The Big Lebowski

The Big Lebowski(1998)

7.8/10

dir. Joel Coen

S-Tier

Universal S-Tier 4K. The Dude abides in reference quality. One of those discs that gets bought on impulse every time someone posts it, and the comments are always just quotes from the film.

Universal Pictures · 20th Anniversary Edition
Happiness

Happiness(1998)

7.4/10

dir. Todd Solondz

S-Tier

S-Tier Criterion 4K. Todd Solondz. Not an easy watch. Criterion's disc.

Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray
Scent of a Woman

Scent of a Woman(1992)

7.8/10

dir. Martin Brest

S-Tier

Shout Factory's S-Tier 4K. Thin collector discussion but Pacino's performance is the reason this disc exists. One of those films that gets brought up in "underrated 4K" threads without anyone elaborating much beyond recommending it.

Nobody's Fool

Nobody's Fool(1994)

7.3/10

dir. Robert Benton

A-Tier

A rascally nearing-retirement man juggles a workers' compensation suit while secretly working for his nemesis and flirting with his nemesis' young wife. As his estranged son returns, he faces new family responsibilities, while a banker plots to evict him from his home.
Twister

Twister(1996)

6.6/10

dir. Jan de Bont

A-Tier

An unprecedented series of violent tornadoes is sweeping across Oklahoma. Tornado chasers, headed by Dr. Jo Harding, attempt to release a groundbreaking device that will allow them to track them and create a more advanced warning system. They are joined by Jo's soon to be ex-husband Bill, a former tornado chaser himself, and his girlfriend Melissa.
Boogie Nights

Boogie Nights(1997)

7.6/10

dir. Paul Thomas Anderson

A-Tier

Warner put Boogie Nights on 4K in December 2025. The transfer is a deliberate film-look pass mastered from a print to preserve the theatrical feel, so don't expect a razor-sharp digital scan. The real catch is that the disc only carries the 5.1 mix, while the digital copy is the only place you'll get Dolby Atmos.

Warner Bros. · 4K + Blu-ray
Hard Eight

Hard Eight(1997)

7.1/10

dir. Paul Thomas Anderson

Announced

A stranger mentors a young Reno gambler who weds a hooker and befriends a vulgar casino regular.
