REVIEW: THE BIG YEAR
1/28/12
OVERVIEW:
Let the fowl play begin! Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment presents the story of a competitive trio who quickly turn a simple quest into the ultimate competition when THE BIG YEAR spreads its wings on Blu-ray and DVD January 31.
SYNOPSIS:
Steve Martin, Jack Black and Owen Wilson are at a crossroads:
one is experiencing a mid-life crisis; another, a late-life
crisis; and the third, a far from ordinary “no-life crisis.”
From David Frankel, the director of The Devil Wears Prada and
Marley & Me, comes a sophisticated comedy about three
friendly rivals who, tired of being ruled by obligations and
responsibilities, dedicate a year of their lives to following
their dreams. Their big year takes them on a cross-country
journey of wild and life-changing adventures.
Everyone is searching for
something – and Stu Preissler (Steve Martin), Brad Harris
(Jack Black) and Kenny Bostick (Owen Wilson) are determined to
not only find their “something,” but to be the very best at
it. Like this intrepid, continent-trotting trio, most of us
dream about being at the top – whether it be as the supreme
athlete, the best-selling author, or maybe the award-winning
artist. It can be anything, but ideally it’s something
you’re passionate about.
DVD: The film is
presented in widescreen in a 2.35:1 aspect ration
preserving its theatrical format. The picture is just
flawless. Not only the picture looks great in
this release, also the sound it is good, a 5.1 Dolby Digital
in English, Spanish and French 5.1 Dolby Sorround that provides a
good complement to the picture. It also includes
English, and Spanish
subtitles.
