Viewing Babylon in Ultra HD didn’t make for an overtly commanding viewing experience, however, I found it to be a complimentary improvement over the 1080p Blu-ray presentation. The steel spike needle wasn't even on the edge of the record, it was just hovering above it off to the right. The 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release of ‘Babylon’ includes a few worthwhile extras which can all be found on the included Blu-ray Bonus Disc. Included on the release are a handful of ‘Deleted and Extended Scenes’ from the film (running approximately 9 minutes in length altogether) along with a few Behind the Scenes Featurettes that explore bringing the film to life and featuring interviews/comments with the cast and crew, plus behind the scenes footage and more.

Margot Robbie plays Nellie LaRoy, a confident, overly ambitious, self-proclaimed star who attends the party that begins the film thanks to the help of Manny Torres, a Mexican immigrant played by Diego Calva whose path intertwines with Nellie’s throughout the film. Robbie is superb and continues to just steal scenes in whatever movie she’s in, and here she even gets to crank it up an extra notch or two. Calva, who is a fresher face on the Hollywood scene also just absolutely nails all he’s given in this role. He’s someone who will benefit greatly from his work here.

Perhaps they didn't want any sound coming from the machine so they could over-lay what they wanted, if so, a blank recording of nothing on it would have been the answer.
