It is unclear to me if the HD files already shared in this thread are from blurary or webrips, but I know they initially started as webrips. So here's the link, all well-seeded at this time:

https://rarbg.to/torrents.php?imdb=tt7840854

Files range from 7.4gb to 1.2gb.

Can anyone tell me if, in general, a bluray rip can offer additional quality over webrips?

The film is shot with little blur in the lens (a fast shutter I believe) - a bit like the beach scene from Saving Private Ryan. Even when the camera whip-pans the camera doesn't blur - gives it quite a documentary war-zone feel. It means the detail is preserved in each frame, is not smeared and you need a very high bitrate to avoid mpeg blocking artifacts.

I also uploaded the complete BD image if you are interested in the highest quality we're likely to ever see of the film.
