Massive upgrade over my old DVD. Blu-ray is still very good, but worth the extra money for the 4K as it 'really ties the room together'. My favourite Coen's film. Subvert's the classic LA noir trope, by having the eponymous 'hero' play the Marlowe-esque detective character as a burnt-out hippy, that instead of being one step ahead is in fact always one step behind. With subtext ranging from the fear of castration, to the rise of female empowerment and questions the increasingly diminishing role of masculinity in the modern era. A classic film that has a cult following yet was still a mainstream success in 1998. Loved by critics and adored by fans, staring a never better Jeff Bridges as 'The Dude' is truly one for the ages.

Jeff Bridges is awesome in this as "The Dude", so many quotable lines in this superb Coen brothers classic

Finally the 'The Big Lebowski' got a beautiful new transfer. It is sharp with a healthy amount of visible film grain, but it isn't thick or constantly there. Colours are vivid but not oversaturated, the image just looks super fresh and film like. Not really Demo material, but certainly the best the Dude has ever looked. Highly recommended!

great movie with a good 4k movie transfer. was looking forward to watching this again for a long time. I'm glad i added the 4k version to my collection
