Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling

 (2008)

Adventure | Comedy



What do you get when you mix a lawyer, a slacker and a British Guy with the great outdoors? The wettest, wildest, and most outrageous road trip since Lewis & Clark! As a last wish for a little old lady, Ben the lawyer (Oliver James), his best friend Zach (Kristopher Turner), and a wacky Brit, Nigel (Rik Young), team up to find her missing granddaughter. But there's one little problem...She's somewhere deep in the wilderness getting in touch with nature. See what happens when three guys without a plan, without a chance and without a clue fall out of the pan and into the fire! Let the adventure begin!

Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling ventures onto Blu-ray with a generally nice looking 1080p transfer, framed inside a 1.78:1 window. The image is clear and clean, with a colorful, natural palette. Grain can be seen here and there, though it is never intrusive and barely noticeable over the mostly bright, pleasing outdoor imagery. Detail is solid, though not always exceptional. There are many varied locations to be seen outside of the film's primary natural setting, particularly early on, including several locales in and around a high school and a small Oregon town, and each shares their own unique features with a better-than-expected amount of detail. Background images even remain fairly clear; in the small town as seen in chapter four, for example, signs in windows in the background can clearly be read. Detail in the woods, too, is nice; moss on trees, leaves, and various plants all appear fairly realistic. Flesh tones are never problematic, but black backgrounds often appear as a dark shade of gray. All in all, though, Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling looks good on Blu-ray, and this video presentation is the highlight of the disc.

  Array of 5


Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling floats onto Blu-ray with a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack that is as forgettable as the movie it accompanies. Front heavy and bland, the track is suitable for a goofy comedy, but not much more. The music emanates nicely across the front with a mostly warm, natural presence, with a bit of support from the subwoofer. Environmental ambience is handled by the front speakers; many of the scenes on the river feature a nice presence across the front, as the water seems to flow around, but the rear speakers are used sparingly, if at all, leaving the experience one-sided and not at all immersive. A few gunshots heard near the end of the movie, along with several crashes and thuds, sound good enough, but again, lacking that sense of real-time immersion thanks to a completely front-heavy presentation. Dialogue is presented with no problems. Without a Paddle: Nature's Calling sounds about as one might expect of a direct-to-video comedy.
