I Love You, Man

 (2009)

Comedy | Romance



Peter Klaven is a successful real estate agent who, upon getting engaged to the woman of his dreams, Zooey, discovers, to his dismay and chagrin, that he has no male friend close enough to serve as his Best Man. Peter immediately sets out to rectify the situation, embarking on a series of bizarre and awkward "man-dates," before meeting Sydney Fife, a charming, opinionated man with whom he instantly bonds. But the closer the two men get, the more Peter's relationship with Zooey suffers, ultimately forcing him to choose between his fiancee and his new found "bro," in a story that comically explores what it truly means to be a "friend."

I Love You, Man Blu-ray, Video Quality

 


I Love You, Man meets up on Blu-ray with a well-done 1080p, 1.78:1-framed transfer. The color palette serves up a fine array of hues, each looking rather good, though the film takes on an overall warm, reddish-orange tint that carries over to flesh tones. The level of fine detail to be found throughout appears as above-average; the many office supplies and furnishings found in Paul's workplace, or the many knickknacks scattered about Sydney's man cave, for instance, appear with a suitably high level of clarity and texture that tend to bring most every scene to life. Clothing, too, always appears well-rendered in most every scene. The image remains consistently sharp with no one scene appearing abundantly soft, and a fair sense of depth is present throughout. Grain isn't at all intrusive, and the image as a whole takes on a rather nice film-like appearance. I Love You, Man certainly doesn't make for the best transfer ever to grace Blu-ray, but it looks rather good throughout.

I Love You, Man Blu-ray, Audio Quality

 


I Love You, Man hangs out on Blu-ray with a pedestrian but effective Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. This soundtrack offers up the quintessential Comedy mix, delivering a predominantly front-heavy sound field that sets the stage in every scene but never really comes to life anymore than is required of it. The track's pair of primary sounds -- dialogue and music -- are both delivered with a suitably clear and lifelike presentation. What ambience there is to be found throughout merely plays faintly across the front with little-to-no back channel support. A scene on a crowded Muscle Beach boardwalk offers but a whisper of environmental activity off to the sides in support of the centrally-focused dialogue, while the boys' "jam sessions" in Sydney's man cave or the Rush concert scene doesn't deliver anything close to a powerful, full-fledged recreation of the events. I Love You, Man sounds perfectly fine for what it is; just don't expect anything past the perfectly clear basics.
