Horizon Chapter 1, 4K ATMOS.
PQ - excellent. Shot using 6K-8K digital cameras, mastered in 4K digital. Very beautiful looking movie.
SQ - I heard some good overhead sound effects. Overall pretty good SQ.
Writing/Story - I thought it was terrible.
I like Kevin Costner - he's among my favorite actors. I love most of his movies and especially Yellowstone. But man, I thought the writing/story of "Horizon Chapter 1" was just horrible. It was so unfocused. It must be terrible writing. Costner did a great job directing Dances with Wolves, so he must be a good director. So I assume "Horizon" just has terrible writing. 3+ hours of a huge mess to me. Curious to see what everyone else thinks.
I was thinking that if I were taking a change and used my own money to make a movie, I would hire the best screenwriter money I can afford. Writing is so important if not salient. Instead, he used somebody that has not much writing credits at all. Such a bad decision. Should have hired Taylor Sheridan or another great writer.
