Jordan Peele's Nope is an interesting film, and nothing akin to what I thought it would be going in.
It's an oddly fun film that walks a delicate line between horror, thriller, supernatural and a bit of comedy.
But for me, it was the cinematography that took center stage. Shot on 65/5 and 65/15 by Hoyte van Hoytema, you'll want to see his night skies in 4k, for their interesting blend of mixed media. Nothing that I've experienced previously.
There's an interesting article here, by Bill Desowitz:
My advice, is to go in cold and enjoy, especially since it's an absolutely reference quality 4k from Universal, with a varied aspect ratio - 2.20 and 1.78.
Image - 5 (HDR)
Audio – 5 (Dolby Atmos)
Pass / Fail – Pass
Plays nicely with projectors - Yes
Makes use of and works well in 4k - 5
Highly Recommended
