Midway is a film I really wanted to like, I won't go into plot details but rather talk about picture quality.
This is my first disappointment with a 4K UHD title, a film that should've shined on a 4K enabled TV but spectacularly fails. With artificially added grain to make this look like an older film, to shoddy and soft looking CGI effects. The HDR usage is far too strong on this movie with explosions and bullets so bright orange and reds popping on-screen, to over saturation of colours especially whites being far too white, and blacks that were disappointing. It could be my set-up, but I tried every contrast setting, and film settings on my TV and the only time this movie looked good is with HDR turned off.
Picture Quality ⭐⭐⭐
Sound Quality ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Is it worth the upgrade... No.
