Brad Pitt · 2010s

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.

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.

Sony's 4K arrives April 28 for the 15th anniversary, but the announcement raised eyebrows because there's no HDR on the disc. For a dialogue-driven film with Wally Pfister's naturalistic cinematography, that might not matter as much as it sounds.
