Video: 43

Criterion's Le Cercle Rouge 4K Blu-ray release, restored from 35mm, disappoints with flawed color grading, altering film's visual identity.

Audio: 43

The release features a robust French LPCM 1.0 audio track with optional English subtitles, offering a great sound experience without aging signs, yet not dramatically different from previous solid releases.

Extra: 96

All bonus features, including interviews, archival footage, and a booklet on Jean-Pierre Melville's work, are exclusive to the standard Blu-ray, not the 4K disc.

Movie: 86

Criterion's 4K release of 'Le Cercle Rouge' by Melville, a masterfully minimalistic French gangster film starring Delon and Montand, features rich extras and celebrates its iconic heist and nuanced characters.
