The plot summary on the back, the transfer details, this set is just as strange as it deserves to be. I haven't even started on how beautiful the film itself finally looks.
Thank you Criterion!
A better signature.
just got it and i am looking forward to watching just about everything on it after work tonight. i cant wait!!!
shareInteresting. I have seeen several reviews that said the transfer was really poor so i held out.
shareits not a poor transfer, ive seen better but considering its a universal title, criterion did a much better job with it than universal would have. the bonus features are worth it also.
sharei read it was a *beep* transfer
shareSo now you have one opinion that it was a *beep* transfer and one that it's not.
sharelet me rephrase. I read its not, in a lot of places. Its a *beep* transfer.. check anywhere.
shareOkay, I checked anywhere...

A lot of places say it's not a *beep* transfer. So it's not a fact, just different opinions.

Transfer is beyond exceptional. I blew it up in 1080p on my home theater screen and the improvement from the DVD was breathtaking.
Go to these guys for reviews: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Being-John-Malkovich-Blu-ray/30658/#Revi ew
They are the best and the only ones I trust. Criterion always works with the director on the transfer so that they can get as close to his original intent as possible. I always trust them.
A better signature.
The booklet in the criterion version is funny. Its spoofing the pretentious interviews normally included in those books.
