Note
S-Tier Criterion 4K. The Hughes Brothers' film about growing up in Watts. Criterion's announcement was part of a wave of Black cinema releases alongside Deep Cover and the Melvin Van Peebles set. The cover art was praised as really good. Vantiva manufacturing QC issues have been affecting Criterion discs, with scratched new discs being reported across multiple titles.
