Malcolm D. Lee's romantic comedy The Best Man 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 DTS Surround. There are no subtitles on this release. Supplemental materials include production notes, a soundtrack presentation, cast and crew biographies, a theatrical trailer, a showcase of other titles from Universal, and a production featurette. This is a very solid disc with a good smattering of extras.

Fans of Spike Lee's feverish treatise on racial tension during one hot Brooklyn day can rejoice at the Criterion Collection DVD of Do the Right Thing. Presented in a glorious widescreen transfer and loaded with extras, this is as definitive a version of the film as one could ask for. The picture is presented in its original 1.85:1 aspect ratio and looks perfect. The sultry tones of a hot summer day are so perfectly captured, the screen almost seems to sizzle at points. The sound is Dolby Surround and is excellent as well. There is also a great commentary track by Lee, cinematographer Ernest Dickerson, actress Joie Lee (Spike's sister), and Wynn Thomas, the film's production designer. The commentary is very informative and offers good insights into the movie's production (for example: It was pouring rain during some of the shooting, so Dickerson had to come up with clever ways of filming to make it look like a scorching sunny day). The second disc is loaded to the gills. Lee provides an intro and closing to the disc, offering his thoughts on the film. Sandwiched in between is a behind-the-scenes look at the film, the Q&A from the Cannes Film Festival featuring members of the cast, a music video for Public Enemy's "Fight the Power" -- the film's theme song, and much, much more. For those who already bought the previous DVD edition of Do the Right Thing, it's well worth it to shell out again. The perfect picture and mountain of extras will make viewers feel like they're experiencing this movie for the first time.
