**SYNOPSIS**


On the last day of the school year, mild-mannered high school English teacher Andy Campbell (Day) is trying his best to keep it together amidst outrageous senior pranks, a dysfunctional administration and budget cuts that are putting his job on the line just as his wife is expecting their second baby.

But things go from bad to worse when Campbell crosses the school’s toughest and most feared teacher, Ron Strickland (Ice Cube), causing Strickland to be fired. To Campbell’s shock—not to mention utter terror—Strickland responds by challenging him to a fist fight after school. News of the fight spreads like wildfire as Campbell takes ever more desperate measures to avoid getting the crap beaten out of him. But if he actually shows up and throws down, it may end up being the very thing this school, and Andy Campbell, needed.

Why Him? 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Review

**SYNOPSIS**


Bryan Cranston and James Franco fight the ultimate battle of wits and wills in this outrageous, no-holds-barred comedy from filmmaker John Hamburg (I Love you Man, Along Came Polly, Meet the Parents, and Zoolander). Ned (Bryan Cranston), an overprotective but loving dad, and his family visit his daughter at college, where he meets his biggest nightmare: her well-meaning but socially awkward Silicon Valley billionaire boyfriend, Laird (James Franco). A rivalry develops, and Ned’s panic level goes through the roof when he finds himself lost in this glamorous high-tech world and learns that Laird is about to pop the question.








**MOVIE REVIEW**


The marketing for Why Him? used a lot of the major funny moments but thankfully not all of them, which lead to this being a better comedy than anticipated. Bryan Cranston and James Franco have great comedic timing together. The rest of the cast puts on a good show. This was a pleasant surprise that is worth picking up. 8.5/10


**VIDEO QUALITY**


Why Him? arrives on 4K UHD Blu-ray with a 2160p transfer in the aspect ratio of 1.85:1 - The standard Blu-ray provides a very pleasing palette and crisp details. The 4K boost and HDR lends itself to the bold primaries of this Christmas time set movie. Fine details in clothing textures, pores and lines in actor's faces and even the tattoos on Laird are sharp. Black levels were solid. I usually wouldn't think of a comedy for 4K but this looks really good. 9/10


**AUDIO QUALITY**


Audio is provided by a DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 track. - The funny dialogue is crisp and clearly presented in the center channel. Surrounds are used well, especially in a club scene with music filling the room and crowd din perfectly balanced in the mix. The LFE channel gets a decent work out with some tight bass notes from legendary rock god Kiss and other music chosen for the film. A solid performer all around. 8.5/10
