Repo Man — 4K 10/19/24
The Criterion Collection
4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray
“Let’s go do some crimes!” Reviewer Charlie Largent turns his critical eye on this 4K upgrade of Alex Cox’s debut feature, a punk slam on the Reagan years. A legendary cast lives the edgy life in sunny Los Angeles — Emilio Estevez, Harry Dean Stanton, Tracey Walter, Vonetta McGee. The abuse of alcohol and other controlled substances fits right in with a Sci-fi vibe lifted from apocalyptic films noir: “It happens sometimes. People just explode. Natural causes.” Kudos to camera genius Robby Müller and exec producer Michael Nesmith. “It’s what I call the Repo Code, kid!” On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from The Criterion Collection.
