Title: Rough Blu-Ray Transfer
Review: I don't have a lot to add to other recent reviews. Great movie, weak transfer. Detail is weak, colors are murky, and this looks like it was sourced from an old, worn out print. I have a hard time thinking that this film couldn't look better, based on the fact that Martin Scorsese directed it, and the director of photography obviously cared about their role...based on the amazing jib/crane shots alone. I just hope that a better print exists somewhere, and will make it to Blu-Ray someday.On the bright side, there appears to be little DNR, and the image is free from other signs of age, such as scratches, etc.For as much as I was impressed by the blu-ray of "Raising Arizona" (a film of similar vintage), I am equally dismayed by this transfer.
Is the review positive or negative?
