Just Friends Blu-ray Review

Warner Archive Collection

Score: 72

from 4 reviewers

Review Date:

A belated Blu-ray release with updated features delivers this enjoyable, if dated, rom-com for loyal fans, despite its predictable, uneven execution.

Disc Release Date

DTS HD-MA

Video: 79

Just Friends arrives on Blu-ray with a 1080p 1.85:1 AVC transfer sourced from an older, unrestored master—offering solid detail, stable colors, and minimal compression issues, but some visible flecks and softness limit overall sharpness given its 35mm origins.

Audio: 64

The DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track delivers clear dialogue and crisp vocals, with occasional immersive effects and strong music integration, though surrounds are used sparingly; this competent mix aligns with genre expectations but offers no groundbreaking advances.

Extra: 78

While all extras from the 2006 DVD are included—spanning a lively but surface-level audio commentary, eleven behind-the-scenes featurettes with technical and production insights, deleted/alternate scenes with optional commentary, music videos, gag reel, and trailer—some manufacturing errors mean copies may only contain the trailer.

Movie: 62

Just Friends receives a welcome Blu-ray upgrade with intact bonus features after years in SD; though the film—a broad, slapstick mid-2000s rom-com with notable performances from Reynolds and Faris—shows its age in both humor and narrative predictability.
