Serendipity(2001)
It's a bustling day in New York City, and amidst the usual mad rush, the paths of two strangers collide as they fall victim to a mutual, all-consuming attraction. Despite the fact that each is involved in another relationship, Jonathan and Sara bide their time, staying connected by wandering through Manhattan and talking until the wee hours, while never mentioning each other's names. But, when the night reaches an inevitable end, the two are forced to determine the next step. When the smitten Jonathan suggests an exchange of phone numbers, Sara has a different idea in mind that will allow fate to take control of the future. If they are meant to be together, she convinces him, the universe will reveal its telltale signs. At least that's the plan...

Like a lot of these recent Miramax catalog releases that Lionsgate is putting out on Blu-ray, Serendipity looks decently sharp and well detailed almost all of the time, though there are elements of slightly oversaturated color that tend to make things look slightly artificial at times, as well as a slightly waxy appearance at times that argues toward at least moderate DNR. Some of the location footage here looks astoundingly clear and beautifully three dimensional seeming, and fine detail in close-ups is very appealing and well defined. On the other hand, there are a couple of either stock shots or second unit shots, notably some establishing shots in San Francisco, that are fairly soft and even shoddy looking. There are some minor artifacting elements apparent in some of the skyline scenes, notably some shimmer on buildings as well as noticeable edge enhancement in several scenes, but these issues are fairly transitory and don't detract too much from the overall decency of this presentation. Serendipity Blu-ray, Audio QualitySerendipity's lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix benefits from the copious source cues that director Chelsom inserts into the proceedings, including everything from Shawn Colvin to Chelsom's own personal favorite (which he talks about at length in his commentary track) Nick Drake. These elements help to solidify the film's surround potential, though there are a number of excellently immersive sequences, including the opening segment in a busy Bloomingdale's, and later, albeit a bit more subtly, at the skating rink. Fidelity is excellent throughout the film and while this is obviously a dialogue driven, more often than not two person at a time, affair, there's a surprising amount of ambient environmental sounds that creep through the side and rear channels, a lot of it due to the Manhattan setting. While there's not an awful lot of low end in this mix, overall frequency ranges sound very strong and dynamic range is also nicely varied. Blu-ray bundles with Serendipity (1 bundle)
