Do I get native 4K Ultra HD?

Yes. Fans of Asian cinema can once again celebrate a fantastic release, a true "collector's dream come true." Armour of God has received a complete restoration from the original 35mm negatives, a 4K scan, and the creation of a brand new 4K master. With this level of care, we have come to expect the definitive technical presentation of a film—one that transfers the absolute maximum of visual and audio information from the original analog prints. That means top-tier sharpness with an incredible sense of detail, a tightly resolved and natural film grain structure, robust color reproduction, and the absolute extraction of the original materials' dynamic range and exposure latitude. It's simply a transfer that allows viewers to experience the film in "absolute" quality, surpassing even how it looked on the silver screen during its theatrical premiere. At the same time, we are getting a truly luxurious edition: alongside the technically precise A/V presentation, it offers multiple cuts of the film, tons of special features, and premium collector's packaging that will look exceptionally good on your shelf. An absolute must-have.
