Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow are absolutely delightful as the film s dense, but vivacious heroines and they look incredible to boot. Additionally, Janeane Garofalo is perfectly cast as the actual high school success story, with a chip on her shoulder. Color reproduction on this DVD is excellent. Every highly saturated hue is perfectly rendered without a trace of chroma noise or bleeding. Flesh tones are more appealing than they appear in real life.
Blacks are of the midnight variety and the image has incredibly smooth contrast.
Digital compression artifacts remained in check throughout the presentation. The Dolby Digital 5.1 channel soundtrack has a terrific mix that highlights the film s killer music. Since this is a comedy, directional effects are used rather sparingly, but they make use of all the discrete channels when required. The surrounds are primarily utilized for ambient sounds and musical fill, however one will find occasional localized effects in the rears. Dialogue reproduction is clean, precise and never drowned out by the other components of the mix.
