Sidney Lumet movies available on 4K Blu-ray, ranked by transfer quality.
dir. Sidney Lumet
S-Tier StudioCanal 4K. Lumet's 1974 Agatha Christie all-star mystery, with Kino Lorber handling the US release. The 4K scores a 4.5 overall, and people were excited about more Lumet on the format. The US version was out of print and going for inflated prices before the new release.
StudioCanal · 4K + Blu-ray
Sold out during the Criterion 24-hour flash sale in March 2026. Sidney Lumet on 4K, and one of the sharper buys in the catalog at any price.
Criterion Collection · 4K + Blu-ray
A-Tier Kino Lorber 4K with a perfect 5.0 specs score. Every scene is a close-up of a sweating face in a jury room, and the 4K grain and detail make you feel the claustrophobia. The Kino disc also includes In the Heat of the Night as a bonus feature, which the Criterion edition doesn't have.
Kino Lorber · 4K + Blu-ray
Pacino disappearing into the role is the thing everyone mentions after watching. People who saw the 35mm print say the 4K captures that same quality. The C-Tier rating from Kino stings for a film this good. Collectors recommend pairing it with Prince of the City, same director, similar territory, arguably even better.
