Run Fatboy Run(2008)Comedy | Romance | Sport     A charming but oblivious overweight guy leaves his fiancee on their wedding day only to discover years later that he really loves her.

For more details about Run Fatboy Run on Blu-ray, see the Run Fatboy Run Blu-ray Review Run Fatboy Run Blu-ray, Video Quality  Presented at a wide 2.40:1 ratio in VC-1, Run Fatboy Run averages about 30 Mbps during playback. New Line as been much maligned concerning their Blu-ray releases, notoriously plagued by too much digital noise reduction. Fortunately, Fatboy seems to have eluded the overzealous mouse cursors for the most part, as its transfer is quite admirable. Good contrast and clarity abound, with a nice level of film grain present throughout the picture. Textures of skin, clothes, and the brick and mortar of London streets display a good sharp relief in every setting. Although the film's color grading is a smidgen too warm (perhaps Schwimmer found the London setting a bit bleak in appearance without it), the hues are still rich and vivid, especially in garish settings such as the Ghoshdashtidar residence, rife with crimson and tangerine hues. Verdant park lawns and lively London streets are other highlights. Shadow detail is rich and deep, and no transfer artifacting is present. Overall, Run Fatboy Run's subject matter is not meant to be a feast for the eyes, but the Blu-ray does sport a robust image that does the film justice. Run Fatboy Run Blu-ray, Audio Quality  With a DTS-HD MA 7.1 lossless track as its sole offering, Run Fatboy Run sounds pretty darn good on Blu-ray, though one may wonder why such a mix is necessary in the first place. An eight channel lossless track for a romantic comedy? Especially when other films under Warner's watch, like Get Smart and Interview with the Vampire, are getting subpar Blu-ray releases with lossy six channel audio options. But I digress. Sampled on 5.1 system, Run Fatboy Run features well-balanced work with clear, unmuddled dialogue. The scoring is upbeat without ever feeling intrusive, and the music, particularly The Fratellis' "Chelsea Dagger," is a particularly fun and potent earworm. The front- heavy mix is spread in even measure through the three channels, while the rears pick up a good deal of ambiance, especially in crowd scenes of urban London, or during the marathon sequence. The LFE lends some weight to the proceedings, but overall Run Fatboy Run is a moderately mixed romantic comedy; it leaves one speculating whether such a decadent audio codec should have been utilized in the first place.
