Knocked Up Blu-rayUniversal Studios | 2007 | 133 mins | Unrated | Sep 30, 2008
Knocked Up(2007)Comedy | Drama | Romance ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Allison Scott (Katherine Heigl) is an up-and-coming entertainment journalist whose 24-year-old life is on the fast track. But it gets seriously derailed when a drunken one-nighter with slacker Ben Stone (Seth Rogen) results in an unwanted pregnancy. Faced with the prospect of going it alone or getting to know the baby's father, Allison decides to give the lovable doof a chance. An overgrown kid who has no desire to settle down, Ben learns that he has a big decision to make with his kid's mom-to-be: will he hit the road or stay in the picture? Courting a woman you've just Knocked Up, however, proves to be a little difficult when the two try their hands at dating. As they discover more about one another, it becomes painfully obvious that they're not the soul mates they'd hoped they might be. With Allison's harried sister Debbie (Leslie Mann) and hen-pecked brother-in-law Pete (Paul Rudd) the only parenting role models the young lovers have, things get even more confusing. Should they raise the baby together? What makes a happy lifetime partnership after all? A couple of drinks and one wild night later, they've got nine confusing months to figure it out... For more details about Knocked Up on Blu-ray, see the Knocked Up Blu-ray Review Starring: Seth Rogen, Katherine Heigl, Paul Rudd, Leslie Mann, Jay Baruchel Director: Judd Apatow Knocked Up Blu-ray, Video Quality![]() Knocked Up comes to bluray in a one hundred and thirty three minute unrated and unprotected cut, on a BD-50 dual layer disc. It is presented in 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 encode at a 1:85:1 aspect ratio, and you have the ability to toggle between an extended and theatrical cuts of the film. This is a re-encode of the same print master used for the HD DVD release. The transfer is not bad looking, but there are some minor issues we will get to later. The print master of Knocked Up is squeaky clean, with not so much as a blemish to be found. Blacks are solid and stable, but contrast is a bit on the hot side but not intensely so. Colors are a bit skewed towards a yellowing, which in my opinion makes flesh tones look sickly and unnatural. When you combine the yellow tilt with the hot contrast, highlights look flat, lack detail and depth as well. Shadow detail is very good, with fine detail visibly present. There were no video artifacts to be found, but the transfer still is not top notch, and is not representative of what Universal has been turning out with their releases. It’s a hit, but truly not a home run. Knocked Up Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Knocked Up sports a 5.1 24/48 kHz Dts MA lossless soundtrack along with a French and Spanish DTS core tracks at 1.5mbps. As typical for a romantic comedy the soundtrack is very front loaded with just an occasional use of the surrounds and LFE. The club scenes are the only time when things get active in all channels. Dialog is always clean, clear and undistorted. When the music kicks in, the rears and the LFE contribute nicely to the overall atmosphere. You never have to struggle to hear any part of this soundtrack. When compared to the HD DVD version, the bluray version has just the slightest improvement in background noise, and a slightly tighter LFE. This soundtrack serves this film very well, and out of all of the romantic comedies I have seen (with the exception of several Tyler Perry movies) this soundtrack is one of the better sounding ones out there.
