Criterion 4K Blu-ray (included in John Singleton's Hood Trilogy set)
Criterion 4K Blu-ray is better than the earlier Sony 4K Blu-ray, which suffered from low-pass filtering and poor compression. Caps
Original matrixed Dolby Stereo mix: Criterion 4K Blu-ray, a better transfer than the Sony 4K Blu-ray
The Sony 4K Blu-ray includes an earlier 5.1 remix, which is mostly faithful to the original mix and lightly enhances and opens it up, as well as Dolby Atmos remix which is slightly more aggressive.
Criterion's release also includes a different Atmos remix to the one included from Sony, significantly more aggressive than previous releases, going for a more "immersive" feel.
