The colors of the HDR version are no "Blown Away" sort of thing. Neither is the UHD in terms of colors a major upgrade of the Blu-ray. Overall the movie looks like a movie from the 80's and that is a good thing. HDR gives a little boost to some of highlights. Black levels are pretty nice too. People with large screen certainly will appreciate the 4K resolution and HDR.
It's a solid release. No more, no less

I might be mistaken but the version of Die Hard currently screening on Film4HD in the UK looks like it’s the 4K remaster! Looks different from the BD!

It's not the Netflix unfortunately. It's the same master Film4 have been running for years. It's very similar to the BD master, if anything it might be older.

Both of these were originally mixed to the right channel but were moved to the centre channel for the DVD remix. All LD mixes should have the original sound placement, varying only in source (35mm Lt-Rt or 70mm 6-Track). What about the 2.0 mix on the 1999 Non-Anamorphic DVD?

The 2.0 surround track on the non-anamorphic DVD is also a remix, most likely a fold-down of the 5.1 remix.

TCM in France is currently showing the same remaster as this Netflix: darker, warmer, more colorfull. So I guess TV channels have this one now.

I got the non-anamorphic DVD for one buck, I really love the color timing.
Since the movie transfered to 16/9, it has never looked like it was before. A compare with the 4K could be cool.

I've never gotten the original 1-3 DVDs but they should all be straight ports of the THX LD remasters. With the SE DVDs 1 and 2 were slightly massaged and manipulated in their color and overall appearance. Ironically the shots of the 4K DH1 most closely resemble the original widescreen non-THX LD.
