Repo Man(1984)

6.7/10

dir. Alex Cox

A-Tier

Criterion 4K. The conversation about what the film is really about produced one of the best single-sentence readings of any film on the internet. One of those discs where some buyers reported defective copies, but the transfer itself is clean once you get a good pressing. The film stock is fine-grained enough that it looks pristine in 4K.
