The Good Doctor Blu-ray Review

Score: 46

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

The Good Doctor offers a thematically rich character study with intense moments, though it may be better suited for a rental due to limited replay value and sparse special features.

Video: 54

The Good Doctor's 1080p Blu-ray transfer, inherently softer and grainier due to its 16mm origins, maintains a deliberate gauzy, gritty aesthetic that forgoes modern digital crispness, resulting in a warm, active image free from noticeable DNR, edge enhancement, or artifacting, though detail and color are muted and less precise.

Audio: 49

The Good Doctor's Blu-ray arrives with a lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track, prioritizing clean, balanced dialogue and subtly effective ambient sounds, while Brian Byrne's emotive score fills the soundfield, though rear channel activity is minimal given the film's quiet, psychological tone.

Extra: 21

The Blu-ray extras for 'The Good Doctor' provide a standard behind-the-scenes look with two nearly identical featurettes combining cast interviews and movie clips, along with a promotional trailer—total viewing time of around 20 minutes.

Movie: 56

The Good Doctor presents Orlando Bloom in a compelling role as Dr. Martin Blake, whose obsession and loneliness drive him to unethical and increasingly sinister decisions. The film's tension is skillfully built by director Lance Daly, though the ending feels disjointed. Overall, a capable thriller with impressive performances, especially from Bloom.
