Snatched 4K (2017) Ultra HD 2160p REMUX Review
Snatched is presented on 4K UHD courtesy of 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment with a 2160p transfer in 2.40:1. I haven't been able to track down any definitive technical data on the film, but I'm assuming this was finished at a 2K DI. There's the typical uptick in detail that we generally see in 4K UHD versions of such product, with elements like fabrics and even wrinkles on faces more clearly discernable in this version. The upgrade in resolution is not always kind to the proceedings, however, with what looks much more like a green screened background in an early restaurant scene between Emily and her boyfriend, and especially a much more artificial looking scene at the cliffside when the women are supposedly being led to safety by Roger. Some of the most interesting differences come courtesy of HDR, with minor elements like the blue dress Emily wears when they first get to the Ecuadorian hotel having a much richer, even royal, hue. The film's tendency toward a slightly yellow tint is also more prevalent, or at least noticeable, in this version. Shadow detail in several dark scenes, especially the brief prison sequences, is improved in this version as well.

I am giving this movie a ten to help offset all the 1 star ratings. Really, 1 star?? There has to be personal issues with Amy Schumer and reviews are not about the movie. I almost didn't go due to the negative reviews, but they were so awful I thought to myself, "These people are rating Amy Schumer, not the movie".

That being said, I liked it. I laughed throughout the movie and enjoyed myself which is my goal when going to see a comedy. Yes, some of the jokes were pushing it but I love the realness of her humor. I can relate to the experience her character has even if the experiences are exaggerated for humor. It's just as entertaining as Zoolander, Anchorman, etc.

You're not going to discover the human soul watching this film but it's funny and an enjoyable movie. Goldie Hawn is lovely.

I say ignore the haters, get some popcorn and enjoy this comedy.
