While Personal Shopper's narrative is uneven and polarizing, Criterion's Blu-ray release impresses with its excellent technical presentation and audio/visual quality.

Supervised by director of photography Yorick Le Saux and approved by director Olivier Assayas, Personal Shopper's Blu-ray, encoded in MPEG-4 AVC at 1080p with a 2.40:1 aspect ratio, offers stunning clarity, excellent depth, and balanced color reproduction—even in darker scenes. The 5.1 surround audio was mastered from original digital files using Pro Tools HD.

Audio: 85

The Blu-ray audio presentation of 'Personal Shopper' offers an English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track with portions in French, replicating the final mix approved by the creators. The soundtrack excels in clarity and nuanced dynamics, effectively supporting the film's atmospheric elements with no audio dropouts or distortions.

Extra: 50

The Extras for 'Personal Shopper' are commendable but lean, featuring a candid interview with Olivier Assayas, an insightful 2016 Cannes press conference, the theatrical trailer, and a critical essay by Glenn Kenny.

Movie: 67

Personal Shopper masterfully blends a psychological thriller with a ghost story, where Kristen Stewart's nuanced portrayal of grief unfolds through Assayas' unique cinematic eye, albeit with occasional detachment. The Criterion Blu-ray enhances with insightful interviews and a Cannes press conference, encapsulating the film's compelling yet uneven narrative.
