Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray
Paramount Pictures | 2009 | 150 mins | Rated PG-13 | Oct 20, 2009
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen(2009)Action | Adventure | Sci-Fi     The battle for Earth continues in this action-packed blockbuster from director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg. When college-bound Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformer robots, he must accept his destiny and join Optimus Prime and Bumblebee in their epic battle against the Decepticons, who have returned stronger than ever with a plan to destroy our world. For more details about Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen on Blu-ray, see the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray Review Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray, Video Quality  Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen transforms home theaters into the local multiplex with a dazzling 1080p, 2.39:1-framed transfer that perfectly reproduces a flawless and film-like image for home viewing. The video quality seems almost transparent to that found on the Blu-ray release of Transformers; flesh tones take on a decidedly red tint, but otherwise, there's nothing to complain about. Fine detail is exceptional, particularly when the camera slows down long enough to allow viewers to take it all in. Many such scenes occur in or around the Witwicky house or Sam's dorm room: small lines in leather furniture; scuffs and scratches in hardwood floors; the grass, shrubs, and flowers of Sam's father's prized landscaping; or creases in posters on the wall; all feature fabulous texture and crystal-clear clarity that allows viewers to absorb every square inch of information that zooms across the display. Even some of the darker locales -- the inside of an abandoned warehouse as seen in chapter nine, for instance -- reveal small dents, rust, grime, and other signs of desertion wonderfully. Even so, the Transformers themselves are the true stars of the show. Megatron's body appears appropriately beaten and rusted; Prime's windshield shows grime smeared across the glass; and each scrape, dent, and chip on Bumblebee's body is beautifully rendered and plainly visible, again though only when the camera slows down enough to catch a glimpse. Colors are rich and natural; bright green foliage, the red of a fire engine, Bumblee's yellow paint job, or any other number of hues are exceptionally translated to Blu-ray. Black levels are superb, and the Blu-ray retains a fine layer of film grain that completes a breathtaking visual experience. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Blu-ray, Audio Quality Does this section really require analysis? Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen's DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack is terrific, quite possibly the best currently available on Blu-ray. The studio logo sequence alone is of reference quality; the Paramount stars sweep through the soundstage from front to back with a digitized, robotic sound, accompanied by a nice low-end presence and fully-engaged rear-channel activity. Bass is positively tight and robust throughout; the entire theater shakes with every heavy robotic footstep, gunshot and explosion, and percussion beat of the score. Gunshots zip across the soundstage, explosions push objects from side to side through the listening area, and voices echo about a tomb in chapter 14, all to startlingly realistic effect. Distant explosions and sound effects, particularly in the film's Egyptian combat sequence in the final act, do a superb job of placing the listener in the midst of the desert and the action. What's so amazing about this soundtrack isn't just that it features room-shaking bass and fully-realized surround activity. Instead, it's the seamlessness of it, its ability to draw listeners in and create a virtual world of sound where the home theater transforms into a space hosting a running gun battle, a bustling college campus, a wooded area engulfed by the destructive power of stories-tall robots, or an Egyptian desert devastated by brutal warfare. The faultless dialogue reproduction seems a mere afterthought, but it's the final piece to a perfect soundtrack.
