Joe Pesci is their charge, and his performance sets new records for the most annoying character in a film. The action is dizzying enough without the unnatural pans added by the pan and scan process. Cropping the image also makes the action hard to follow, since you can't tell what is supposed to be happening on the other side of the screen. The pan and scan transfer looks relatively good. The image isn't as sharp as the Letterboxed version, but it is acceptable.
Colors are fairly pleasing on the pan and scan transfer.
Digital artifacts were noticeable in a couple of places. Fortunately, the Letterboxed transfer starts up right after the erroneous message. The transfer has good detail, even through some of the more difficult low light scenes. Colors appeared fresh and natural. Digital artifacts weren't noticeable, even in the dark sequences where they usually rear their ugly heads.
