Analyze This demonstrated once again that Robert De Niro really can do comedy, pairing him with Billy Crystal to great effect in this amusing tale of a Mafia boss and his psychotherapist. Warner's disc is outstanding in every way, and will also go down as something of a landmark in DVD history as the vehicle for De Niro's first ever audio commentary. The film is presented in anamorphic widescreen format, and it's a beautiful transfer, with perfect depth and balance throughout. The great jazz numbers on the soundtrack, not forgetting Howard Shore's terrific score, benefit enormously from the Dolby Digital 5.1 audio track, which is simply flawless. The extra features on this disc include the original theatrical trailer and a very funny five-minute gag reel. But the real draw is the inclusion of two audio commentaries, one by director Harold Ramis and the other by Crystal and De Niro. The Ramis commentary is certainly the more informative from a technical standpoint, but Crystal and De Niro do provide some nice anecdotes. This is a great DVD with plenty to offer besides the feature, and it should delight fans of this engaging comedy.

"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.

Ice Cube stars in the comedy crime caper All About the Benjamins. Presented in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen, this transfer by New Line is technically near perfect. With a vast array of bright colors and dark black levels, this is an excellent reproduction of the film which boasts nary a hint of edge enhancement or grain. The soundtrack is presented in both Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround and DTS Surround, both in English. Like the video transfer, both soundtracks are rollicking, rumbling mixes that feature a plethora of directional effects and ambient noises. With full-throttle sounds coming from all directions, both of these tracks should please home theater owners alike! Also included on this disc is a Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo Soundtrack and English subtitles. Fans of All About the Benjamins will be pleased to see a few extra features included on this disc. Starting out the supplements is a commentary track by director Kevin Bray and producer Matt Alvarez. Sadly, this commentary track includes a fair amount of dead space and many bland stories about the production. Four separate featurettes are included ("Shot Callers: From Videos to Features," "Strictly Business: Making the Benjamins," "Miami Nice: Production Design," and "All About the Stunts"), each focusing on specific aspects of the production including the locations and sets, the special effects, and the cast and crew. Each of these are fairly short, though taken as a whole they provide the viewer with tons of production information and behind-the-scenes footage. Finally there is a single deleted scenes, a short gag reel of flubs and bloopers, a music video for the song "Told Y'all" by Trina, a theatrical trailer, DVD ROM content, and a theatrical press kit that includes production notes and cast and crew info

Steve Oedekerk's follow-up to the surprise smash Ace Ventura Pet Detective comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while Spanish and French soundtracks have been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. Subtitles are accessible in all three of those languages. Supplemental materials include production notes and theatrical trailers. This disc does a superb job of presenting the film.
