Editor's Notes

Note

Universal's 2025 4K is Charlton Heston's disaster spectacle in native 4K with the original Sensurround low-frequency rumble preserved. Solid A-Tier video and audio but the disc ships barebones with zero extras. The John Williams score finally has the dynamic range to register. A US Steelbook variant is also out. The Towering Inferno and Poseidon Adventure are still missing in 4K.
