London, 1977. Enn (ALEX SHARP) is a shy suburban teenager who sneaks out to after-hours punk parties.

Enn falls for beautiful alien Zan (ELLE FANNING) \u2014 and into a delirious adventure that will test the limits of their love.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

VIDEO \u2013 4.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The film arrives on Blu-ray presented in its original 1.85 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer and for the most part, does look quite good with sharp detail while colors are more aligned to the 1970s era motifs.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

AUDIO \u2013 4.25\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

The punk music really takes advantage of the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track while also outputting crisp and clear dialogue levels with the rears are relegated for, outside of the music, ambient noises which there was plenty of.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

OVERALL \u2013 3.0\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Overall, How to Talk to Girls at Parties<\/em><\/strong> certainly does not give away what the movie is about by its title. It\u2019s a combination of the 1970s British punk scene and science fiction. It is a charming flick thanks to Elle Fanning and Alex Sharp who share some cute chemistry and Nicole Kidman is fun, in an outlandish way. The Blu-ray release offers good video and audio transfers while features were okay, though highlighted with the rare actor commentary.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
