The first part of this film brought back a lot of memories of my own time in the army in basic training. Of course, things always happen differently in different camps. But the gist of the training is there. And to see this 'coward' operate under these extreme conditions is something else. A great movie to be seen by all.
This controversial and hard-hitting drama has been given a lean but satisfying presentation on DVD. Mississippi Burning has been transferred to disc in letterboxed format, replicating the film's original 1.85:1 aspect ratio, and the image has also been enhanced for playback on widescreen televisions. The original English-language audio track has been presented in a Dolby Digital Surround mix; two alternate soundtracks are also included, a French version in Dolby Digital Surround and a Spanish track in Dolby Digital Mono. The film has been closed captioned in English, and also includes optional subtitles in Spanish and French. The disc also includes two notable bonus features: the film's original theatrical trailer and a commentary track in which director Alan Parker discusses the film.

Hard to believe this was happening 100 years after the Civil War. However, the war just freed the slaves; it did not make them human. Of course, perhaps the people who treated them that way, both before and after the war, weren't human. Sometimes it takes something not in the book to bring people to justice.

Did this really happen so early in our history as a nation? It's supposed to be based on history and, if it is, it's something you would never learn in school history class. It is really good, though A lot of unexpected scenes throughout and a multi-climax ending.

These are both great movies. As president, Harrison Ford makes sure he keeps control of Air Force One. And Clint Eastwood does an excellent job as a 'failed' secret service agent. There is plenty of action in both of these films.
This set compiles four westerns starring Clint Eastwood: A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and Hang 'em High.

Haven't watched these four movies yet, but I have seen them before. And they are great! I know there are only three in the series but the fourth one fits in just as well. For 'spaghetti westerns' they aren't too bad.
This set brings together the first four films in the comedic Police Academy series: Police Academy, Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment, Police Academy 3: Back In Training, and Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol.

Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd star in the comedy Spies Like Us. Warner has put forth an only halfhearted attempt at making sure this transfer looks as good as possible. The film is presented in a cropped 1.33:1 full-frame transfer with all the imperfections of a pan-and-scan feature: dirt, grain, and a softness in the image that is often intrusive. While some of the colors and black levels appear in decent shape, others are soft or display bleeding in the image. Overall this is a very lackluster transfer to what some consider a classic comedy from the 1980s. The soundtrack is presented in Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround and doesn't offer much in the way of fidelity or dynamic range. While the mix is clear of any excessive hiss or distortion, not a single directional effect is to be found on this audio track. No alternate subtitles or soundtracks are available on this disc. Sadly, fans are stuck with a completely bare-bones edition of this film -- not even a single theatrical trailer has been tacked onto this DVD.

Put Chevy Chase and Dan Akroyd together and you get a great team! It is full of comedy with suspense throughout. You never know what is going to happen next!

Stanley Kubrick's Vietnam war opus Full Metal Jacket is available as part of the Stanley Kubrick collection from Warner Bros. Featuring a digital master from restored elements and a soundtrack newly remastered in Dolby Digitial 5.1, this title looks and sounds great. The only qualm, and it is a rather major one, is the format of the film itself. It is unfortunately presented in full screen, not the original widescreen format many DVD lovers have become accustomed to. As for bonus materials, the title is on the skimpy side, offering only the original theatrical trailer, scene access, and language choices in English and French. Subtitles are also available in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese.

In basic training they tell it like it was! Having been in the army during this time, but never in Viet Nam, it brought back a lot of memories. Although a lot of this did not happen to be, similar things did and others happened in other companies. The Viet Nam action is truly great!

George C. Scott is able to capture Patton as everybody saw him. This includes the good as well as the bad. We should have more war-time generals like him.

Do you need a digital converter box with this antenna for an older flat screen tv?
