I think the first one is a great film and it's one I upgraded to 4K Ultra HD. The opening sequence is a showcase for the format, perfect reference material. The visuals are stunning and there is a moment where a helicopter appears from behind you and the right, flies over the right side of the room and over the TV screen. It's incredible.
The second film is not the same quality as, without Emily Blunt's Kate as the moral compass, it lacks the same sociopolitical commentary. It's still a very good film, though not the minor masterpiece that Denis Villeneuve directed.
