Review Date:

Foul Play's humor and horror balance well with strong performances, but the Blu-ray disappoints with subpar video and lacking features.

Paramount's Blu-ray release of 'Foul Play' is marred by heavy filtering, resulting in static grain and a lackluster 1080p transfer that struggles with detail and contrast, leaving fans disappointed by its dated, dull visuals.

Audio: 63

The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track offers a mostly engaging experience, with wide music and clear dialogue. Though primarily mono with some stereo expansion, it delivers good clarity and moderate low-end impact, making it an overall satisfying audio presentation.

Extra: 0

A bare-bones Blu-ray release of 'Foul Play' presents no extras or supplemental content, minimalistic menu options, and lacks a slipcover, leaving collectors with just the film itself.

Movie: 61

Foul Play balances humor and suspense effectively, showcasing a charming yet uneven mix of comedic set pieces and Hitchcockian elements. Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase shine amid a superb cast, though the film's pacing and inconsistent tonal shifts undermine an otherwise fun narrative.
