There have been numerous versions of Some Like It Hot through the years. And I was pleased with each release.But the new Criterion Collection Blu-ray release will have to be the crown jewel of all these releases.With the Criterion edition, the viewer will see a much sharper and crisper image, and the sound is strong and steady.The MGM 2011 Blu-ray edition is also darn good, but Criterion’s 4K digital restoration reveals image details that I have overlooked from many past viewings.The MGM Blu-ray release has an assortment of extras that are not presented with the Criterion edition. While the Criterion release offers a large selection of new extras not found in any past editions.Criterion’s Blu-ray edition of Some Like It Hot is a first class presentation of this classic madcap romp, and it will be a welcome addition to any film fan’s collection.

This was a 2 disc criterion collection edition of "Some Like It Hot". It played just great and there are no complaints on this movie. Jack Lemmon's portrayal was fantastic and I had forgotten how good Tony Curtis was in his role of Joe/Josephine. The fabulous Marilyn Monroe was fantastic but you could see she was struggling with drug and alcohol issues during some of her scenes, especially in the later parts of the movie (when she has to come into the room and say" where's the bourbon," after being let down by Joe/Shell Oil Jr.). All the supporting players are super, there isn't enough space in this review to name them all. One of my favorite films from when I was a kid, so glad I have it in my collection!

I have the 2011 Blu-ray edition and now the 2018 Criterion edition, so I may compare video quality. I am watching on an HD (not 4K) 55" screen, with Sony Blu-ray player and Sony HD flat panel LED screen, connected via HDMI. Swapping discs back and forth, looking at details in the same scenes, I am convinced the Criterion edition is clearer and cleaner than the 2011 release. The earlier Blu-ray had obvious video noise in textures like fur collars. Faces and very fine patterns on luggage are sharper in the 2018 release.

Referring to some other reviewers' comments: the Criterion disc did come in a Blu-ray sized case, not the larger DVD sized case, although the Criterion Blu-ray sized case was just slightly wider (thicker?) than others I have. The "4K" version played fine on my HD Sony Blu-ray player. I watched both in Full Mono audio, and didn't notice any audio difference.

I was very interested to observe that the Criterion package notes a 1.85:1 form factor while the 2011 package notes a 1.66:1 form factor. I swapped back and forth to see the difference, knowing my TV is 16x9 (1.77:1). Not much difference at first, which did not make sense. Finally, after experimenting with screen settings in both the Blu-ray player and the flat panel TV (after years of use of both!), I pin-pointed one setting on the TV ("full pixel") that resulted in displaying the proper rasters: full top-to-bottom with narrow black side bands for 1.66:1, and full side-to-side with narrower black top and bottom bands for 1.85:1. These editions are indeed different as marked!

Finally, just weeks before this 2018 release of Some Like It Hot was a new 4K release of The Apartment, with Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine; this recent edition offers a just as notable and impressive quality improvement. Consider it!

This is the best quality version of SOME LIKE IT HOT, and features the excellent commentary track that was on the original Criterion laser disc. It is scholarly and talks about the film as if it it worthy of study. Completely different from the previous blu ray which has two contemporary comics laughing through the film, and repeating punch lines before they are delivered. The image is much improved, too. Billy Wilder and Marilyn Monroe freaks will adore this version, whereas the other one is basically an embarrassment. I have bought this film over and over, (always at a discount, except for the first time) the original laser disc, the improved Warner Bros. gatefold, the lv Criterion laser. the first dvd version, the "improved version with the tacky commentary, which I ended up buying twice because the first used one was defective. Then in the blu-ray of that, and I later ended up with another as a part of a Monroe set that included this. Finally, Criterion resuscitated their laser in blu ray. This is, by far, the best version. The film remains extraordinary. I saw it first, when I was in the ninth grade in '59. I saw it, the day after it opened. in downtown Columbus. I had bought the paperback version of the script and tried to follow along with the dialogue. To say that I am a fan is a
massive understatement. This is the best way to enjoy the dilm. today, short of a revival in an old fashioned big screen theatre.

The disk includes several interviews with the stars, which are fascinating. The characters, the fast paced plot, George Raft as "Spats Columbo" from the South side of Chicago - Marilyn Munroe at her peak - Jack Lemon and Tony Curtis as a perfect dynamic - what a fantastic movie!!
