Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb(1964)

8.1/10

dir. Stanley Kubrick

S-Tier

Warner put this on 4K as part of the Kubrick catalog, and it's also in the Columbia Classics set. The B&W HDR gives the war room scenes deeper blacks, though the gains show up more in motion than in frame grabs. Columbia Classics is the better value if you don't already own the box.

Sony Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray

7.0/10

dir. Blake Edwards
