Marriage and love get a wicked new twist in the comedy
Saving Silverman starring
Amanda Peet,
Jason Biggs,
Jack Black, and
Steve Zahn. Columbia has done a decent job on this title with a very nice 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer (with a full-frame 1.33:1 version on side B). Since =Saving Silverman is a fairly new title, it's no surprise that the image quality is well rendered and very pleasing to the eye. Colors are vibrant with flesh tones very solid. A small amount of edge enhancement can be spotted, though the minor amount makes it inconsequential. Audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 and is mostly utilized during the presence of background
Neil Diamond songs (of which there are many). With dialogue, music, and effects all mixed evenly, this is a nice if underwhelming audio track. Also included on this disc is a Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround track in English, as well as subtitles in English and French. =Saving Silverman's extra features include a humorous commentary track by director
Dennis Dugan, an outtakes reel, some thin production notes, filmographies, a link to the website, and theatrical trailers for
Saving Silverman,
Big Daddy,
Whipped,
Loser, and
The Cable Guy. Regardless of one's opinion of the movie, this disc is a solid edition by Columbia. ~ Patrick Naugle, All Movie Guide
