Wise and Crichton at their best.
A worthwhile restoration to blu-ray.
Anybody who's into this type of movie will know the story, and of course will accept the fact that it is a 1971 film that's "of it's time".
It's very stylish and to the point telling of the "what if......"? question referencing space, and germ warfare etc.
The scenes differ from light to dark many times and there some "speckles" in the dark scenes, it's worse on an older non 4K tv, but acceptable on a 4K (movie not 4K).
The clarity/sharpness of the lighter scenes is good.
The extras are also worth a watch, explanations from Wise and Crichton, enlightening about the whole evolution of the process to final movie.Read full review...

Poor transfer to bd
This is not a review of the movie, which is excellent, it is about the arrow release of the so called restoration from a 4K scan of the original camera negative. The picture quality is very poor, very grainy, I expected much better quality. Better to buy the dvd and not blue ray. I will not be purchasing any more arrow releases in the future, I think it is just a money spinner for them.Read full review...
