The Abyss 4K Blu-Ray
4 out of 5 stars
The Abyss 4K Blu-Ray
When ordered, the delivery date was given for 11th-15th June. In fact, it arrived on 10th so I was more than happy. The provided photo is of the reverse of the case and, as you can see, the text language is Italian. Fear not, the discs present a full option of viewing languages including English. After years of waiting for a decent 16:9 presentation of both versions of the movie, I was not disappointed. I don't have a 4K player or TV so having to shell out over the odds for a disc that I probably won't ever play is annoying. Maybe, at some point in the future, a 2K only Blu-ray version will be made available at a more reasonable price. This is the reason I've given 4 stars rather than 5.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning video and audio rendering of a 35 year old classic
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 December 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This is the kind of blu ray that vindicates me for plunging into the 4K disc medium, and the perfect vindication if you do own the kit. A classic movie close to my heart, one of the finest technical achievements in film to this day (see the extras...), and best of all, it's such a good example of how beautiful 4K movies can look and sound (Dolby Atmos!) in disc format when they're scanned, rendered etc. properly. And you can't even get the extended version in the UK, which makes me feel slightly smug too, if I'm honest! Looks like it was shot yesterday, undoubtedly better than it ever looked in cinemas, and while the special effects (which pioneered technologies that went on into T2) look a little dated - it's not that bad and I gloss over them with fond memories anyway...but after 35 years at the pace our tech moves, that's an incredible statement!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic in 4K - A Review for UK Customers
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 December 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This review isn't for the The Abyss, it's a classic in 4k! This review is for anyone in the UK wondering if it's worth ordering from ÍøÆغÚÁÏ US. The answer is yes! It plays on my Sony 4k player & it arrived in perfect condition six days early. Unless Mr Cameron removes the rat scene (not likely!), it'll never be released in the UK.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a Cameron-Great Film is Released on Blu-Ray!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 November 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I remember seeing this film in the cinema when it was released. I didn't expected much from the film, but it exceeded all my expectations. Then, I found out there was an extended version, a much better version, of The Abyss, and now it is released in crisp, clean Blu-Ray!

    For those who are wondering what the film is about...get ready for a film that's high octane, with memorable characters, a great action-drama, several heart-stopping moments, and with a finale that's unforgettable. For me, the finale is one of my all-time favorites. I bought the Blu-Ray and had it shipped to UK; so glad I did! Well worth the shipping cost (much of which was discounted by ÍøÆغÚÁÏ; thanks, ÍøÆغÚÁÏ!).

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 December 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I Got this at Christmas and it plays on my 4K player (in the UK), just as any other disc does.
    It’s an American import, so it takes two to three weeks to arrive at your door from the day of ordering.
    I’ve read that people have ordered The Abyss from all different European countries and it works fine, but the minor drawback is that the box has foreign writing on it, and you have to select English on the menu. Where with this American import, it’s as if you bought it from HMV for instance, (the box blurb is in English and there’s no having to select English on the pre menu).

    Although the picture shows a 4K UHD cover, the description says it’s a blu-ray, Don’t threat though, it is a 4K UHD disc.

    In fact there is three discs, a 4K UHD copy that has the theatrical and extended editions on it, a blu-ray which has the same, and then a special features disc.

    I have an LG TV, Panasonic 4K player and a LG Dolby Atmos surround sound system and the picture, and the sound I think are amazing, but this isn’t really a review of the film, I wrote this to help anyone who is not sure what version to order as it’s banned over here… I hope this helps.

    Thanks to the BBFC banning this in the UK due to the rat scene I had to buy this from the states for an okish price. Only stuck it on to see if it was region unlocked and can confirm that it is and worked perfectly on my PS5 and it looked glorious. Great transfer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The only way to get it in the UK in 4K
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 June 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Bought my copy from Uniqueplace-UK. Arrived a couple of days late, but in perfect condition. Well worth the 2 week wait (came from Switzerland).
    Unfortunately, the BBFC have refused to allow any complete version of this film to be available in the UK since the Special Edition was released on DVD around 20 years (maybe more) ago. Basically, the BBFC refuse to release it without having the scene involving a rat being placed underwater completely cut. Cameron has refused to cut the scene, so it has never been released in the UK on blu-ray and, whilst originally a UK release was meant for the 4K version, the inclusion of this scene made them cancel its UK release. This means that the only way you can get The Abyss in 4K is to buy a version from another country.

    Fortunately, 4K Blu-Rays are region free so you can enjoy a foreign release in the UK. The version I bought is the Italian release (purchased from Switzerland) and, whilst the cover is in Italian, it prompts you to select country version when it first loads, allowing you to have all the menus in English and it includes the 7.1 Dolby True HD English soundtrack. It loads straight to the film rather than the menus and seems to default to the Theatrical Version. If you want the Special Edition version (and you do) then simply launch the menu, choose Set Up and switch versions.

    The 4K release is, as expected, beautiful and a 1000 times better than the previous releases I've had on VHS and DVD, making all the dark underwater scenes more vivid and clear.

    The film itself, is (in my opinion) one of Cameron's best and the Special Edition is by far the best version to have been released. Fully recommend both the film and this wonderful (finally!) 4K version.

    Ordered from ÍøÆغÚÁÏ USA as not available in UK.

    Still keepiing dvd 2 disc special edition as Jim Cameron went to town on the did menu system which is still hard to beat to this day. I imagine the special edition dvd version is quite a collectors item for the above reason and may be quite valuable.

    Not disappointed with the 4k, bluray and digital download and delivery service.

    Many Thanks

    5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably James Cameron's most underrated film
    Reviewed in the United States on 20 November 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This movie blew me away 30 years ago, and still does to this day - even more so with this brand new 4K UHD release. Completely remastered picture and sound for a stellar home theater experience. Rightly includes both the theatrical and special edition of the film. If you've never experienced the special edition, this would be a great release to experience it with. It's definitely a superior, albeit longer version of the film, and really what was originally intended to be released (I believe).

    Also includes great bonus features and digital copy of the movie, so there's nothing to be lacking on this release here.

    He comprado esta película varias veces en el pasado en el formado DVD y no cumplia con las espectativas de que lo anuncian Widescreen y no es cierto. En esta ocasión lo compré en Blu Ray y 4K, y me encantó. Para mi es la mejor película de James Cameron, sobre todas las demas, aunque Aliens, Terminator son excelentes también, me quedo con ABYSS. Excelente historia y sobre todo en concepto de alienigenas abisales. Lo mejor de lo mejor.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Arriva finalmente The Abyss in una versione più che dignitosa
    Reviewed in Italy on 23 May 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Gli appassionati hanno atteso a lungo questa uscita... Il Bluray non era mai stato prodotto e il precedente DVD aveva un'immagine non anamorfica ma in uno schifosissimo formato letterbox che mandava a fondo (è il caso di dirlo) la risoluzione video.

    Ora, uno dei film più attesi di James Cameron esce finalmente in una versione rimasterizzata con, al solito, una scelta di marketing decisamente incomprensibile. Il cliente cioè è costretto ad acquistare la singola versione da ben 30 euro che comprende il Bluray, la versione a 4K e il disco degli inserti speciali. Perchè non prevedere almeno due versioni più economiche? Una per il bluray e una per il 4K?

    Per l'appassionato di cinema resta comunque un acquisto obbligato, vediamo di capire perchè:

    IL FILM - 5 STELLE: The Abyss, che al botteghino fu un tonfo è presentato anche nella versione Director's Cut con 31 minuti di film aggiuntivi che danno senso a tutta la pellicola che nei cinema era stata mutilata risultando così indigesta per una gran parte del pubblico.
    Il film è come sempre narrato da Cameron con grande perizia e un'ottima caratterizzazione dei personaggi. Purtroppo, come tutti i film di questo regista, non è esente da una vena propagandistica ma il messaggio pacifista finale riesce a smorzarne leggermente i toni. Resta il grande valore delle riprese realizzate davvero sott'acqua con incredibile resa e perizia che valgono da sole tutto il film comunque piacevole.

    QUALITA' VIDEO - 5 STELLE: il lavoro di rimasterizzazione e pulizia dell'immagine è davvero incredibile. C'è da rilevare che è stata tolta la grana naturale che faceva parte della pellicola originale e questo potrebbe dar fastidio agli appassionati più incalliti ma la qualità raggiunta, l'equilibrio dei colori, la profondità dei neri e il livello di dettaglio è talmente stupefacente che è possibile sorvolare sulla decisione di Cameron di pulire l'immagine anche dalla grana originale della pellicola. Un lavoro di restauro eccellente che non può non emozionare restituendo tutta la forza delle incredibili riprese subacquee.

    QUALITA' AUDIO - 4 STELLE: l'audio originale in lingua inglese è assolutamente di riferimento e realizzato in Dolby Atmos 7.1.4 Mentre l'audio francese e tedesco è in Dolby DTS HD 5.1 Per l'audio italiano un misero Dolby Digital segno evidente che il produttore italiano non ha fatto alcun lavoro per regalarci una traccia audio all'altezza.

    AUTHORING - 3 STELLE: Authoring essenziale senza guizzi creativi ma purtroppo questa sembra essere la tendenza ultimamente. Peccato perchè oggi i bluray li acquistano soltanto i veri appassionati dato che ormai quasi tutti usufruiscono della visione in streaming e un'attenzione maggiore a questo pubblico sarebbe assai apprezzata.

    CONTENUTI SPECIALI - 5 STELLE: fortunatamente è presente un bluray dedicato ai soli contenuti speciali che sono abbastanza corposi e ben strutturati. E' presente un documentario dell'epoca che mostra i molti aspetti interessanti della realizzazione e un'intervista recente di James Cameron che parla del film raccontando vari aneddoti molto interessanti. Presenti fotografie, storyboard e altre chicche. Purtroppo assente il commento di James Cameron che per questo film, ha probabilmente deciso di non realizzarlo.

    In conclusione possiamo dire che si tratta di un must have per tutti gli appassionati che trova finalmente il suo posto dopo anni di attesa. Per cinefili e collezionisti si tratta sicuramente di un'opera da aggiungere al proprio catalogo e il lavoro di restauro è davvero eccellente. Versione italiana purtroppo sempre con qualche nota negativa, in questo caso, l'audio.

Dolby Vision picture means HDR features look fantastic, especially on an OLED screen.
