Warner Archive's Mr. Lucky boasts a dazzling 1080p transfer from a 4K scan, retaining its original 1.37:1 aspect ratio. While dark scenes display minor posterization and black crush, it surpasses previous editions with clear images and excellent grayscale, offering a near-pristine, authentic viewing experience.

Audio: 91

The DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mix delivers a pristine and seamless presentation, prioritizing clear dialogue and Roy Webb's evocative score, free from hiss or distortion, embodying a technically proficient and aurally immersive experience.

Extra: 36

Mr. Lucky Blu-ray extras include a nostalgic Lux Radio Theater adaptation (1943) and Screen Director’s Playhouse (1950), both starring Cary Grant, accompanied by a vintage theatrical trailer—providing audio-visual context to the film in a charmingly historic manner.

Movie: 71

Mr. Lucky delivers a classic charm with Cary Grant's portrayal of a cunning conman, elevated by his natural charisma and a sterling performance from Laraine Day. The Blu-ray edition revitalizes this overlooked gem with a sharp 4K restoration and enriched audio, offering a familiar yet engaging narrative bolstered by a robust supporting cast.
