King Car boasts a detailed AVC encoded 1080p HD image with a 2.38:1 aspect ratio, offering dynamic primaries and textured metallic views; however, frequent banding and compression issues are noted, particularly in evening and hazy scenes, amid its vivid Brazil landscape and sci-fi aesthetics.

Audio: 69

The 5.1 DTS-HD MA mix of King Car delivers an engaging audio experience with clear dialogue, energetic EDM tracks, and subtle atmospheric effects. The low-end is crisply defined, while surround channels maintain an active presence, enhancing the immersive experience with unique synth and orchestral textures.

Extra: 51

King Car Blu-Ray Extras offer an engaging behind-the-scenes glimpse with HD footage, deleted scenes, an experimental short film by Renata Pinheiro, and comprehensive still galleries, providing fans with an insightful look into production details and creative processes.

Movie: 51

King Car is an ambitious Brazilian production blending bizarre genre elements and social commentary with mixed success; while its sentient cars convey environmental and political themes, the film struggles with cohesion and storytelling, offering vivid performances amid a surreal narrative.
