Ghost in the Shell [4k + Blu-ray + Digital]

Greate to see old anime in 4k. Love it.

A stunning movie of being so worried about the lack of evidence of your reality you tell everyone about it- no that’s the bad one forgive me I happened to overload myself of “Ghost in the Shell.” I had already watched the movie and the sequel years before and decided to come back as part of my Mamoru Oshii Marathon. slow as a marathon can be I ended up reading the manga and postponing rewatching the movie, I rewatched the sequel after this and watched the 2.0 version (dubbed). Then I watched the live action remake, I think that movie was good, I allowed me to see what a movie that was a third of this movie lopped off and embalmed with Hollywood nonsense would be like. I decided to come full circle and buy this 4k Blu ray to really put a finish on my “Ghost in the Shell Experience.” As the for the quality of the product itself, it is nice to have, love to Oshii for directing this masterpiece.

Great movie, especially if you love anime. The 4k hd dvd looks and sounds great. Comes in a cheap plastic no thrills case, but with a 4k hd dvd and blueray discs, along with a digital download voucher

Wow, the 4K is amazing! Long time fans of this will absolutely love what they've done here. It looks and sounds amazing. Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos! Unfortunately, there are bad actors giving this movie one star because of "censorship." I loathe censorship. I also have all editions of this movie, and certify it is 100% true to the original edition with zero censorship. The artwork on the physical case that houses the disc has been altered (censored) ever so slightly to cover a weapon and to remove nipples. If you buy movies to frame the cases as artwork, by all means you should be upset about this, and if you don't this is a non-factor, or at the most an extremely mild disappointment. Too many sweaty wannabe intellectuals attacking a great release over something that doesn't even impact the film. 10/10 for a great movie and great 4K!

Don't believe the one star reviews, it's only the slip cover that might be censored. (I throw them away, I don't want to remove multiple layers to get to the disc), And yes the song at the end credits is different, it's not that important, while that is an insult to the people who created the original soundtrack, it's not worth freaking out. The censorship on the slip cover is because these items are on display in public places, (and as we all know if you child sees a lady's nipples their head will literally explode) As far as the music at the end credits, as I said it is an insult, and should not have been done, but we don't know if there was a legitimate reason for doing that, not being a fan of eno, I wish they had used something else. Now for the movie itself, the sound is much better than either the DVD special edition or the 25th anniversary Blu-ray, not only because it is Atmos, but there were a lot more sounds that I couldn't hear in the other discs that I heard in this one. And the picture is amazing in Dolby Vision, if your TV plays that. It's brighter and you can see more detail. Also I thought I read that the subtitles had been changed, So, I revisited parts of my DVD and did not see where they were changed, if there really were any changes I'm pretty sure that they were an improvement. Rest assured that this movie has not been censored or majorly changed.

4K is great and all. Love the choice of spoken languages being available in Dolbyworld.But to be honest, I'm not sure that this was much of a visual upgrade to the blu ray versions I already own. Still looks great, and a worthy add, if you're a fan of the movie.

Ghost in the Shell is so iconic and awesome. If you're on the fence, check it out. Highly recommend!

I’ve been waiting for a great price and I couldn’t have asked for a better one! This is one of my all time favorite Anime films and it’s in 4K. Great quality!

思ったよりも良い

Looks incredible in 4K. Perfect.

Must have for anime fans sound track through a 9.1 atmos speaker set up is amazing

Packaging quality and disk quality could be better. I was worried that the disk would shatter in my ps5, luckily it didn’t. Video quality seems to be okay, I’m not an expert on Ghost in the Shell rereleases and after all it is an old movie. Content wise - movie is great and I really like the interview with creators.

Visually, an absolutely astonishing improvement, the HDR, the color vibrancy... night and day difference. 5 stars. The 4k disc's Dolby Atmos audio mix vs the standard Bluray's DTS-HD mix is a notable improvement as well. 4.5 stars.
