## Description

A jolt of adrenaline shot straight to the heart of 1990s British cinema, this darkly funny adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s novel was a major breakthrough for director Danny Boyle, producer Andrew Macdonald, and screenwriter John Hodge. With live-wire energy and stylistic verve, Trainspotting bounces across the life and times of Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor), a Scottish heroin addict who, along with his misfit mates, gets high, gets in trouble, gets clean, and gets high again, all in a bid to outrun the banality of modern existence. Kinetically cut to an iconic soundtrack of techno, rock, and Brit-pop, this indie phenomenon chooses life in all its ugly, beautiful, terrifying exhilaration.FILMMAKER-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital restoration of the uncut version of the film, supervised by director Danny Boyle, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film presented in Dolby Vision HDR and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresAlternate 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackAudio commentary featuring Boyle, producer Andrew Macdonald, screenwriter John Hodge, and actor Ewan McGregorNine deleted scenes with commentary from the filmmakersNew interview with production designer Kave Quinn and costume designer Rachael FlemingOff the Rails: The Making of “Trainspotting,” a documentary featuring archival interviews with cast and crew and behind-the-scenes footageMemories of “Trainspotting,” a documentary from 2008 featuring the filmmakers as well as actors McGregor, Kelly Macdonald, Ewen Bremner, and Robert CarlyleReflections from soundtrack artists Iggy Pop, Jarvis Cocker, Bobby Gillespie, Damon Albarn, Leftfield, and UnderworldTheatrical teaser and trailerEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: Essays by critic Graham Fuller and author Irvine Welsh, Welsh’s glossary of terms from the novel, and limited-edition glow-in-the-dark packaging

Review: Great copy - Too many people spend their time reviewing the movie itself, and not the quality of the disc. This movie (and the book) is one of my favorites, that’s why I bought it. I’ve seen it many times from VHS, to streaming to DVD and now Blu Ray. This is a fantastic copy. The quality of the picture and sound are great. This is a very music & narration driven movie, all of which sound perfect on my (cheap) surround sound system. It says it’s a 4k transfer from the film stock, but nowhere on the box or disc did I see “4kUHD” so I cannot verify the actual quality at this time. But to my informed eyes, it looks fantastic. None of that waxy skin that comes from AI upscaling that some of the 4k movies now have. I also appreciate that it comes in a hard plastic case that’s similar to other bluray cases. Sometimes criterion movies come in some awful cardboard cases with the discs shoved into the flaps and they’re hard to get out without getting your fingerprints all over the bottom. This isn’t a movie for everyone, it’s about 4 friends who are heroin addicts in Scotland. It’s a comedy drama, and a masterpiece. Danny Boyle is a great director (28 Days Later, Slumdog Millionaire) and he did an amazing job with this. There’s some dark themes, and gross moments in this. But it’s all artistically done. The sequel is also really good. Choose life. Choose buying and watching this blue ray disc in the comfort of your own home and enjoying a fantastic movie.
Review: Great movie and cool packaging - This is an incredible movie that I would recommend to almost anyone (I still remember the first time I saw Renton diving into the worst toilet in Scotland to fish out his suppositories… I was eating pizza at the time…quite an awful experience in a really great way), but I’m not writing this review to sing it’s well deserved praises I’m writing it to scold the other reviews that complain about the packaging being bad. No, it’s not bad. It’s cool. And the fact that you bought this movie and can’t see that is extremely puzzling to me. Because if you’re buying this movie I would think you might have a bit of imagination and an openness to creativity. Like creative and cool packaging. But somehow that seems to be lacking. Anyway. If you like this movie and you are creative and like cool stuff then I highly recommend this Criterion version. If on the other hand you lack those attributes maybe skip it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of Criterions best 4k transfers
*by F***S on February 2, 2024*

This looks extra amazing, colors are so much brighter with so much clarity and detail over pervious blu-ray and DVD versions. Does have some slight film grain so it does look like you are watching a film it has not been scrubbed free from any film grain. The 5.1 mix is also just the best with all the fantastic original music you remember. I am not crazy about the packaging but it playful and fun and was not made into a standardized version for mass consumption. I could see this glossy paper version selling out. The Disc menu + music is just the best and will have you humming along in no time! This is one for cinephiles, movie collectors and as well fans of the Criterion movie catalog. This is the 90s version equal to the cultural zeigest as much as Easy Rider was to the 60's counter culture. I love it!
