The Scorsese masterpiece flaunts its stuff with a strong HEVC H.265 encode in HDR10 made from the same 4K remaster of the original elements used for last year's 25th Anniversary Blu-ray. Although the results don't quite compare to other Ultra HD releases, the presentation showcases several notable improvements though the upgrade is pretty minor and subtle. Paper is Cheaper than Film– Essentially a fancy way of showing some storyboard to screen comparisons by Scorcese. that I am not always a fan of how shot on film productions tend to look in the increased resolution of 4K, and that's once again the case with this Plot: What’s it about?

Henry Hill might be a small time gangster, who may have taken part in a robbery with Jimmy Conway and Tommy De Vito, two other gangsters who might have set their sights a bit higher.

Henry, however, might be badly affected by his partners' success, but will he consider stooping low enough to bring about the downfall of Jimmy and Tommy? The overall texture of the image reminds me most of Columbia's Ghostbusters in 4k, which looks akin to projection of a 35mm print.

Again, I haven't seen the disc as I don't own it (hush, Goodfella's ain't anywhere near the top of my fave gangster pics....... ) and I'm not trying to rag on the kit involved (again, the above review is massively favourable). But with these new UHDs the benefits have the potential to be so incremental that we could very well have such small issues like the calibration on a specific TV being the difference between a 'good disc' and a 'not so good disc'. shelf room for this impressive new series being distributed by The Film Vault.

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. This release also includes two Blu-rays from the 25th Anniversary Blu-ray release. One featuring the film in 1080p, and the other containing a set of extras: DISC ONE – 4K MOVIE 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. believe that the colors of the 2007 release were accurate.

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.
