https://desmonddoss.com/bio/bio-real.phpMy Thoughts – This is an incredible true war story, story of courage and a story of following one’s beliefs no matter the cost. Performances are excellent, and the story of Desmond Doss is in my opinion not to be missed.
Video : 4.5 / 5 - The 4K video, while upscaled, is excellent. Detail and color are top notch, as are black levels. This is a reference disc in my opinion.
Audio : 5 / 5 - The Dolby Atmos sound track on this disc is top notch. Surrounds get a workout during battle scenes, as will your subwoofer. My room shudders during the battleship shelling scenes.
A reference audio track all around.
Conclusion : this has become both a favorite war movie / biography and a demo worthy disc. Highly recommended.
