Dark Blue (2002) Limited Edition Hardbox 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray brings Ron Shelton’s gritty neo-noir crime thriller to 4K UHD for the first time worldwide in a deluxe limited edition restored from the original 35mm negative.
 
Set against the explosive backdrop of Los Angeles in the days leading up to the Rodney King verdict and the L.A. riots, Dark Blue follows veteran LAPD detective Eldon Perry as he investigates a brutal quadruple homicide while mentoring an idealistic young rookie through the corrupt realities of policing. As racial tensions rise across the city, Perry’s violent methods, institutional corruption and moral compromises begin spiraling toward inevitable collapse.
 
Written by James Ellroy and directed by Ron Shelton, Dark Blue blends hardboiled crime storytelling with political tension and psychological decay, anchored by a powerhouse performance from Kurt Russell alongside Ving Rhames, Scott Speedman and Brendan Gleeson. Combining explosive action with bleak neo-noir atmosphere, the film remains one of the most underrated crime thrillers of the early 2000s.
