Boyz 'N the Hood [Blu-ray] [SteelBook] [Only @ Best Buy] [1991]

Sony has transferred this title to UHD with positive results. Since the Bluray was already reference quality for the time, I expected improvements to be minimal. And while the UHD is definitely better in all areas, you probably won’t experience the bump you’d receive from an older more neglected catalog title. This was the late director John Singleton’s first effort and remains his best. Recommend.

I'm so excited to have this movie in my collection and in 4k I'm happy

Guns n Roses, great deal at Best Buy, one of my most favorite electronic stores.

This is a classic film. Let me repeat that. This is a classic 90s film. Sony has done a wonderful job remastering Boyz n the Hood for 4K UHD Blu-ray. You get an excellent, film-like transfer with a very good amount of grain, improved colors, along with upgraded Dolby ATMOS audio. It doesn't get any better than this. This is a very high quality presentation of Boyz n the Hood and Sony Pictures definitely handled the film with care. It's like a pristine 1 to 1 copy of a 35mm reel. There's no other way to describe it. Shout out to Best Buy for having this in stock. I just wish they would use some a little bubble wrap before placing it in a cardboard box, to prevent damage during the shipping journey. Anyway, this is definitely worth the purchase, especially if you have a 4K TV and a good surround sound system. Definitely looking forward to more classics on the 4K UHD Blu-ray format.

Ok when I watch films I do so on a 180" movie theater screen with full 7.1 surround sound and the Buttkicker transducer system. This is not to Bragg but to give an idea of the clarity that I rate both 4k and 1080p films. 1st off regardless if you are huge into 4k or still collect Blu-ray; I will add that with today's (Oppo) upscaling technology along with upscaling technology on theater projectors that the difference between Blu-ray & 4k is minimal. I will say that going over 180" that you will likely see a difference and recommend 4k for 150"+ screens. Boys In the Hood was a Solid film that did a great job displaying the choices made available and the lifestyle of growing up in the hood. While it is no American History X, I still liked the film a lot ON BLU-RAY! The picture quality was significantly improved for anyone who had this on DVD. The Sound was just OK, I'm sorry but the score was lacking and there really isn't an emotional tone to marvel at. One thing that stood out against ALL others was the performance by Ice Cube. This is the only film I can recall where Ice Cube doesn't act like an over the top gangster in both language and body, yet this is the one film he is supposed to be that to the core.... What can I say about the rest of the cast! Gooding Jr. Was fantastic as was the remainder of the cast. Kudos to the director!

So happy to have this movie it looks awesome and sounds good

Can see a upgrade in picture quality. Better than the blu ray.

The late John Singleton's Oscar-nominated Boyz n the Hood upgrades to 4K UHD Blu-ray. This story of friends living in and trying to survive in South Central L.A. is just as searingly poignant and often gut-wrenching today as it was in 1991. The performances are pitch-perfect and Sony gives this film a worthwhile upgrade. Featuring a native 4K HDR10 presentation with a new Dolby Atmos audio track, the film looks and sounds better than ever worthy of the upgrade.
