Kevin Smith's homage to teen sex romps of the 1980s, Mallrats is given collector's edition treatment by Universal. The widescreen anamorphic 1.85:1 transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.0, while a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. There are no subtitles on this disc. The bountiful supplemental features include a commentary track with the director, stars Ben Affleck, Jason Mewes, and Jason Lee, as well as the producers of the film. Anyone who has had the pleasure of listening to Smith's commentaries for Clerks or Chasing Amy already knows that he provides commentary tracks as wild and funny as his films. Over one hour of deleted scenes can be accessed, as well as live footage from the commentary recoding session, a production photo gallery, a theatrical trailer, a featurette, and an advertisement for the soundtrack. Though it is Smith's least successful film, Mallrats is a fantastic DVD.

Kevin Smith does it again

Say, wouldn't you like a chocolate pretzel?
Best scene in the entire movie would be the game show featuring Gil Hicks and the story about cousin Walter on the airplane.

Loose sequel to Forgetting Sarah Marshall
on April 14, 2013

Using the same character played by Russell Brand, this is almost a continuation. Johan Hill has a different character though.
P. Diddy's scenes are a bit reminiscing of that of Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder.

Thought it would be worse

When I heard they remade "Arthur", I originally thought it was an insult to Dudley Moore. I finally saw the movie and believe it doesn't insult him as much. The acting at times was just okay compared to the original but, it does have it's moments.
One of the few movies I actually could stand Russell Brand.

For a non-anamorphic picture (widescreen letterbox, 1.85:1 aspect ratio), the picture quality of Office Space is fairly sharp and smooth with rather detailed-looking events, faces, and scenes. Audio options on this single-layered DVD include English Dolby Digital 5.1, English Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, and French Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, with optional subtitles available in English and Spanish. Closed-captioning is also included. Bonus or special features are not, however, except for the original theatrical trailers. The sound quality comes through as mono sounding and front-directed, with overly loud dialogue in places throughout the film; coloring is a bit splotchy and inconsistent in some scenes.

Jennifer Aniston steals the show in this movie. Her character is crude but gets to the point.
Good plot

Lots of great extras

This deluxe set is amazing. The extras are truly incredible.
The script, the post cards, the extra bonus disc, the mini posters.
The Beatles are classic and this deluxe set is legendary.

Billy Crystal is back
on April 14, 2013
Posted by: metsb

Somewhat predictable plot.
Typical Bette Midler singing performance.
Old school vs new school family comedy. It does have it's moments. Best scene would have to be when Billy Crystal's character sings "Come on Mr. Doody".

A funny political company

Will Ferrell does it again.
This political comedy has it's moments but overall funny. I remember watching it when it first came out in theaters and it was good.
I had to purchase the DVD.

Good ensemble cast

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good ensemble cast and an average plot. The star power of the cast makes the plot a little more bearable.
I hope the sequel is a bit better.

One of the weaker Adam Sandler films
on April 14, 2013
Posted by: metsb
from NJ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I enjoy Adam Sandler films every now and then but, this has got to be one of the weaker films he has put.
I thought That's My Boy was a better film and the critics hated that one big time.
This movie does have some memorable moments and Al Pacino's scenes are probably the best part of this movie.
Why'd he sign on to do this in the first place???
