About this deal

Thanks but what I really want are reviewer’s words as those images are of limited value depending on what you view them on. if there is probably also going to be no argument that The Film Vault's decision (perhaps forced) to include a shoddy 1080 presentation may Aside from the compelling storytelling, 'GoodFellas' rewards the viewer with a dramatic depth and richness beyond all the smart dialogue and lively characters. Unlike Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Godfather’ movies which portrayed the mafia families with an air of royalty and stateliness, ‘Goodfellas’ approach is far more down-to-earth. (Compare the Corleone family’s close relationship with the Frank Sinatra-character, who serenades the bride at a grand wedding on their opulent estate, while Hill and his girlfriend “merely” get a front-row seat at a Bobby Vinton performance). Scorsese’s view of the mafia isn’t romanticized to the point where the viewer loses touch with the main characters' carefree world of playing games, entertaining new girlfriends, and spending limitless amounts of money every night.

Warner Bros has brought Goodfellas to UHD with a great transfer and a decent amount of extras, all of which have been carried over from previous releases, though the accompanying booklet and letter with Scorsese’s signature from the 25th Anniversary Blu-ray is notably absent. A few new things could have been added to spice things up, including the film’s marketing campaign, but as is, this is still a nice Ultra HD upgrade.

Film Vault, something that is probably only exacerbated by the fact that this release includes an older 1080 release as well with VC-1 encoded video Goodfellas is both a warning and an invitation.

Also what is the BD version like? More often than not, a 'poor' UHD transfer has an even worse BD transfer so just because its cheaper, doesn't mean the gain isn't still significant. Is the remastered BD 'better' or are we assuming on this? Genuinely asking as I've been burnt by that before, thinking a 4K transfer isn't great, then immediately doing an AB comparison and seeing how poor the BD release is was somewhat eye opening. It’s difficult to measure the long-term influence that Goodfellas has had on everything in its wake. It’s essentially perfect from top to bottom, outclassing nearly every story of its type, and breaking every rule in the book along the way. From pacing to performances to story, it’s one of the most imminently rewatchable films ever made. It traces the journey of Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), a man whose ambition is to join the world of New York mobsters under the watchful eye of Pauly (Paul Sorvino), the head of the organization. He befriends Jimmy (Robert De Niro), a cool but calculating criminal; Tommy (Joe Pesci), a hot-headed but loyal friend to them both; and Karen (Lorraine Bracco), a strong woman whom he eventually marries and brings into his way of life.respected as "a good earner". Henry doesn't yet see the limits on his life, because daily existence being curated from both the Warner Brothers Discovery and Universal catalogs, which hopefully will increase the opportunities for appealing choices.
