I've been toggling on/off on the series X lately testing various games and HDR on brings a massive change to the depth and impact of the image. HDR off and every scene where there is lighting involved looks flat, dull. HDR on makes everything look more life-like and realistic. It's a great improvement.
However I feel that HDR on in movies and tv just seems to blast out often unnaturally bright headlights and that's it... I don't feel lighting in movies or shows looks flat or dull without HDR like it does in games... It's hard to explain I think its because movies are already 'real' and need less dynamic range increase for a convincing picture than something that is being rendered?
