Ferdinand is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment with a 2160p transfer in 2.39:1. Despite being finished at "only" a 2K DI, this 4K presentation shows rather significant...
I gave top marks to the 1080p Blu-ray version's nice sounding DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 track, and the Dolby Atmos track on this 4K UHD disc simply takes that excellence and (literally in some cases) elevates...

If you're going into Ferdinand expecting a literal and faithful recreation of a children's book classic, you're likely to be a little disappointed. I was - at first. But then I got into the fun of the...

Based upon Munro Leaf’s children’s book “The Story of Ferdinand” Ferdinand is a coming of age adventure about a gentle giant, that doesn’t conform to the preconceived notions about the aggressive nature...
