Annihilation purchased from Best Buy whilst in the US last week.

I will be watching this evening.

Will add thoughts and pics later.

Really looking forward to this as looked great on Netflix so should look awesome on UHD Blu Ray.

It does look great in Dolby Vision
 
A few pics as promised.

Looks great, my iPad really cannot do it justice.

Film is as good as I remember too.

What's the audio like compared to Netflix?
 
Was underwhelmed by how this film looked. There are definitely a handful of stunning moments, but I found it pretty bland looking.

Found the whole film a little bland to be honest. Huge shame because I adore Garland's work for the most part. I just thought this was dull, really dull...
 
Finally.

Glad I waited and didn’t pay import prices. Really liked this movie. Definite preorder from me

I really enjoyed this. It really needs HDR / DV to give it justice though, the clipping on the SDR version is quite something. If you look at the last sequences, clouds outside and then detail of bright objects in the latter dark scene are completely blown out on Netflix in SDR (and apparently on the Blu-ray). Loads of detail comes back in HDR/DV.
 
Very disappointing UHD for me on watching tonight. Soft and lacking contrast in DV to my eyes.
