Blu-ray Review: Meeting Spencer - Page 2

The Blu-ray Disc

Presented in 1080p high definition in a 1.85:1 aspect ratio, Meeting Spencer looks OK in this transfer — probably about the best it could look, truthfully. Garish lighting doesn’t do the low-budget production any favors, and the resulting images here are surface-y, without any real sense of depth or texture. Low-light scenes often become clouded with digital noise. Colors seem reasonably accurate and the film is mostly sharp and clean, but this is hardly a visual wonder.

The Dolby Digital 5.1 mix is adequate, sprinkling in some light restaurant ambiance with the clearly registering voices in the front channel. The atrocious tinkling score is perfectly clean as well.

Just an image gallery and the theatrical trailer.

The Bottom Line

Fans of satire, showbiz inside baseball and Jeffrey Tambor will likely all be disappointed with Meeting Spencer.
