In the first part, Tris (Shailene Woodley) is taunted by Jeanine (Kate Winslet) into attacking her and we get a lot of dialog that shifts in tonal quality and location based on the POV on screen and that room’s acoustics. My favorite demo is actually a two-part scene starting around 1 hour 28 minutes and then concluding again about 10 minutes later.

Plus the audio mixers really utilize Atmos to deliver some extra spaciousness and atmosphere. You’d expect some decent audio from this dystopian thriller, and the disc delivers. The fire billows and swirls and boils all around the room, raging overhead and leaping from speaker to speaker, putting you right in the middle of the inferno and sucking all the air from the viewing space. The flames ignite with a whomp! that seethes through the room and then continues as the fire burns and rages all around, crackling right through your listening position.

I had always thought that Atmos ceiling speakers were truly made to convey overhead rain sounds, but after hearing how well they are employed to handle the roaring fire of this scene, I’m willing to rethink that.

The scene concludes with Terrier and Annie trapped in a bathroom, where the bad guys pour in a flammable substance and then light the room on fire. Throughout all the mayhem the dialog remains clear and understandable. The battle rages around the estate, resulting in shattering glass, splintering wood, and the tinkling of falling brass around the room putting Atmos’ object tracking to wonderful use. Be warned, the scene is pretty brutal, especially near the beginning where Felix takes a rather unfortunate gunshot to the head, so demo it with care. It’s a terrific demo scene with a ton of action and intensity and culminates in an amazing inferno of audio as fire crackles all around the room. The first gun shots come in big and loud from the front right as Felix (Javier Bardem), Terrier (Sean Penn), and Annie (Jasmine Trinca) are attacked by multiple assailants. The film’s marquee demo is found in Chapter 11 at the 57-minute mark and lasts about seven minutes.

This is an interesting movie that has some decent action and a totally shredded Sean Penn, clearly getting jacked for his meeting with El Chapo.

To save you some time trying to find the best scenes to demo, I’m gonna pinpoint each film’s marquee Atmos audio moment-as I did in a previous post where I reviewed the best scenes from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, John Wick, Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1, Gravity, American Sniper, and Jupiter Ascending. I’ve been fortunate enough to watch nearly every Dolby Atmos-encoded Blu-ray disc that has been released so far and while some of the movies are terrific ( Gravity) others are more just things you suffer through ( Jupiter Ascending).
