Negative Positive
Title: for the Blu-ray release.
Review: This is the worst transfer to blu-ray of a major film that I have ever seen. Film grain is missing, but so is sharpness of image. Contrast is poor with blacks especially lacking. Night scenes are not nearly as visible as they should be. Skin tones are too red and there is haloing in some scenes. A disgrace. I don't know anything about who owns the rights to this film, but a hi def version of the Criterion release would have been infinitely better than this. I would definitely wait for a reissue before purchasing.
Is the review positive or negative?
