Tootsie's 4K UHD Blu-ray dazzles with a remarkable 2160p presentation, featuring Dolby Vision and HDR10 that elevate color and contrast to new heights. Skin tones are convincing, hues are rich, and the fine details - from makeup to cityscapes - are immaculately preserved in a filmic and faithful restoration.

Audio: 86

While "Tootsie" offers a newly crafted Dolby Atmos mix providing a wider soundstage and clearer dialogue, it lacks the immersive impact of other releases, making its DTS-HD MA 5.1 and 2.0 mono options equally appealing, given the film's dialogue-heavy nature and original mono roots.

Extra: 61

The "Tootsie" 4K UHD set offers a mixed but engaging array of older and new extras, including a detailed documentary, deleted scenes, and an insightful Dustin Hoffman interview, underscored by a fresh commentary from Cerise Howard and Rohan Spong, although it misses some Criterion exclusives like the Sydney Pollack commentary.

Movie: 83

Tootsie's 4K UHD release captures the enduring charm and intelligence of Sydney Pollack's remarkable 1982 comedy, where Dustin Hoffman's performance as Michael/Dorothy remains compellingly transformative, tackling gender politics with humor and depth, though some aspects feel dated; the pristine video and audio remastering in the Columbia Classics Collection solidifies its cinematic legacy.
