Kill Bill 4k is pretty mediocre.

I know I know, it’s a 2K DI upscale. I found out after purchasing but it wouldn’t matter since I need to add it to my collection anyway.

But after waiting years for this to be announced, I just wish it was better. Sure the color accuracy is much better, the HDR adds a nice touch, and the audio track sounds fantastic.

But the movie just doesn’t look sharp, crisp or clean. You’re not going to see every pore and strand of hair like you would with something restored from the 35mm OCN.

I wish Tarantino didn’t finish this in a 2k DI. I understand why he did at the time, but it’s a real shame this restoration couldn’t come from an OCN. It just lacks that crystal clear picture quality you’d see in Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction.

I’d give it a 3.5/5 in picture quality. It barely looks like a 4k movie. More like a fan made AI upscale of the Blu-ray.

Here’s hoping we can get From Dusk Til Dawn next, from the OCN. Wondering how Jackie Brown will turn out too, haven’t looked into it yet.
