Review: Snoopy, Come Home BD + Screen Caps

Like A Boy Named Charlie Brown, Snoopy Come Home is a Blu-ray release for big-time fans only. Both of these have been previously released on DVD already so what you’re buying here are upgraded picture and audio, but the lack of features makes me hesitate to give it a recommendation.

THE MOVIE

When America’s most beloved beagle suddenly goes missing, the whole PEANUTS gang bands together to find him in this full-length feature, remastered in high-definition now on Blu-ray, from cartoonist Charles M. Schulz and the Academy Award winning musical team of Richard and Robert Sherman. Snoopy and Woodstock (in his big-screen debut) head for the highways in search of their true place in the world and discover that there really is no place like home.

 

SPECIAL FEATURES – 0/5

This release comes with an embossed slip cover. Unfortunately, no features were included.

 

VIDEO – 4.0/5

As with A Boy Named Charlie Brown, this remastered release offers some nice and bright colors bringing to life this special that’s going on nearly 45 years long. The whites are fairly even and no major instances of dust marks though I did notice a spec here and there, however nothing distracting.

AUDIO – 4.0/5

We get the choice of a 5.1 and 2.0 DTS-HD Master Audio tracks, either option is fine with the former giving off a smidge more depth with clear dialogue levels while the music makes up the bulk of the sound resonating from the front and rear channels. It’s nothing extraordinary yet doubtful it’s ever sounded better.

 

OVERALL – 3.0/5

Overall, like A Boy Named Charlie Brown, Snoopy Come Home is a Blu-ray release for big-time fans only. Both of these have been previously released on DVD already so what you’re buying here are upgraded picture and audio, but the lack of features makes me hesitate to give it a recommendation unless it’s at a reasonable price.
