Primal 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Review

Score: 70

from 1 reviewers

Review Date:

Primal's clash of ideas and Cage's performance mildly entertain; 4K UHD highlights shaky CGI, though technically solid.

Video: 73

Primal's 4K UHD release by Lionsgate, with improved details and HDR, showcases clearer scenes but highlights poor CGI, despite being captured at 8K. Note: Package lacks 1080 disc.

Audio: 73

Lionsgate's 4K UHD disc sports a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, similar to the previous 1080's Dolby TrueHD 5.1. Offers consistent, atmospherically rich soundscapes with clear dialogue, adding depth to the film's claustrophobic setting. Includes optional English and Spanish subtitles.

Extra: 76

The Making of Primal, in HD (9:11), comes from the 1080 release with a minor cut of two seconds. A digital copy is also included.

Movie: 36

Another week of Lionsgate's puzzling 4K releases, this time with 'Primal,' a critically lukewarm film. Its 4K strategy minus 1080 discs raises eyebrows, mirroring Nicolas Cage's career choices.
