Nope(2022)

dir. Jordan Peele

S-Tier Universal 4K. Jordan Peele's alien horror, shot on a mix of 65mm and IMAX 65mm film. The same cinematographer and format combo used on Dunkirk, Tenet, and Oppenheimer. The 4K disc scores a 4.5, and the setting really benefits from the format. The giant 4K Ultra HD logo on the case cover was widely mocked.
