The Heartbreak Kid Blu-ray
DreamWorks | 2007 | 115 mins | Rated R | Dec 16, 2008
The Heartbreak Kid(2007)Comedy | Romance     Ben Stiller stars as Eddie, the 40-year-old confirmed bachelor who finally says "I do" to the beautiful and sexy Lila (Malin Akerman). But during their honeymoon in Mexico, the woman of his dreams turns out to be a total nightmare, and the guy who could never pull the trigger realizes he's jumped the gun. Take home the Farrelly Brothers' hysterical twist on boy-meets-girl, The Heartbreak Kid, and prepare to have a blast! For more details about The Heartbreak Kid on Blu-ray, see The Heartbreak Kid Blu-ray Review Starring: Ben Stiller, Michelle Monaghan, Jerry Stiller, Malin Akerman, Rob Corddry Directors: Bobby Farrelly, Peter Farrelly The Heartbreak Kid Blu-ray, Video Quality  The Heartbreak Kid arrives on Blu-ray sporting a surprisingly exceptional 1080p transfer using the AVC Mpeg-4 compression codec in the film’s original aspect ratio of 2.35:1. The film, despite its lack of success at the box-office, has been given the royal treatment on Blu-ray and this outstanding transfer is vibrant while remaining very film-like. I was immediately impressed with the film’s bright color palette as well as the fine level of detail displayed on screen. The Heartbreak Kid benefits from top tier cinematography from Director of Photography Matthew Leonetti. He chose to film in bright, colorful surroundings that bring an excellent sense of depth to the image. Even the film’s nighttime scenes are wonderfully lit with an emphasis on washes of color that make up much of the background space in each shot. As is the case with any top tier Blu-ray transfer, The Heartbreak Kid is free from any distracting picture anomalies. It’s a very positive sign that Dreamworks has chosen to give a title that had not performed well for them at the box-office such a fine transfer. Highly recommended! The Heartbreak Kid Blu-ray, Audio Quality  Continuing to impress in the quality department, The Heartbreak Kid features a great Dolby TrueHD 5.1 soundtrack that eschews the front-loaded design of typical comedies. The Heartbreak Kid actually has quite a bit of surround activity present in this lively and well-recorded mix. Dialogue is perfectly presented without a hair of distortion or hiss while the film’s varied soundtrack is nicely positioned within the mix. There is a bit of slapstick present in the film that allows for more frequent use of surround and ambient effects and several sequences involving Eddie’s run-ins with the US border patrol often pump up the mix considerably with full-on action-style surround use. It all makes for an inspired and refreshing sound experience that delivers on a level infrequently encountered with comedies. Highly Recommended!
