Brokeback Mountain(2005)

7.8/10

dir. Ang Lee

S-Tier

S-Tier Kino Lorber 4K. Ang Lee's film. Kino did a good job with this one.

Jarhead(2005)

6.7/10

dir. Sam Mendes

A-Tier

A-Tier Universal 4K. Sam Mendes' Gulf War film with Jake Gyllenhaal, and Roger Deakins shot it, so the HDR upgrade actually matters here. The 20th anniversary steelbook art is lazy. GRUV has also had trouble getting copies to people on time.

Universal Pictures · 20th Anniversary Edition

Donnie Darko(2001)

8.0/10

dir. Richard Kelly

A-Tier

Arrow's 2021 Limited Edition is the canonical 4K with both the theatrical cut and director's cut on disc. Solid A-Tier video with strong extras. Best Buy has been moving the standard 4K case for $24 lately while the boxset variant hits $35. The Arrow disc has had QC issues. Collectors have spent weeks pinging Arrow to replace discs that arrived damaged. The Michael Andrews score and the Gary Jules "Mad World" cover sit in a clean DTS-HD 5.1 mix.

Arrow Video · Limited Edition

Zodiac(2007)

7.5/10

dir. David Fincher

A-Tier

Paramount A-Tier 4K. Fincher fans waited years for this and the October 2024 release delivered. The digital sheen translates to HDR in ways that catch you off guard for a 2007 film shot on early Viper cameras.
