Editor's Notes

Note

Arrow's 2021 Limited Edition is the canonical 4K with both the theatrical cut and director's cut on disc. Solid A-Tier video with strong extras. Best Buy has been moving the standard 4K case for $24 lately while the boxset variant hits $35. The Arrow disc has had QC issues. Collectors have spent weeks pinging Arrow to replace discs that arrived damaged. The Michael Andrews score and the Gary Jules "Mad World" cover sit in a clean DTS-HD 5.1 mix.
