Opinions on the 4K and Blu-ray image quality are divided, with some praising the 4K transfer and others criticising the transfers, while colour impressions include reports of a darker picture.

The overall rating distribution is strongly weighted towards five-star ratings, though that aggregate does not explain individual views.
