Simon Pegg movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Christopher McQuarrie
S-Tier Paramount 4K. The best MI film by most accounts. The 6-movie 4K set has been available for around USD per film, but a lot of people are holding out for the eventual 1-8 complete box. The individual steelbook re-releases in the matching silver and grey art came out in July, and the worry is that MI7 and MI8 won't match.

dir. Brad Bird
S-Tier Paramount 4K. Brad Bird's Mission Impossible entry with the Burj Khalifa sequence. The steelbook dropped to $14.89 USD on sale. People wish the IMAX aspect ratio expanded on the disc. Not a lot of dedicated discussion for this specific entry, though the MI franchise as a whole is well-collected.
A-Tier Paramount 4K. McQuarrie's MI7, and Paramount re-released it with "Part One" removed from the title after the planned two-parter structure changed. The US steelbook design didn't match the silver and grey style of entries 1-6, which bothered collectors going for a matching set. The UK Zavvi steelbook was better-looking but pricey at around CAD imported.
A-Tier Paramount 4K. McQuarrie's first MI entry. The Rogue Nation steelbook has been sitting at $5-6 USD for a while, which tells you where it sits in the franchise pecking order. Part of the matching steelbook set that collectors are building.
A-Tier Paramount 4K. The Final Reckoning wraps up the two-part story that started with Dead Reckoning. The steelbook art was called bland and lacking color, and a Polish exclusive briefly appeared before getting swapped for the US version. Mixed reception on the film itself, with people saying 45 minutes of great action was buried in two hours of exposition.
dir. Edgar Wright
The new 4K steelbook got people hoping the entire Cornetto trilogy would follow. The 4K transfer itself is divisive, with at least one commenter calling the Shaun/Hot Fuzz/World's End set maybe the worst 4K discs they own. Gruv's 3-for-$30 and Amazon deals keep the price reasonable. The Cornetto trilogy 4K set has been as low as $27 USD on Amazon, making it the better value over individual steelbooks.
Universal Pictures · 4K + Blu-ray
Five friends who reunite in an attempt to top their epic pub crawl from 20 years earlier unwittingly become humankind's only hope for survival.
D-Tier Universal 4K. The D-Tier rating has people confused because Edgar Wright's films are so visually precise. Multiple collectors have said the 4K actually looks worse than the Blu-ray, and the hope is Universal gives it the Shaun of the Dead treatment for the 20th anniversary in 2027.
