Billy Madison (1995)

It wouldn’t be a slapstick movie without a heading lady. Bridgette Wilson portrays Veronica, Billy’s third rank teacher. She rapidly turns from chilled to loving. Director Tamra Davis, who has worked in song videos, radio and drive-in theatre got her large break with this film. She went on to send "Half Baked," other impotent slapstick and Britney Spears’ "Crossroads."

"Billy Madison" comes to Blu-ray with the same high-definition give that was done is to HD DVD release. The result is a of fitting hi-def video material, but frequency tip notch. Based on the bill and the age of the film, it comes opposite actually easily on Blu-ray. Black levels are standards is to genre and age. They may could have been softened a bit, but as is, the height of the picture is on top of average. The liughtness of the movie is maybe a hold high, but difference waste potent. The colors are the many gratifying segment of the video transfer. There are no chroma or drain issues. The superfluity isexcellent, providing any stage with an enriching image. There is lots of movie sound present so it is actually clear that no sound shrinking has been performed. The movie sound is stable and adds good hardness to the image.

The audio high quality is typical of the genre. A slapstick of this arrange has paltry approximate usage. Generally, the surrounds enclose bled data or reverb. Still, atmosphere is decent. The song is the greatest segment of the audio follow and comes by with decent marks. The pop/rock songs don’t have actually as ample punch as we would have liked. The energetic operation is exceedingly limited. The LFE duct is virtually non-existent. Overall, this is a decent audio track, but far from demo worthy.

The special features on the Blu-ray front are all formerly expelled materials. The initial is a gathering of about 30 mins of deleted scenes. There are couple of mins of outtakes. Lastly there is an audio narration by executive Tamra Davis. All special features are in typical definition.

"Billy Madison" is humorous in parts, but fails as a cohesive film. The audio and video qualities are better than hi-def broadcasts, but don’t live up to a few of the better catalog titles on Blu-ray. Worth a rent.
