They’re DCP files. You could get something like DCP-o-matic to convert it to mp4, but it would be very difficult to actually get ahold of a DCP from a theatre to begin with. Also, it’s just straight up not worth it.

The video quality isn’t any better. They’re either 3996x2160 (flat) or 4096x1716 (scope). A 4k blue Ray is 3840x2160.
