Coppola believes that Apocalypse Now: Final Cut “looks better than it has ever looked, and sounds better than it has ever sounded,” and is “thrilled beyond measure to present the best version of the film to the world.”
The Apocalypse Now Final Cut restoration will be brought to life with Dolby Vision HDR, bringing entertainment to life through ultra-vivid picture quality. The 4K Combo Pack and Digital 4K release also feature Dolby Atmos audio mixed specifically for the home, to place and move audio anywhere in the room, including overhead. In addition, the film has been enhanced with Meyer Sound Laboratories’ newly developed Sensual Sound, a technology engineered to output audio below the limits of human hearing," said Lionsgate “All of these technologies work together to present Coppola’s true vision of the film, one that delivers deep, visceral visual and auditory impact.”
Critic Reviews:
- “A must-see theatrical experience, but the first cut remains the one worth preserving.” – Hollywood Reporter
- “The sound design and visuals have been vastly improved, and a judicious expansion of scenes featuring Robert Duvall (he who loved the smell of napalm in the morning) is also a welcome bonus.” – Herald Sun
- “Presented in stunning 4K quality and Dolby Atmos sound, ‘Apocalypse Now: Final Cut’ is the visceral experience Francis Ford Coppola has waited 40 years to deliver.” – The Jam Report
