![]() PG13,1hr 30min Genre: Released: October 3, 2008 Director: Distributor: Sony Pictures/Screen Gems Starring: DVD Review by Sean Axmaker, Special to MSN Movies A cute title, a cute couple, and a playful, underplayed chemistry between
young stars Michael Cera and Kat Dennings. So why isn't there any discernable
chemical reaction in this modern teen romance set over a long night careening
around the streets of New York? There's a bouncy soundtrack and fun culture of
struggling bands and secret shows, but the story never really seems to catch.
There are two commentary tracks (one with Cera, Dennings and Ari Graynor joking
around with director Peter Sollett, and one with Sollett comparing notes with
the book's authors and the screenwriter), plus a handful of deleted scenes and
outtakes, a lighthearted collection of featurettes (see Dennings reenact the
film with cut-out puppets in five minutes), and a digital copy of the film for
portable media players. Exclusive to the Blu-ray edition is Telestrator
commentary (Sollett and the stars scribble across the screen to no discernable
purpose) and interactive functions for BD Live machines. | ||
