Obvious candidates come in the form of the fantastic holo tech sequences, which were amidst the best highlights that the 3D format had to offer, and which are given a surprising amount of pop thanks to HDR and WCG, so much so that, even without the added dimension, they give a good impression of having one. Of course, as we all know by now, 4K improvements are largely nothing without the HDR and WCG enhancements that have grown to define the format, and Prometheus makes the most of these too. It's a majestic environment rich for harvesting, and the presentation laps up as much as the 2K can afford, leaving only the most stubborn AV aficionados likely to stick to their argument that this offers little improvement over the Blu-ray. It doesn't quite warrant a perfect 10 score, but it does look pretty damn spectacularĮven on its 1080p Blu-ray release, Prometheus looked spectacular, so this Ultra HD Blu-ray release has some great material to work with and largely makes the most of it, providing a nice little uptick in detail that affords finer observation of the intricately designed ships, clothing, space suits, and alien elements.
