When the order to abort the repair mission comes from Harris back in Houston, itвЂ™s mixed full and loud up to the ceiling speakers, moving around through all four of the channels.

The music continually does a great job of matching the onscreen tension, swirling and spinning to mimic StoneвЂ™s on-screen disorientation. Where most times these speakers almost seem to be used as one channel to create space, or ambience, or just echo the music, here they are frequently used independently to bounce, swirl and shift the audio environment around the space of ceiling. More than any film IвЂ™ve watched so far, Gravity does the best job of taking advantage of the four discreet overhead speakers. The scene ends with the crackling or roaring fire as it burns in the new rubble as fire is catching. Several explosions and debris blasts fill the room, as does the swirling audio from the attacking jets. This relative calm is broken by air raid klaxons and the chatter of anti-aircraft machine gun fire. Creating the larger open space is the sounds of atmospheric and nature sounds swirling through the overhead speakers. This sets up the filmвЂ™s first big action sequence at 48 minutes as Katniss and her team walk around outside. At 43 minutes, Katniss flies into District 8 and the jet hovers, stirring up lots of ground debris and then flies off overhead to disappear off in the sonic distance. The mix does a great job of relaying the claustrophobia and closeness of the acoustic rooms and spaces, providing lots of reverberation and background mechanical, generator, and air circulation sounds that really help to place you inside District 13 with Katniss. Sonically, much of this film is dialog driven and takes place inside the cramped, indoor, underground concrete, missile silo-esque bunker of District 13. This scene is punctuated by blasts of silenced pistol fire as Wick moves through the club fighting and taking out bad guys and finishes with two loud blasts from WickвЂ™s unsilenced back-up weapon. Minutes later at another private club, the music plays an important role in letting you know which level or area of the club youвЂ™re in and the overhead speakers do a great job of filling in the room space and setting the difference moods as characters move through the differences spaces. At 41 minutes in Wick visits a club and there is a ton of ambient club music and conversations and dinner plates and glasses clinking. This is a perfect role for Keanu Reeves because it requires very little talking on his part. And in a scene that nicely displays the use of sound, while our ninja turtle heroes are having one of those impossibly long falling moments that no mortal being could possibly survive, Raphael maintains a running, вЂњI love you guys!вЂќ dialog with all this mayhem and music going on, when the music abruptly stops and there is this sudden moment of just silence with bits of building debris falling around the room. Near the end of the film during the climactic final battle, a tower is collapsing with bits of metal and debris crashing down all around and overhead. To save you some time trying to find the best scenes to demo, IвЂ™m gonna pinpoint each filmвЂ™s marquee Atmos audio moment! (Some spoilers aheadвЂ¦)

While some of the movies are terrific (Gravity) others are more just things you suffer through (Jupiter Ascending). IвЂ™ve been fortunate enough to watch nearly every Dolby Atmos encoded Blu-ray disc that has been released so far.
