Deception Blu-ray
20th Century Fox | 2008 | 107 mins | Rated R | Sep 23, 2008
Deception(2008)Drama | Romance | Thriller     "Are you free tonight?" A simple enough question, but how Jonathan McQuarry answers it will change his life forever. A corporate auditor adrift in a sea of New York's power elite, Jonathan's work is his entire life. But, a chance meeting with Wyatt Bose, a charismatic corporate lawyer, introduces Jonathan to a decadent playground for Manhattan's executive upper crust. For these power brokers, whose 18-hour workdays leave no time for a personal life, there's "The List"—a sex club, of sorts, where the right cell-phone number and four simple words ("Are you free tonight?") can lead to an evening's sexual fulfillment. It's a world of "intimacy without intricacy," as Jonathan's first conquest (or vice versa) explains to him, and through The List Jonathan discovers a side of himself that he didn't know existed. But an affair with a ravishing and mysterious stranger known to Jonathan only by her first initial 'S', will expose him to yet another world he never imagined—one of betrayal, treachery and murder.

Deception looks great on Blu-ray, the film's 1080p, 2.40:1-framed transfer sharp as a tack and a pleasure to watch. Deception is a dark movie but remains glossy and vibrant, thanks to some slick photography (the work of cinematographer Dante Spinotti shines through; he's worked on such films as The Insider, Heat, and L.A. Confidential) and nice, bright contrasts to the many dark corners of the film. Black levels are remarkable throughout, always an inky, deep black with not even a hint of anything but perfection. Detail is also uniformly excellent, whether we are seeing close-ups of the actors or more ordinary objects, such as columns in a subway station that feature excellent texture and a lifelike reproduction and depth. Much of the film is dark, with clothing, locales, and objects tending to be black and gray, particularly during the first half of the film, which consists of numerous nighttime sequences. However, the film brightens up considerably with a number of daytime scenes during the final act, providing plenty of eye-popping color. These sharp and lifelike daytime scenes furnish the transfer with strong, deep, highly detailed pictures, both near and far. The transfer is rarely soft, and flesh tones appear consistently accurate. If nothing else, Deception is a handsomely photographed film that looks wonderful on Blu-ray Deception Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Deception arrives on Blu-ray with a DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless surround sound audio track. The movie is a dialogue-heavy thriller with a plethora of sequences that add a bit of dramatic flair to the picture. The disc does an admirable job of creating an excellent atmosphere, whether we are in a bustling office with voices, the ringing of telephones, and other true-to-the-environment niceties, or in a dimly lit club with pulsating beats and hard-hitting lows that surround viewers and place them firmly in the midst of the action. Bass plays a role throughout the film, as several scenes are accompanied by some impressive lows. One scene in particular, found in chapter 16, will rattle your windows and send your pets scurrying for cover. Dialogue holds up very well, even during the loudest scenes where the music never tones down too much in favor of the dialogue; the two play in great harmony one against the other. The quieter scenes feature the strongest dialogue reproduction with a crisp, center-focused authority, emanating from the speaker with just the right volume and intensity. Surrounds are never overly active, but they do work hard at creating seamless environments, much like those described above. Deception does not offer the most robust soundtrack, but it is certainly no slouch as it admirably moves the action forward.
