from 3 reviewers

Review Date:

Planes offers superb Blu-ray 3D visuals and audio, ideal for kids, but its uninspired storyline and modest supplements may disappoint discerning viewers.

Video: 74

Disney's "Planes" delivers an impressive high-definition Blu-ray presentation, with rich colors, deep contrast, and fine details in both 2D and 3D. The 1080p/MVC-encoded 3D presentation stands out with remarkable depth and dimensionality, although minor banding and occasional softness are noted. Overall, an engaging visual experience.

Audio: 72

Disney's DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 surround mix for Planes is exceptionally well-balanced, featuring clear dialogue, immersive directional and ambient effects, and dynamic bass response. The front soundstage is expansive with precise vocals, while flying sequences exhibit superb realism and panning.

Extra: 50

The Blu-ray extras for "Planes" offer an insightful and detailed look into the film's development, with standout features including the "Klay's Flight Plan" behind-the-scenes documentary, character bios in "Meet the Racers," educational segment "Top 10 Fliers," and deleted scenes, all in high-definition.

Movie: 43

Disney's *Planes* offers a vibrant AV presentation and an entertaining experience for young viewers, but falls short with its predictable plot, derivative storytelling, and clichéd characters. While the Blu-ray includes engaging behind-the-scenes features, the film itself struggles to soar beyond its direct-to-video roots.
