A nice improvement over the DVD, the Blu-ray’s new transfer improves upon that edition in many ways, starting with the new progressive transfer. While not all supplements made it over, Criterion left the more important features, the best of which is the KSAN radio program. For those that either own ...

Similar to how I feel about the DVD the Blu-ray is disappointing. The transfer looks absolutely incredible and it sounds good, but the small list of supplements do make this release feel a little overpriced. I can give it a mild recommendation (a better one if you can find it really cheap.)

Gomorrah, though critically acclaimed, has divided its audiences, some won over by its unglamourous take on organized crime and others finding this presentation a little tedious. I’m with the former group, finding the film an excellent counter point to the more glamourous Hollywood gangster films (w...

It’s actually like watching it for the first time and high-definition seems to better suit Ivory’s intended look for the film. On previous home video versions it really did lose its sumptuous feel but in high-definition the film without doubt looks and feels grander and actually a little, shall I sa...
