White House Down Blu-ray Review

Score: 67

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

White House Down fails at delivering original action or engaging performances, but the Blu-ray's excellent video/audio and featurettes make it worth a rental.

Video: 75

White House Down's Blu-ray boasts a stellar transfer with crisp, colorful details, lifelike textures, rich black levels, and no perceptible noise, despite some darker and over-saturated tones compared to the theatrical version.

Audio: 75

White House Down's Blu-ray delivers a mesmerizing DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack, with precise musical notes, immersive ambient effects, and thunderous explosions. Dialogue remains crisp despite some overbearing action sounds, creating an engaging and dynamic auditory experience for audiophiles.

Extra: 56

The 'White House Down' Blu-ray extras comprise 65 minutes of brief featurettes on stunts, set design, and cast interactions but lack depth, with many pieces feeling like self-congratulatory fluff rather than substantial content.

Movie: 36

White House Down offers action-packed sequences and a high-profile cast, but its lack of originality, inconsistent tone, and subpar special effects result in a straightforward and ultimately disappointing experience that falls short of its potential. While it provides mindless entertainment, it pales in comparison to its competition.
