As J-Lo might say, "don't be fooled by the rocks that I got, I'm still Benny from the Bronx".
Such an incredible film.
That pool scene in Carlitos Way and the chainsaw scene from Scarface are so identical in terms of tenseness, I love it. Yeah, my mom showed me Scarface and Carlito's Way when I was a teenager and loved them both ever since. Both have that GTA Vice City vibe and that videoame is a big part of my childhood.
No, GTA Vice City is influenced by these films, not vice versa.
@@damienx0x ...I know. But I played GTA vice city first
I recall renting Carlito's Way when I was young and thinking it was a pefect movie at the time. I haven't seen it since. It was so good I just savored the experience. I recently picked it up on 4k and I'm looking forward to watching it again.
Essential De Palma you may not have seen:
Carrie
The Fury
Blow Out
The Untouchables
Casualties of War
Raising Cain
Snake Eyes
I'm watching Blow Out tonight!
One of his best. @@midlevelmedia
I haven't heard of a few of these DePalma films. Thank you
@@68WCombatMedic702 Blow Out is amazing!
I don’t want to import so I’m hoping Arrow (or whoever) will release Blow Out and Dressed to Kill on 4K in the UK
Sean Penn as Kleinfeld is a direct inspiration for Ken Rosenberg from Grand Theft Auto Vice City
It's also important to note that the Arrow is (probably) going to have better compression than the Universal 4K. Arrow compression is going to be better than the compression on a studio label basically 99/100 times.
I own the original 4k release of carlito's way, it looks absolutely gorgeous so i probably wont be picking this up but carlito's way is one of my absolute favorite films ever. My favorite films of his are dressed to kill, scarface, body double, carrie and his most underrated are casualities of war and blow out with travolta. if you havent seen those their both fantastic!
Great movie. It's a nice release, but I didn't get it cause I have the universal 4k
This came out during a time of gangster films flooding theaters. It was overlooked. Released at a bad time for sure. It's a brillant film. Thanks MLM.
My favorite mafia movie is Scarface but in second place is Carlito's Way and both star Pacino. Good review and cool video Ken!👉😃👈
I remember the first time that I watched Carlito's Way when it came out on laserdisc, it quickly became one of my absolute favorite movies. Being such a fan of this film, I actually didn't mind when someone I knew had nicknamed me Carlito! Anyway, great review, I already have this on preorder and can't wait to check it out, as I've been in the mood to see it again.
Carlitos Way is better than Scarface imo!?
It's tough, but damn I might agree
It is, and that shouldn’t be a controversial take
Yeah, but the best performance was in scarface.
Without question
I agree 100% all the way around. This is one of my favorite films . Arrow is the king. This is a movie that is an exception. A must double dip if you love this movie.
Finding out this is a Brian De Palma makes so much sense why I loved this movie when I saw it years ago. Scarface is one of my favorite movies ever and I love Carrie a lot, I'll definitely pick this.
Absolutely agree, Carlito's Way is fantastic.
Benny Blanco from the Bronx
Awesome review Ken! Yeah I've become a big De Palma fan myself (I even just did a top 10 list of his films), and I can't wait to get this one from Arrow. I saw Carlito's Way in the theaters when it first came out and loved it... I was on a huge Al Pacino kick for a number of years back then (he used to be my all-time favorite actor). For me, his best roles were Scarface and Scent of a Woman (followed closely by Dog Day Afternoon). But Carlito's Way is up there too!
Just out of curiosity, why isn't he your all-time favorite actor anymore??
Brian De Palma is a phenomenal director, all his movies have a certain flair and addictive style which are unique to him.
I'd also recommend you to watch:
1) Blow Out (his best film ever)
2) Carrie
3) Sisters
4) Casualties of War
5) The Untouchables
This is an easy double dip!!
Yo Ken! I was really looking foward to your thoughts on this one. It's one of my all-time favorites. I'm really glad you loved it. Such an awesome movie. I'm hoping to pick up this Arrow version. Rock on dude.
Thanks! I really loved this movie!
I've always sort of thought of Carlito's way as Goodfella's younger cousin. Definitely an underrated classic and am excited this is finally getting the big box treatment it deserves.
The Devil’s Advocate
Great movie!
Legendary film! Pre-ordered off the strength of the amazing new cover art alone. Excellent set by Arrow. Great review here. I was happy to add this no-brainer set to my collection.
It's a fantastic release!
@midlevelmedia love your work, keep it up... man, fomo is kicking in hard does anybody knows if this transfer has subtitles?? More specifically I am looking for Spanish subtitles since my wife does not understand English that well... 😅
It’s Benny Blanco From the Bronx
i already have the UK set from universal theres not enough to justify a double dip,the untouchables is my favorite de palma film also there's a documentary movie called de palma were he talks about his whole Career you might want to check out
rewatched this recently - holds up well
Glad you dug it. One of my favs.
For sure! A movie we can agree on. 😂
@@midlevelmedia lol
Well you talked me into it lol
Check out Raising Cain another Arrow release with John Lithgow.
Brian DePalma also killed it with Mission Impossible 1. it’s my favorite MI movie by a mile. idk if you’ve seen it but highly recommend it
Just got Shout Factory’s Natural Born Killers 4K
I have the slipcover of this but really like the boxset! Should I double dip? Uncertain…if it’s around after the new year, I might pick it up
I double dipped because it's one of my favorite movies. If it's not one of your favorites then I would pass if I were you.
Carlito's Way great movie Sean Penn awesome!
I loved it!
My ignorance is quite high with “mob films.” I’ve seen bits and pieces of them but was never all into them but now this is making me want to…love arrow but don’t know if I need this exact release but I’ll check it out
Definitely watch this movie. Much more than the traditional Mob movie
I already have a 4k Ultra HD Steelbook of Carlito's Way 👊👊📽
Nice!
I'm ok with the universal 4k ultra HD Blu-ray combo pack of Carlito's way in my opinion, i don't need the Arrow video copy of the movie.
Question:Does the Universal 4K includes the Spanish language track?🤔
For me, this is Al Pacino and Brian De Palma’s best film. Imo
Legenda em português
I honestly can't believe you praised Leguizamo's performance and yet got his character Benny BLANCO'S name wrong. "I'm Benny Blanco from the Bronx" is a line nearly as classic as "Say hello to my little friend." I've never heard anyone get that wrong, much less a movie reviewer.
First time watch and I was excited to talk about it. Minor flub. Chill dude.
They could have have the steelbook in this set
It’s Benny Blanco not Blanc lol which is Benny White in Spanish. U funny guy lol
Deep Cover rip off according to Fishburne , but I like this movie too good review
Maybe visually in some aspects, but story wise I don't see the comparison at all. I love Deep Cover by the way.
@@midlevelmedia Fishburne did mentioned Carlito’s Way film style was similar, I would double dip in the special feat if they give Mr Bill Duke credit for using his style, both films should be studied
Don't need those special features. I almost never watch them. Just going to buy the cheapest version. The box doesn't interest me neater.
I only watched scarface once and that was a few years ago. With how much it was put on a pedestal, I thought it was absolutely junk. My carlitos set just got delivered today and I haven't seen it myself. Hoping it's good!
Take this L
@@PesterFester1966 I thought it sucked man. Overrated. I'm sorry
@@NYC_Goody How is it overrated and why don't you like it cause there's alot of these revisionist hipsters out there who love to rewrite history and pretend these films we're never good in the past but i want to hear from you about Scarface cause your respond is coming off a little pretentious.
@@PesterFester1966 I loved goodfellas and casino. So it's not like I don't like gangster movies. I liked de Palmas blow out. I just didn't enjoy scarface. You writing a mini thesis on me insinuating I'm possibly a revisionist hipster or how I'm pretentious for not liking a movie is kind of weird. There is no revisionist nonsense anyways because it's all subjective. Those people just didn't like it. You either do or ya don't.
@@NYC_Goody Calling Scarface absolute junk is pretty pathetic and disgusting, If you would of said i didn't like it for whatever reason, Could of said it a little more fluidly and genuine cause you are coming off a bit of a hipster nutjob... Maybe might not be your cup of mayonnaise but nothing you say about it will ever bring it down especially it's influence on Hip-Hop and video games so screw you and have a nice day hipster.
And yes Carlito's Way is vastly overhyped and not original so i could play this game to of being a hipster bringing down films... It's quite fun 🤗
You say top 5 performance? He is playing a Puerto Rican and he slips in and out of the accent.
Casualties of War was not a very good one from DePalma. Carlito's Way is much better than Scarface.
You might be right
Great movie but too much time spent on his romance
I liked those parts and thought they were important to the overall story.
