MGM brings Mel Brooks' science fiction farce Spaceballs to DVD with both widescreen and standard versions on the same disc, and 5.1 Surround Sound, though the movie's lackluster production values make it difficult to discern the quality of the transfer. Still, for fans of actor/writer/director Brooks, the full-length commentary (originally recorded for the laserdisc release) includes his trademark quips and a genuine appreciation of the actors and other collaborators on the film. He has an amazing memory for the details of their careers before and after working with him. It's also refreshing for a director to mock his own work, as well as laugh at the comic bits he has undoubtedly seen dozens of times. In a brief behind-the-scenes featurette, cast members John Candy, Rick Moranis, and others talk about the pleasure of working with Brooks and share stories of on-set goofiness. Basically, for fans of Brooks' unique comic sensibilities, the DVD makes a worthwhile evening's entertainment.

Weirdness abounds in the horror thriller Donnie Darko. Fox has done a great job on this 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer. This is a very clear image that sports dark black levels and evenly saturated colors. Only a small amount of edge enhancement is spotted in a few scenes, though it won't interfere with the viewing. The audio is presented in DTS Surround in English, Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround in English, and French. Both the DTS and Dolby 5.1 soundtracks are very full and bombastic. Both soundtracks utilize rear and front speakers to maximum effect. Also included on this disc are subtitles in English. Donnie Darko includes a wide array of extra features, starting with two commentary tracks, the first by director Richard Kelly and actor Jake Gyllenhaal, and the second with multiple cast and crew members. Both of these tracks are very informative and interesting. "The Philosophy of Time Travel" is page-by-page look at the book prominently displayed in the film. The "Art Gallery" features production photos from the film, as well as conceptual art and promotional materials used for the marketing campaign. "Cunning Visions" is a collection of infomercials from the movie by Patrick Swayze's film character. An optional infomercial is available with commentary by Fabian Van Patton and Linda Connie. Twenty deleted scenes feature optional commentary with the director. Some of these are interesting, while others had validity for being cut. Rounding off the extra features are some TV spots and theatrical trailers, a music video for the song by Gary Jules, and some information on the cast and crew.

Of the two versions of American Pie on DVD, both include the same Collector's Edition features but the sex gags are a little more graphic in the unrated version. Unfortunately, Universal did not include them as deleted scenes on the R-rated version. The digital transfer looks great, if not a little dark at times, and is presented in anamorphic 1.85:1 widescreen. The Dolby 5.1 Surround is equally good, but most contemporary films transferred straight to digital do not have audio and video problems. The commentary track is probably the best feature on the disc, providing continually humorous insight from director Paul Weitz, producer Chris Weitz, writer Adam Hertz, and actors Eddie Kaye Thomas (Finch), Jason Biggs (Jim), and Seann William Scott (Stifler). The "Spotlight on Location" segment is barely ten minutes long and only offers some surface details about the production. As well, the outtakes really aren't all that funny, although they do include the alternate version of the infamous pie scene. Soundtrack highlights, a trailer, and a "classic quotes" section that jumps to certain lines in the movie are also included. While many DVDs pack a few more worthwhile extras onto the DVD-ROM portion of the disc, here the content consists only of more text about the film. Regardless of which version viewers want, American Pie is a good DVD, but it is not without its missed opportunities.

David M. Evans family-oriented comedy The Sandlot comes to DVD with pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1 and is preferable to the standard full-frame transfer. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround, while a French soundtrack has also been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a making-of featurette, television promotional spots, and a theatrical trailer. This is a solid release from 20th Century Fox.

"Over ten hours of entertainment" the box copy exclaims, and that may be true -- if you are a very, very slow reader. Actually, you can save yourself the trouble of watching either American Pie or American Pie 2 by clicking into the "Your Favorite Piece of Pie Chapter" in the Bonus section of American Pie 2; it's a list of the ten best scenes, in their entireties, from both movies, thereby dispensing with the plots and secondary characters, which were theatrical padding and afterthoughts in the first place. There's also a "classic quotes" chapter, which includes the clip from the film of the character saying the memorable line. The bonuses on the sequel's disc include a gag reel of the actors cutting up on the set, a "making of" documentary showing the actors acting up on the set, outtakes of the actors...( you get the idea). No doubt, these kids had a ball making the movie; with all the cutting up, it's a wonder the movie got made at all. There also are deleted scenes (most of them are pointless), casting tapes of the principal actors from the original movie (shot on what looks like rather low-end video), commentaries, DVD-ROM features, the "Be Like That" music video featuring 3 Doors Down (along with musical highlights from the film), and text bios of the filmmakers and actors (read them slowly and you just might get that promised ten hours). The special features are unrated, so be prepared for a significant amount of profanity from those actors cutting up on the set.

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.
