Video: 75

The 1080p Blu-ray transfer of 'BlacKkKlansman' masterfully captures fine details and balanced colors from its native 4K digital intermediate, maintaining a vintage color palette and sharp clarity while demonstrating strong contrasts, though black levels and blooming whites could be slightly improved.

Audio: 75

BlacKkKlansman's Dolby Atmos soundtrack is a masterclass in utilizing object-based audio for a film driven by dialogue, offering impressive musical saturation, immersive crowd cheers, lifelike environmental details, and crystal-clear dialogue, though it may require slight volume adjustment.

Extra: 16

The Blu-ray extras for 'BlacKkKlansman' include a brief featurette and an extended trailer set to Prince's 'Mary Don't You Weep.' While informative, the limited content leaves much to be desired given the rich historical context of the film.

Movie: 81

Spike Lee’s 'BlacKkKlansman' deftly tackles 1970s race relations with a blend of humor and gravity, masterfully balancing the story of Ron Stallworth’s infiltration of the Ku Klux Klan. John David Washington delivers a powerful performance, supported by Adam Driver's compelling portrayal of Jewish Detective Flip Zimmerman. The Blu-ray presentation is top-tier, enhancing Lee's impactful narrative.
