PLOT SYNOPSIS<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Cassie (ROSEMARIE DEWITT) is a real estate agent and single mom struggling to keep it all together during the housing crisis of 2009. Her problems go from bad to worse when disgruntled client Sonny (DANNY MCBRIDE) violently confronts Cassie\u2019s boss (cameo by Seth Rogen) and then kidnaps Cassie \u2014 making one outrageously bad, and bloody, decision after another. Things completely spiral out of control.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

4K VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5, BD VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The movie is presented with a fine looking if not also pretty lackluster 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 2160p high-definition transfer (HEVC\/H.265 codec). Not that this was a poor looking transfer, actually it doesn\u2019t look half bad but you could\u2019ve fooled me that this was in 4K. Comparing it directly with the 1080p Blu-ray version, the difference is rather negligible, perhaps the 4K UHD was a bit sharper and there was an ever-so-minor upgrade to the brightness with the HDR, but even there\u2019s not a night and day difference.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

AUDIO \u2013 3.75\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The 4K UHD and Blu-ray both come with a standard DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track which is on the basic side of things providing with fine dialogue levels through the center channel while the front and rear channels are rather light.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Overall, Arizona<\/em><\/strong> doesn\u2019t break new ground in the crime-comedy genre but if you like Danny McBride\u2019s style of humor and delivery, you\u2019ll likely get some entertainment value out of it and I did find some moments fairly humorous. This 4K release is fine though the transfer is not a whole lot different from its Blu-ray counterpart.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\nThese are only here to give an idea of the movie\u2019s video quality and may not be truly representative of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
