Point Break, a 1991 release from Kathryn Bigelow is a thoroughly entertaining film - basically a California surfing police procedural, with great action and a terrific cast.
Shot on a higher speed stock than the just previously reviewed Titanic, there is requisite grain, and a generally slightly softer natural image. Part of that may come from being a generation down from the OCN, but Shout's new Select release, beautifully mimics an original 35mm print.
Dolby Vision adds a bit of help to the blacks, which may also bring in some contrast and thereby, perceived sharpness.
Additional scenes and featurettes will be found on the included Blu-ray disc.
Image – 10 (Dolby Vision)
Audio – 10 (DTS-HD MA 5.1)
Pass / Fail – Pass
Plays nicely with projectors - Yes
Makes use of and works well in 4k - 7
Worth your attention - 8
Slipcover rating - 1
Highly Recommended
