Brad Pitt movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Damien Chazelle
S-Tier Paramount 4K. Shot on 35mm, native 4K with Dolby Vision on a BD-100 disc. Divisive film that plays better on a second watch when you know what you're getting into.
Paramount Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Joseph Kosinski
Racing legend Sonny Hayes is coaxed out of retirement to lead a struggling Formula 1 team—and mentor a young hotshot driver—while chasing one more chance at glory.
Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. David Ayer
S-Tier Sony 4K. Brad Pitt in a Sherman tank. The mud and rain in HDR look real.
Sony Pictures · Steelbook
dir. Steven Soderbergh
S-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. Soderbergh's heist film, and the HDR is really good. Soderbergh is meticulous with digital tools but lets his older films look like film on disc, which collectors appreciate. The trilogy 4K set makes a good gift.
dir. Quentin Tarantino
S-Tier Sony 4K. Tarantino's Hollywood love letter with Pitt and DiCaprio. The Netflix 4K stream vs. Blu-ray comparison went viral, showing how much streaming compresses the image. The Best Buy exclusive steelbook is a collector's item. Someone made custom poster art and inserts that look professional. Tarantino fans are essentially confirmed to never get a Criterion release of any of his films.
Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. Terry Gilliam
In the year 2035, convict James Cole reluctantly volunteers to be sent back in time to discover the origin of a deadly virus that wiped out nearly all of the earth's population and forced the survivors into underground communities. But when Cole is mistakenly sent to 1990 instead of 1996, he's arrested and locked up in a mental hospital. There he meets psychiatrist Dr. Kathryn Railly and the son of a famous virus expert who may hold the key to the Army of the 12 Monkeys; thought to be responsible for unleashing the killer disease.
Arrow Video · 4K + Blu-ray
dir. James Gray
A-Tier 4K. Pitt's quiet performance and dense space photography that deserved more attention than the film got on release. The Moon sequences in HDR have depth the theatrical release didn't show.
A-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Tarantino's WWII film with Christoph Waltz's Oscar-winning turn. Arrow's limited edition with the Complete Basterds packaging is the collector's version. It's not a new scan, but at $17-18 USD on sale nobody seems to care. Zavvi had a full box set with extra goodies for those who wanted to go all in.
A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. The third Ocean's, and someone flagged the transfer for heavy DNR and overblown HDR highlights.
A-Tier Warner Bros. 4K. The least popular Ocean's film with no relevant collector discussion about the transfer.
dir. David Fincher
The 4K theatrical rerelease renewed attention right before the disc hit. The Zavvi "What's In The Box?" edition at $98 USD was roasted immediately, with one comment offering to put their DVD in a cardboard box with Walmart air fresheners instead. The standard 4K packaging also took heat for the case design, prompting custom case inserts. None of that matters because the A-Tier transfer on this film is exceptional. The dark interiors and rain-soaked exteriors test any display setup. Fincher's 30th anniversary restoration is the definitive home version.
Warner Bros. · 4K Ultra HD
dir. Guy Ritchie
Sony 4K from 2021 with a native 4K transfer and HDR10. Ritchie's second film and Statham's breakout role as Turkish. Reviewers praised the grain structure and the expanded UK English audio track that wasn't on the original Blu-ray.
dir. David Leitch
Unlucky assassin Ladybug is determined to do his job peacefully after one too many gigs gone off the rails. Fate, however, may have other plans, as Ladybug's latest mission puts him on a collision course with lethal adversaries from around the globe—all with connected, yet conflicting, objectives—on the world's fastest train.
Sony steelbook preorder is still generating conversation weeks after the announcement. Early transfer consensus is positive, and the existing disc was already solid. Collectors who own it are deciding whether the new packaging justifies a double dip.
dir. Bennett Miller
The story of Oakland Athletics general manager Billy Beane's successful attempt to put together a baseball team on a budget, by employing computer-generated analysis to draft his players.
