Raging Bull (Special Edition)
Robert De Niro teams with director Martin Scorsese in this "extraordinarily compelling" (Leonard Maltin) film that introduced unflinching realism to stunned audiences in 1980. An "exceedingly violentas well as poetic" fight picture that maps "the landscape of the soul" (The New York Times),Raging Bull garnered eight OscarÂ(r) nominations* and won two, including Best Actor for De Niro. De Niro gives the performance of his career as Jake La Motta, a boxer whose psychological and sexual complexities erupt into violence both in and out of the ring. Joe Pesci and Cathy Moriarty are unforgettable as the brother who falls prey to Jake's mounting paranoia and jealousy, and the fifteen-year-old girl who becomes his most prized trophy. A "brilliantly photographed film of extraordinary power and rare distinction" (The Wall Street Journal), Raging Bullis filmmaking at its riveting best. *1980: Best Picture, Director, Supporting Actor (Pesci), Supporting Actress (Moriarty), Cinematography, Sound, Editing (won) more

Bull on blu is a knock-out!
This is a blu-ray for film lovers. The film grain has been reproduced beautifully. There is some minor ringing on a few high contrast edges, but other than that nit-pick, this looks just like watching it at the movie theater, but with a pristine print. Looks just as Scorcese intended in...

The GREATEST of the DeNiro/Scorsese films!
Of the eight films that Robert DeNiro and Martin Scorsese have made together, "Raging Bull" remains the GREATEST. Although all of them are GREAT. But how could they not be when you have a collaboration of America's GREATEST actor with one of the all-time GREAT directors. Anytime there is a paring...

A Work of Art
I haven't seen this movie since it opened. I think it was dark, confusing and overwhelming. I tended to avoid it over the years because of what I perceived as its length and how good the movie really was. Seeing it now is a revelation. I am able to comprehend it more and found it wonderful....

BRUTAL, AND MESMERIZING
Only one other film on fighting has the raw power of this masterpiece ( MILLION DOLLAR BABY ). De Niro is simply stunning in his portrayal of Jake LaMotta, and is pretty nearly matched by Joe Pesci, and Cathy Moriarty ( as, respectively, his brother, and the young girl that becomes his wife )....

This movie was stupid.
I'm a boxing fan and train often but I have no idea why people like this movie. It's a story about a cocky, arrogant jerk who likes to abuse the people around him both mentally and physically. Most of the movie is of him degrading women, screaming profanities to them and hitting them. In one...

A Well Shot and acted movie about an unworthy individual.
Alright the guy could take a punch and even give a few back but he beat women, was an overall f-up, and basically contributed nothing to society which should be remembered. The direction and acting are top notch but without a worthy individual to tell about the end result is a big "so what?" I...

Scorcese and DeNiro's Best Work - How can a film about such ugly people be so beautiful?
This definitely isn't your average feel-good, stereotypical, underdog boxing movie. After all, Sly Stallone was the sole owner to the keys to that kingdom four years prior w/ his beloved "Rocky". In fact, this film really isn't about boxing at all (although there's a plethora of savage, short...

Raging Bull is a TKO.
Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull (1980) is the best boxing film ever. Adapted by Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver) from Jake LaMotta's memoir, Raging Bull: My Story, Scorsese's crisp black-and-white film chronicles the middleweight champion's controversial life and temperamental personality both inside...
