Great movie, purchased for digital copy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great Steven Spielberg movie. It's definitely a little slow compared to today's blockbusters, but it's worth a watch. I actually purchased this in the hope of redeeming in iTunes to automatically up-convert it to 4k. Unfortunately, that didn't work since it's a UV code.
This review is from Close Encounters of the Third Kind [Blu-ray] [1977]

The movie isn't as good as I thought, but ok
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While the movie is fairly well written and well directed, the story was not well orchestrated to deliver much entertainment. The pacing was not great and it seemed so similar to other movies in the zonra that it was not what I expected form Spielberg.

Great movie, but 4K not so much
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Close Encounters is a great movie regardless the format. However we didn’t think 4K added that much to the movie. A couple scenes were pretty cool, but overall the effects did not seem that much better than blu-ray.

Average
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this movie with the hopes of reliving the theater experience of a young boy. The quality is high, but the 4K transfer did not receive the boom I expected.

Not the best remaster
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic movie obviously, but I don’t feel like the 4K remaster is all that great or noticeable on this title.
