The single sequence shot using IMAX 65mm cameras has been cropped nicely to 2.35:1, and is nearly grainless in its appearance. It really only comes out in force during night-time exposures, and never becomes overwhelming. Their costumes are fantastic, and hold up well under the scrutiny of home video.īeing shot almost entirely on 35mm film negative, The Force Awakens has a healthy layer of grain that remains rather tame through the majority of the feature. The filmmakers really pushed for an emphasis on physical sets and props, and while main of the larger scale effect sequences are primarily digital, so many of the characters are actual costumes and actors working with real sets, unlike the previous two Star Wars films. The sets really come to life, and close ups are amazingly crisp and detailed. The opening scenes on Jakku are warmly colored against the backdrop of nighttime, with excellent contrast and detail. Starting with the opening crawl, the text is sharp, crisp, and bright. That being said, The Force Awakens is stunning in 1080p. As much as it pains me to report, the single IMAX sequence was not visually enhanced for home video presentation. This Blu-ray, released by Disney, is presented in 1080p with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio from start to finish. The film, other than one sequence in 1.44:1 IMAX film aspect ratio and 1.90:1 IMAX Digital aspect ratio, was projected using a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. The film was available on 35mm film, IMAX DMR 15/70mm film, IMAX Digital 3D, and Digital 2D and 3D. The Force Awakens was shot entirely on film, and was mastered using a digital intermediate at 2K resolution. One sequence in the film, the “Escape from Jakku” sequence, was filmed using IMAX 15-perf/65mm cameras. Star Wars: The Force Awakens was primarily shot on 35mm film using Panavision Millenium XL cameras and a combination of Panavision C and E series lenses, as well as a set on PVintage lenses. The “Light Side” review offers a more positive outlook on the movie, and the “Dark Side” review offers a dissenting, less favorable opinion.
