Score: 66

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

Despite impressive video and audio quality, 'The Nutcracker and the Four Realms' falls short with a lacking story and minimal supplementary content. Rental at best.

Video: 90

Translating the raw spectacle expertly, The Nutcracker and the Four Realms on Blu-ray boasts an exceedingly hearty 1080p transfer with rich textures, precise skin tones, and robust colors. Shot on 35mm film, the vivid and diverse color palette, fine grain structure, and solid black levels provide a stunning, reference-quality experience.

Audio: 75

For the Blu-ray release of 'The Nutcracker and the Four Realms,' Disney offers a DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 track featuring excellent clarity, depth, and seamless surround integration, particularly highlighting instrumental music and ambient effects. Dialogue is crisp, and while the low end isn't thunderous, it is effective.

Extra: 26

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms Blu-ray extras, though limited, include insightful conversations with Misty Copeland on her dual roles as dancer and actor, behind-the-scenes set design and costume creation discussions, a brief collection of deleted scenes, and two evocative music videos by Andrea Bocelli and Lang Lang.

Movie: 31

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms delivers stunning visuals and intricate set designs, but ultimately falls short with a lackluster and derivative storyline, overshadowing its potential with a focus on style over substance.
