Mad Money Blu-ray
Starz / Anchor Bay | 2008 | 104 mins | Rated PG-13 | Nov 18, 2008
Mad Money(2008)Comedy | Crime | Romance     Academy Award winner Diane Keaton, Academy Award nominee Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes are all in for the crime of their lives! Deep inside the most secure bank in America, three desperate women from very different worlds cook up the most unlikely heist of the century: Smuggle out millions of dollars in worn-out currency headed for a Federal Reserve shredder every day. Taking the cash is going to be easy...but getting away with it will be insane! Ted Danson, Christopher McDonald (Happy Gilmore), Roger Cross (24) and Stephen Root (Office Space) co-star in this wild comedy caper from the creator of Thelma & Louise about chasing your dreams, beating the system and paying the price for Mad Money! For more details about Mad Money on Blu-ray, see the Mad Money Blu-ray Review Starring: Diane Keaton, Queen Latifah, Katie Holmes, Ted Danson, Stephen Root Director: Callie Khouri Mad Money Blu-ray, Video Quality  Mad Money features a fair if not somewhat pedestrian 1080p, 2.39:1-framed transfer. Neither the sharpest nor the most highly detailed transfer on the market, it nevertheless offers a suitably good, eye-pleasing 104 minutes of high definition imagery. There's something of an aura to the movie; many scenes seems aglow, a bit overly bright, and such scenes tend to slightly wash out color and detail. As noted earlier, Mad Money features a terribly bland visual scheme with plenty of monochromatic clothes and backgrounds; the locations are dull and visually unappealing to begin with, and the transfer reflects this monotony. It renders the fine details as well as can be expected, but there's not a single frame of the movie that even threatens to jump off the screen with either eye-popping color or amazing detail and texture. Colors are reproduced with a mostly natural appearance that preserves the overall integrity of the image. Boasting adequate black levels and skin tones and a layer of film grain, Mad Money makes for something of an average, visually uninteresting, but not overtly problematic 1080p Blu-ray transfer. Mad Money Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Mad Money delivers a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack that's not exactly going to shred up the speakers. A bland and wholly unappealing audio presentation, Mad Money delivers the basics but goes no further than required of it to get the job done. A dialogue-heavy Comedy/Heist/Drama, the spoken word is consistently delivered with the crispness and clarity expected of a good lossless soundtrack. The film does feature plenty of music, but there's nothing especially enticing about its presentation. Adequately clear, it plays across the front with no discernible issues but without much of an attention-grabbing presentation. The track delivers a small amount of bass in a few shots, and it features a subtle background ambience in a few bar and restaurant scenes, but generally, the rear speakers are afforded an off-day with this one. There's nothing inherently wrong with Mad Money's soundtrack; it's just bland and boring by design.
