Fargo(1996)

7.8/10

dir. Joel Coen

S-Tier

S-Tier Shout Factory 4K. The Coens' Midwest crime film. Shout Factory's transfer has been praised.

Reservoir Dogs(1992)

8.1/10

dir. Quentin Tarantino

S-Tier

The transfer confused people because the fine grain from Kodak 50D stock looks almost like digital noise reduction to untrained eyes. It is not. Same stock as Titanic, and both looked suspiciously clean in 4K. Once people understood the film stock, the consensus shifted to calling it the best Tarantino 4K, with Pulp Fiction second. The Manta Lab steelbook artwork reveal got massive engagement. StudioCanal's disc itself is S-Tier.

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

King of New York(1990)

6.8/10

dir. Abel Ferrara

S-Tier

S-Tier Arrow Video 4K. Abel Ferrara's crime film with Walken. Lionsgate put out a re-release with a steelbook that collectors found ugly, and most people are happy sticking with their Arrow or StudioCanal versions. The 4-hour documentary included with the Arrow release is almost as good as the film itself.

Escape from L.A.(1996)

5.9/10

dir. John Carpenter

A-Tier

Paramount 30th anniversary 4K steelbook is up for preorder. People who already own the 4K are split on the art, comparing it unfavorably to the Escape from New York steelbook. Fresh buyers are more enthusiastic.
