It’s war in the West Indies, and the shores of New Providence Island have never been bloodier. While Eleanor Guthrie (HANNAH NEW) and Woodes Rogers (LUKE ROBERTS) hold Nassau; Captain Flint (TOBY STEPHENS) sails to strike the final blow… and from the interior, an insurgency builds, fueled by the legend of Long John Silver (LUKE ARNOLD). But the closer civilization comes to defeat, the more desperately, and destructively, it will fight back. |

VIDEO – 4.5/5 |
Black Sails: The Complete Fourth Season docks onto Blu-ray presented in its originally televised 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. The series offers sharp detail with bright, natural colors though tend to go more on the darker scale in keeping with the plot lines and corrupt characters. The transfer appears clear, free of major signs of aliasing and artifacts. (Copied from Black Sails: Season Two Blu-ray Review) |
AUDIO – 5.0/5 |
Give the show, and the studio, credit. Each episode is accompanied with a fantastic and strong Dolby TrueHD 7.1 track. With a wide range from ship-to-ship fights to dialogue-centric sequences which show off the lower end of the scale. It’s one of the more dynamic and depth-filled tracks I’ve come across especially for a television series. (Copied from Black Sails: Season Two Blu-ray Review) |
OVERALL – 3.75/5 |
Overall, Black Sails: The Complete Fourth Season is a solid and fine finale for the series that, as in previous seasons, is notable for the performances of Toby Stephens and Hannah New with special acknowledgment to Ray Stevenson as Blackbeard, whose presence is always welcomed. The Blu-ray released by Anchor Bay includes excellent video and audio transfers and an average selection of special features. |
