoever that the underlying detail may have been scrubbed away - sure, this is a clean print, but it's got no signs of excessive DNR implementation, merely affording the image a gorgeous clean-but-textured look. A freshly restored and converted 'Top Gun 3D' soars onto Blu-ray with an MPEG-4 MVC encode framed (for the most part) in the film's original 2.39:1 aspect ratio. Overall, it looks pretty damned sweet, though I have some reservations about the whole experience and one huge grievance with the release overall, but we'll get there in a minute. as top flight tandem, up against the likes of the cool, calm, collected, and first-class pilot call sign Iceman.

When it comes to double-dips, I typically skip reviewing the movie portion to save time, but considering the fact that our first 'Top Gun' review was for 2 Stars, and the second was for 3 Stars, I thought it would be funny if the third one was for 4 Stars (FWIW, it's my honest opinion). Who knows, maybe when Paramount releases the 4K Blu-ray 30th Anniversary Edition in 2016, that reviewer will adorn it with a full 5 Stars? Further, the 3D experience has a number of high points. The movie opens with the new 100th Anniversary Paramount Logo which, to no one's surprise, looks perfect. Seeing this first, I was immediately worried. How could a nearly-30 year old film compare to a CGI creation in terms of depths, color, resolution, clarity and all those things that make Pixar and Dreamworks CGI animated movies stunning HD demo material? As a Blu-ray, it's a much harder call. Most will be happy with the disc they have, given half of this release IS that very same disc. Aside from the new UltraViolet copy, the only reason to consider this Blu is the 3D ( no shit, Palmer), which is very well done, despite a few flaws. But I'm not sure the overall experience is enhanced, except that the movie now looks sometimes better in 3D than the aging 2D transfer (though the aging transfer does best the new version in places). Finally, the audio is terrific and loud and everything this movie needs it to be, and the Special Features remain surprisingly in-depth.
