Does the PS5 remote really « turns » the interface into a DVD classic player?

Hi All, My wife wants a DVD/Blueray player with a « classic » interface, she wants to buy one, while I’m convinced that having a PS5 vastly does the job! However, she hates to « start a console », navigates menus with a controller and find her way to start a movie. Can you tell me how the look and feel is when using the official « remote » from Sony? For example, when starting the console from the remote, does it immediately go to the « disc » section? Thanks!
