DVD Review
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist is a comedy about two people thrust together for one hilarious, sleepless night of adventure in a world of mix tapes, late-night living, and, live, loud music. Nick (Michael Cera) frequents New York's indie rock scene nursing a broken heart and a vague ability to play the bass. Norah (Kat Dennings) is questioning pretty much all of her assumptions about the world. Though they have nothing in common except for their taste in music, their chance encounter leads to an all-night quest to find a legendary band's secret show and ends up becoming the first date in a romance that could change both their lives.

another teen movie... - Rating: 2/5
Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist is a bland movie based on a young adult novel. Michael Cera is amusing but the film is full of cliches, bad acting and silly dialogue. Even the soundtrack is annoying.
Fun Movie!!! - Rating: 5/5

A superb film in blu ray glory - Rating: 5/5
NICK AND NORAH'S INFINITE PLAYLIST is a treat for film lovers of all ages. It has gotten mixed reviews from the critics and I really don't understand it. I loved this film. It is a warm, tender, very funny and endearing story of one night in the life of a group of teenagers. Led by Michael Cera and Kat Dennings this superb cast does the awesome task of making these teen characters believable, pertinent to the current times and relatable to people of all ages. I am a 46 year old man and related as if I was one of them.
The basic beginning plot has Michael Cera still pining over his old girlfriend who dumped him. He keeps making her burned cds which she tosses and come into the hands of Norah aka Kat Dennings. Thus Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. Nick is in a band with his best friends and all the guys are again believable and quite funny. Norah's best friend is the greatest comedy lift. The film is a teen film in the age of SUPERBAD and other such films. It even has Michael Cera who is in SUPERBAD as well as JUNO. Here his witty style of acting is intact but his character is also very different from his other films. He seems to reach a deeper level of vulnerability. Bottom line, this one night journey is one you will be very happy you took. This film is a love story, a friendship story and a general feel good film for the ages. You will care about these people and want to revisit them again. This film is a definite one to own.
And the blu ray version takes full advantage of all blu ray has to offer. I had just seen it in HD on cable and then purchased it in bluy ray. I watched it soon after and the oomph both the video and audio got from the transfer was exsquisite. The 1080p video transfer is crisp, colors are vibrant and the night scenes are striking. The true hd 5.1 audio provides the best accompanying soundtrack. Dialogue is strong and music is well utilized. The full presentation of this film in blu ray is of the highest standard.
Highly recommend. Put this film in, sit back and be prepared to be truly entertained as you experience a touching slice of life.
