Shot on Arri Alexa with a 2K digital master, Warner's 1080p AVC-encoded Blu-ray of 'Going in Style' offers excellent sharpness, detailed textures, and natural color grading. The presentation features solid blacks, minimal noise, and pleasing depth, creating a vivid and engaging viewing experience despite occasional yellow tints and minor aliasing.

Audio: 68

The 5.1 DTS-HD MA track on the Blu-ray of *Going in Style* is front-heavy but effectively manages ambient sounds and dialogue, with occasional energetic LFE support during key scenes like bank robberies and a carnival. The mix is crisp, clean, and well-rendered, though not immersive.

Extra: 38

Director Zach Braff's commentary offers insightful, if sometimes dry, details on logistics and technical challenges, while 13 minutes of deleted scenes provide additional humor. Extras include a Bonus DVD, Digital HD Copy, and introductory trailers, enhancing the viewing experience.

Movie: 66

Going in Style (2017) features a lighthearted blend of recession-era revenge and twilight years comedy. Directed by Zach Braff, it surpasses the original with strong performances from Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and Alan Arkin. While the plot is predictable and script generic, the film’s charm and chemistry keep it engaging, if not groundbreaking. The Blu-ray offers solid viewing with minimal supplemental materials.
