Black Hawk Down

Black Hawk Down(2001)

7.4/10

dir. Ridley Scott

S-Tier

S-Tier Sony 4K. Ridley Scott's war film. Someone bought it and the case was empty, which is a recurring Amazon complaint across many titles.

Kingdom of Heaven

Kingdom of Heaven(2005)

7.3/10

dir. Ridley Scott

S-Tier

Disney finally cracked the 20th Century back catalog with this one, the first proper 4K of Ridley Scott's 2005 Crusades epic. The Steelbook ships both the Theatrical and Director's Cut on the same disc, with the Director's Cut being the version that turned the film's reputation around. Reference-grade transfer that honors the way Scott shot it. Natural grain, no AI sharpening. Walmart $39.99 USD, Amazon restock waves clearing. Collectors are already comparing the OOP risk to the Lawrence of Arabia steelbook.

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End(2007)

7.3/10

dir. Gore Verbinski

A-Tier

A-Tier Disney 4K. Third Pirates film. Disney's 4K treatment of the Pirates franchise has been a sore spot, with the first film's transfer widely considered one of the worst 4Ks ever made.

DeepDiscount cancellation emails went out this week and the last Gruv restock was February 11. WB does fewer reprints than Sony or Paramount, and Moviesunlimited is showing an April 13 availability date. Check Zavvi if you're in the UK.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl(2003)

7.8/10

dir. Gore Verbinski

D-Tier

Disney's 4K transfer stripped the grain and crushed the color. Pro reviews put it at D-Tier, and the original Blu-ray from 2007 genuinely looks better. The format's worst-case scenario for a film that deserved a proper rescan.
