Pulled from a pure 4K source, Honor Among Thieves shows dazzling detail at times. A few spots appear slightly edgy, lacking the firmness seen elsewhere. That's generally minor. The rest looks precise, clear, and pristine, even with the slightest noise visible in spots. That's minor too.

The color palette stretches wide, from striking earth tones, chilly dungeons, and super heated flames. Flesh tones impress. A touch of generic orange/teal aside, Honor Among Thieves delights in saturation and density.

Paramount's Dolby Vision pass adds a great spark, especially when it comes to flames, magic lightning, and other such effects. While not the most potent disc in contrast terms, there's still pop around the frame. Black levels handle their end of the process, thickening the shadows to true black and nearly always staying there.

Audio

While volume sounds pinched - but only on the higher end - Honor Among Thieves' Atmos mix doesn't spare the surrounds or heights. In towns, the activity spreads to every speaker, creating a generous ambiance. Same goes for winds brushing leaves or other similar touches. Overheads engage regularly, tracking the action whether that's arrows, fireballs, or monsters.

Adjusting the volume a touch might give Honor Among Thieves more pop, that will balloon the already thick, hearty low-end. It's mighty, and Honor Among Thieves doesn't appreciate subtlety. Every chance, whether it's from an explosion, monster roar, or destruction, bass is always a part of this mix.
