![]() ![]() The level of detail present in this scene, and the depth of field is quite simply breathtaking and reminds you just what a top quality Blu-ray transfer can provide. ![]() In contrast to the first film, they arrive on a gorgeous looking tropical beach, rock formations jutting out into the bay. Scenes that stood out in the cinema, such as the peppering of Caspian's bed by crossbow bolts, are as stunning here as they were in the cinema.Īpart from the castle attack, Adamson does not use this palette again, instead opening the world of Narnia up right from the moment when the Pevensies enter the world. The architecture is beautifully reproduced by the set designers, and Blu-ray certainly does their work justice. Just look, for example, at the detail in the castle walls. Thankfully, the transfer has absolutely no problem rendering the detail present in these early scenes, even with the way it is shot. This is a challenging look that could push home cinema to the limit. The first few scenes of the film, when Narnia is under Telmarine control, is shot through with a crushed colour palette, and the use of a blue, dark light. The result is that Adamson uses a clever picture technique. Whereas the first film gradually showed the transfer from winter through to summer, there is no such obvious contrast to be shown here. One thing that could not be criticised in the cinema was the way the film looked, and I am pleased to say that this fidelity is carried forward into the Blu-ray release, which is presented in a theatrically correct 2.40:1 ratio, and is of course in 1080PĪdamson is certainly more adventurous in his choice of palette and camera movement than he was in the first film, and this is brought out well in the transfer on the disc. ![]()
