Scrooged, Richard Donner's darkly comic retelling of A Christmas Carol, comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. 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 subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials are limited to a theatrical trailer. The sound and picture on this disc are excellent, but they are the only reason to see this Paramount release.

The war drama No Man Is an Island arrives on DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, but the strong picture quality of this transfer and the reasonable list price makes this disc worthwhile or genre enthusiasts.
this ones for the guy who's wife or girlfriend is always saying "Not another war movie". Its all about survival and how a island population helps keep this sailor from being capured by the japanese and at the same time makes some good friends along the way.

What's not so great: don't have an answer for this question.
