Review Date:

Despite fair video and audio, 'Four Christmases' Blu-ray is plagued by unfunny dialogue, contrived gags, and uninspiring special features, making it best avoided.

"Four Christmases" boasts a competent 1080p VC-1 transfer showcasing vibrant holiday hues and well-resolved blacks, although occasional artificial sharpening and noise reduction detract slightly. The Dolby TrueHD mix provides clear, full-bodied dialogue with a prominent soundstage. The overall presentation is solid and enjoyable.

Audio: 51

Four Christmases’ Dolby TrueHD 5.1 surround track delivers a front-heavy mix with crisp, clear dialogue and occasional engaging surround activity, such as in the inflatable jumpy house scene. While predominantly flat with limited dynamic range, the track is technically sound and enhances key scenes effectively.

Extra: 31

Four Christmases bumbles onto Blu-ray with a disappointing supplemental package, revealing little and exploring even less, despite high-definition presentation and mildly amusing gag reel and deleted scenes. Featurettes such as 'Holiday Moments' and 'Behind the Madness' fail to add value.

Movie: 30

Four Christmases features an impressive cast including Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon but is plagued by a disjointed script and unlikable characters, resulting in an unsatisfying and mean-spirited holiday comedy. The Blu-ray includes a Digital Copy on a 25GB, Region A locked disc, with auto-play enabled.
