Score: 56

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

Despite fleeting potential and a solid but understated AV presentation, Better Living Through Chemistry remains largely unremarkable and derivative.

Video: 65

The Blu-ray of Better Living Through Chemistry delivers a strong 1080p/AVC video transfer with natural colors, deep black levels, and good detail, despite minor ringing and lackluster contrast by design. Macroblocking and other artifacts are minimal, preserving the integrity of the encode.

Audio: 65

Better Living Through Chemistry's DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track delivers clean, clear dialogue with solid prioritization and dynamics, though it lacks punch and presence. Rear speakers and LFE channel perform adequately, but the overall sound design is unremarkable.

Extra: 36

The Blu-ray edition of Better Living Through Chemistry lacks any special features, providing no additional content for viewers seeking behind-the-scenes insights or supplementary materials.

Movie: 36

While 'Better Living Through Chemistry' boasts competent casting and a tantalizing premise, its reliance on tired clichés and lackluster script ultimately result in a painfully ordinary and forgettable dark comedy.
