Anna is presented in 4K UHD courtesy of Lionsgate Films with a 2160p transfer in 2.39:1. This is a solid looking 4K presentation, but it may not reach the top tier of detail and color saturation that some videophiles may be expecting, especially considering a director of Besson's general flashiness. That said, there are definitely upticks in fine detail levels throughout the presentation, albeit often on fairly mundane items, like the thick tufted fabric of the coat Olga frequently wears. Dolby Vision adds some interesting highlights, especially when Besson and cinematographer Thierry Arbogast play with lighting and/or grading, as in a brief, probably too "on the nose", moment with Anna bathed in red light as she arrives in Paris. Some of the outdoor material does gain some depth of field, and clarity is generally excellent throughout the presentation. The more naturally lit moments pop with considerable authority, with a natural looking palette and generally commendable detail levels.

Mary Lambert's adaptation of Stephen King's Pet Sematary is a creepy tale about bringing back the dead thanks to an ancient Indian burial ground. In book form, King's darkly frightening fairytale remains scarily effective, but the film adaptation is starting to lose some of its steam outside of nostalgia and is best enjoyed for its study of family grief, as well as for the performances. To celebrate its 30th Anniversary on Ultra HD, Paramount Studios reanimated the cult horror favorite with a lovely Dolby Vision HDR presentation that makes its HD SDR counterpart deathly pale by comparison, accompanied by the same DTS-HD MA 5.1 soundtrack as the Blu-ray. The same set of supplements are joined by a trio of new bonuses, making the overall UHD package recommended for fans wanting an excellent upgrade.

Taking a chapter from one of the darkest periods of South African history, Neill Blomkamp's District 9 is an insightfully weighty and masterfully told tale that remains just as entertaining a decade later. In fact, the inventively brilliant sci-fi actioner continues to surprise and feels all the more relevant and poignant today with its allegorical plot on systemic oppression and xenophobia. The sci-fi favorite crash lands on Ultra HD with an impressively beautiful 4K HDR10 presentation and a top-notch, reference-quality Dolby Atmos soundtrack, besting its Blu-ray counterpart. Although it doesn't really offer any new supplemental material to boast about, the overall UHD package is nonetheless highly recommended.

Requiem For A Dream still packs a powerful, stinging gut-punch some twenty years later with its fresh camera techniques, phenomenal score, and haunting imagery, not to mention the incredible performances by all involved. There's nothing quite like this movie still to this day and its message about any kind of addiction. This new 20th Anniversary 4K UHD release has an amazing new transfer with Dolby Vision and a fantastic new Dolby Atmos audio mix. The brand new bonus features are all worthwhile as well. MUST-OWN!

Casino on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray is a revelation. With a reference-quality video transfer that mirrors the look of film better than anything else I’ve yet seen for a 1990s motion picture and upgraded DTS:X audio, this Martin Scorsese masterwork looks and sounds better than ever before.

This release brings together every entry into Peter Jackson's critically-acclaimed The Lord of the Rings trilogy, based on the novels by J.R.R. Tolkien. Hobbit Frodo Baggins and the Fellowship embark on a dangerous quest to destroy the One Ring, and with it, its maker, the Dark Lord Sauron, in order to save Middle Earth forever. Included here are The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002), and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003).

Steven Spielberg's masterful take on the H.G. Wells classic stars Tom Cruise as Ray Ferrier, a divorced New Jersey Everyman whose weekend with his kids (Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin) is shattered by an alien invasion. As the decidedly unfriendly E.T.s and their menacing tripods devastate the planet, Ferrier bravely attempts to reach his ex-wife (Miranda Otto) in Boston, encountering the best and worst of humanity along the way. Tim Robbins also stars. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Getting along with your in-laws can be tough. For newlywed Grace de Lomas (Samara Weaving), it's positively life-threatening. At a gathering with her husband's (Mark O'Brien) wealthy and offbeat family, Grace takes part in a game of hide-and-seek that turns into a desperate fight for survival when it becomes apparent that she's being hunted to the death by her new-and heavily armed-relatives. Laced with pitch-black humor, this quirky thriller also stars Adam Brody, Henry Czerny, and Andie MacDowell. 95 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
