Score: 56

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

Fanboys has heart and nostalgia appeal, but suffers from inconsistent writing and tone.

Video: 49

The Blu-ray presentation of Fanboys features a flat visual aesthetic with consistent yet noticeably soft 1080p resolution; colors are accurate but contrast and brightness are subdued, yielding a lackluster and occasionally murky image overall.

Audio: 57

Fanboys on Blu-ray from The Weinstein Company boasts a faithful high-definition video and a competent DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix, enriched by authentic Star Wars sound effects and clear dialogue. Although surround activity is minimal, key scenes offer immersive sound moments, making it enjoyable for fans and casual viewers alike.

Extra: 61

Fanboys' Blu-ray Extras provide a plethora of SD supplements, from an enthusiastic but information-light commentary, through featurettes like 'Fanboys Goes Global' and 'Star Wars Parallel’, to deleted scenes, digital comic book, and gallery, offering a comprehensive yet repetitive insight into the cult hit.

Movie: 66

Fanboys offers a promising setup with both loony and touching elements, but its juvenile humor often undermines character development, resulting in an uneven tone despite some laugh-out-loud moments and well-performed cameos from the likes of Seth Rogen and Carrie Fisher.
