Unveiling Hidden Gems: Top 5 Atmos Movies Not On Other Lists 

Great commentary from a fan that's passionate about film as the technical appreciation. You remind us that movies are not produced for demo reels, they exist to enhance the drama and storytelling. Great work!

Excellent video! Whenever I listen to one of Dolby's own Atmos demo discs I always have the same thought: Movies *never* sound this good! By way of extreme simplification, the demo discs tend towards subtlety, the movies tend towards cacophonous volume. That's a huge generalisation on my part, of course, but fundamentally: You absolutely don't need high volume for a great sound mix.

Watched Roma last weekend on Netflix partly on your recommendation. The 4K and Atmos were superb. Some great placement of dialogue when characters are off camera and water whooshes all around you at start and near the end. Sounded great even on my soundbar and Atmos up firing surrounds. Also bought Ambulance on Regular Blu-ray as it carries an Atmos track.

Wonderful list. Ambulance and Rogue Nation are spot on picks. Really enjoy your content and sharing your enjoyment of Atmos content with family and friends. I'm impressed with your wife's knowledge of what to listen for and that she picks out the audio differences.

Really appreciate this list - I’m a true Atmos lover and have quite the set up myself and am always looking for films that make good use of Atmos. Sadly not enough films do it and even if they have an Atmos mix, it doesn’t mean it’s a a good one. I know all the “typical films” so it was nice to see a list of others that I had no idea would would have such a great Atmos mix. I’m excited to check some of these out. I do have Doctor Sleep and can agree it’s a great Atmos mix. You got a new sub from me just from seeing this one vid. Well done!

Fright Night (1985) 4K Blu-ray has unreal Atmos for an 80s movie. Best scene is when Jerry Dandrige lands on Charlie's roof with a thunderous slam and then the footsteps panning from height channel to height channel. It sounds so real it's like someone is actually walking on your roof.

Thanks for asum content as usual 🙂. So happy everytime new videos comes out and that have been more now for some week 🙏🙂. Keep up the good work ,u rock . Greetings from Sweden

I just got my new "Ferrari" Blu-Ray today for my rarely used, old Blu-Ray player. How do I get the volume on for the movie? The previews have volume but not the movie. Thanks

The opera track is called "Nessun Dorma", many millennials will probably also remember it as an upbeat techno track called "Vincero" released by Swedish singer Fredrik Kempe in 2002.

Here's another one for you - Christine. The rain was amazing. The feel. I can't explain it unless you've seen it.

Roma has an amazing atmos track, i think is one of the most immersive if not the best atmos track i have heard, movie might not be the best one, but the audio is incredible. I remember one scene when i think the girl is going upstairs and you can hear her going up to the right, you can hear the footsteps from center to right top

Another underrated movie is 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi from middle to end. Bombs, missiles, RPG's, bullets flying by omgggg. One scene where an RPG flies by your ear and impacts HARD. This is my top 5 for bass and effects. I definitely will be picking Wrath of Man this week.

The sound that really stood out to me in Roma was the hospital scene. It really made me feel like I was in the chaos and definitely upped the emotional impact of not only what happened in that scene but also the hardship of Cleo’s life and even the political turmoil in the city. I also love-love the Nessun Dorma scene in MI5. The opera is such a unique backdrop for a suspenseful scene in an action movie and makes for a very unorthodox listening experience. And the way the climax in the music lines up with the action really sends it over the top. Good picks!

Great video! What’s your setup? Processor, amp and speakers?

This is such a great way to share scenes! If I could make one suggestion? List the time code of the scene you're watching. Thanks for the content!!

Side question: Do I need to revisit The Shining in order to watch Doctor Sleep? I ask because the last time I watched The Shining was wayyy back when I was kid and I barely remember it.

Thank you the demo and the info for the Dolby Atmos films 🎥 👍🏼👊🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

If I may suggest something it would be to keep the mic lower at table height below the screen and add at least 10dB treble to the EQ of the mic. It is too much puff sounds into the mic and the lack of treble are very different from all others and makes the sound muffled and harder to hear. Great suggestions for movies though.

Last Night in Soho also has demo worthy sound. A great list you came up with.

Is wrath of man dolby atmos on the disk as the streaming sites have it in 5.1. cheers

Nice work

More like this please

IMO, The Incredible Hulk on 4K is the best Demo for Clarity, Depth and Power. I think it's even better than Ambulance, Ready Player One and Mission Impossible

Completely agree on Roma.

Just rewatched Doctor Sleep for the third or fourth time last night, and yes, the sound is great, especially that ominous bass. It's actually one of my favorite horror movies. If you watch the Director's Cut version, the title makes a lot more sense. Although it has Atmos, there is unfortunately no 4K version of the director's cut on disc, just Blu-ray - still looks great, though.

watched Roma last night. DAMN. sorry but even top gun maverick and blade runner 2049 had nothing on that. uses surrounds every single frame it can.

Great video!!! Subbed!!!!

Really would of helped if the video was chopped up into chapters, still have no idea what no 5 was

Roma Blu Ray or Netflix 4K you refer to?

Knowing has a really good Atmos track.

I'm perfectly happy with Dolby Atmos 3.1.2.

Dude, Doctor Sleep is not a poor name choice by the film producers, that’s literally the name of the 2013 book by Stephen King lol but yeah, it’s a great movie with a great Atmos track.
