Disaster Movie Blu-rayLionsgate Films | 2008 | 88 mins | Unrated | Jan 06, 2009
Disaster Movie(2008)Comedy ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In 'Disaster Movie', the filmmaking team behind the hits 'Scary Movie', 'Date Movie', 'Epic Movie' and 'Meet The Spartans' puts this time its unique, inimitable stamp on one of the biggest and most bloated movie genres of all time -- the disaster film. 'Disaster Movie' follows the comic misadventures of a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event -- asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works -- hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction. Taking aim at everything and everyone, from Indiana Jones and Iron Man to Amy Winehouse and 'High School Musical', 'Disaster Movie' lampoons the blockbuster movie, pop culture icons and public figures along the way as Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer satirize everything as only they can. For more details about Disaster Movie on Blu-ray, see the Disaster Movie Blu-ray Review Disaster Movie Blu-ray, Video QualityLionsgate's Blu-ray release of Disaster Movie features an above average video transfer, presented in 1080p and inside a 1.78:1 frame. The film begins somewhat questionably, with dull blacks and little fine detail. The early scenes tackling 10,000 B.C. are bright but slightly washed out and devoid of fine detail, though foreground detail, notably of actors, is acceptable. The transfer picks up considerably once it gets past this opening sequence. The level of fine detail increases noticeably; clothing, backgrounds, and various odds and ends scattered throughout the frame take on a strong, quality appearance. The image is generally sharp and clear, with little softness, minimal grain, and no print anomalies. Colors appear bold and lively, but never overblown. The transfer features an appreciable level of depth. Flesh tones hold steady and accurate throughout. Lionsgate has done well by this film, and they continue to release quality Blu-rays, even on lesser titles such as this one. Disaster Movie Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Disaster Movie explodes onto Blu-ray with a DTS-HD MA 7.1 lossless soundtrack. It's a shame that a perfectly good 7.1 channel soundtrack is wasted on this "disaster movie," because it's actually an above-average track. It feature thunderous bass and plenty of surround use. The Gladiator sequence packs a decent thud, as do various impacts throughout the film. Popular music thumps nicely in several scenes later on. A marching band performance (the High School Musical sequence) in chapter four is tough to watch but far from an objectionable listen, the pop track positively filling the soundstage with the song's beats. When the actual disaster gets underway, a meteor strike as heard in chapter five features a nice spread of sound through the speakers, flowing naturally around the room. Dialogue reproduction is also solid from start to finish. The track is never an embarrassment. Too bad the same cannot be said for the film it accompanies.
