Caveat: mild DNR throughout the transfer, non-IMAX scenes appear soft due to being scanned from an interpositive rather than the original camera negative.
while the encoding is mostly fine, there are some pretty bad compression issues, especially in brighter areas of the image. In the other thread, users have done comparisons between the 4K Blu-ray and the Streaming version, and actually found that the Streaming release has less macroblocking in these specific sections. Overall video quality is mostly solid, with not much of a detail increase from previous BDs. HDR looks great. The Atmos track this film comes with is also good, but it's not a huge upgrade compared to the 5.1 mix from past release
