The biggest frustration, as it was with Mad Max: Fury Road, is some pretty stark and distracting inconsistency in the quality of the image from scene to scene. With all this in mind, I wasn’t that surprised to find the Batman V Superman UHD visuals rather hit and miss - enough to class as a slight disappointment overall. I also couldn’t help but recall the visual inconsistency of Warner’s Mad Max: Fury Road Ultra HD Blu-ray ( reviewed here). Plus while some IMAX effects were apparently rendered in 4K, most digital effects shots - of which, of course, there are many! - were almost certainly initially rendered in 2K. There are also some questions over the film’s native resolution namely that while the film was rendered in a 4K digital intermediate presumably used for the UHD BD master, it appears the film was largely upscaled to that from a lower filming resolution.
