A never-before-seen and newly restored cut of Francis Ford Coppola's spectacular cinematic masterpiece in a way which the director believes "looks better than it has ever looked and sounds better than it has ever sounded".
Apocalypse Now was nominated for 8 Academy Awards® (including Best Picture) and won 2 Academy Award® for Best Cinematography and Best Sound, 2 BAFTAs for Best Direction and Best Supporting Actor and the Palme d'Or in Cannes. Starring Academy Award® winner Marlon Brando (1972, Best Actor, The Godfather), Academy Award® winner Robert Duvall (1983, Best Actor, Tender Mercies), Golden Globe® winner Martin Sheen (2001, Best Actor - TV Series, "The West Wing"), Academy Award® nominee Dennis Hopper (1986, Best Supporting Actor, Hoosiers), Academy Award® nominee Laurence Fishburne (1993, Best Actor, What's Love Got to Do with It), and Academy Award® nominee Harrison Ford (1985, Best Actor, Witness), the film follows Army Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), a troubled man sent on a dangerous and mesmerizing odyssey into Cambodia to assassinate a renegade American colonel named Kurtz (Marlon Brando), who has succumbed to the horrors of war and barricaded himself in a remote outpost.
The best visual and sound technologies have been used to present Coppola's true vision of the film: one that delivers deep, visceral visual and auditory impact. "The audience will be able to see, hear and feel this film how I always hoped it could be-from the first 'bang' to the final whimper" said the film-maker. All three versions of this film are available on this release including Apocalypse Now: The Final Cut, Apocalypse Now: Theatrical Cut, and Apocalypse Now Redux Extended Cut.
Restored from the original negative for the first time ever, Apocalypse Now Final Cut is Coppola's most complete version of his multi-awarded classic. This is the first time the original negative has ever been scanned and over 11 months and 2,700 hours were spent on cleaning and restoring the film's 300,173 frames. Brought to life through ultra-vivid picture quality with Dolby Vision®, delivering spectacular colours never before seen on a screen, with highlights that are up to 40 times brighter, and blacks that are 10 times darker. It has also been mixed in Dolby Atmos® to offer a truly immersive sound experience and it has been enhanced Meyer Sound Laboratories' newly developed Sensual Sound™, a technology engineered to output audio below the limits of human hearing.

Apocalypse Now 4K
I was really impressed by the vivid colours of the 4K, more so than the actual high definition quality although that's down to my unfamiliarity with the format up to this point. Although I thought the film was great, I believe it was a mistake to only include Final Cut and wish they'd restored the theatrical version as well or instead, as the pacing and runtime wasn't perfect.

A must-buy for any film-enthusiast
This 4k restoration of Coppola's 1979 masterpiece is truly stunning. A few shots, like the opening, have some very heavy film-grain, but those shots are few and far between. Film-grain is mostly very fine, and detail is razor-sharp thanks to a 4k restoration done right. Colors also look stunning thanks to dolby vision, and the audio, which is Dolby Atmos this time around, is pretty much perfect. This is without a doubt the best the film has ever looked and sounded, and a no-brainer for any film-enthusiast. No problems on Zavvi's part, the product was delivered on time and all. 5 out of 5 stars across the board.

Apocalypse now Final Cut 4K
This is the crispiest looking version of the film I’ve seen so far. Some bits are grainy, but what do you expect from a film this old? However it looks amazing and details pop out on the screen, and you can almost smell the sweat and napalm. This is a no brainer purchase for any collector. It’s packed with extras I haven’t even started on yet that’ll keep you busy for hours. The Final Cut is the version Copolla intended screening in theaters, but was trimmed down to the uncomprehending Theatrical version. It’s over 3 hours long clocking 183 minutes.
