My girlfriend dragged me to this movie and I am sorry to say that I halfway enjoyed it. It wasn't anything special but it kept my interest.

Oliver Stone's bone-crunching football film comes to DVD with a vivid 2.35:1 widescreen anamorphic transfer. The soundtrack is in Dolby Digital 5.1. Subtitles are available in English and French. In addition to the usual theatrical trailer and bios on the cast and director, the disc includes the documentary "Full Contact: The Making of Any Given Sunday." Rapper and actor LL Cool J provides a music video for "Shut 'Em Down." There is also a handful of DVD-ROM features.

This movie shows a lot of behind the scenes of what happens in the NFL. It was a good one time watch.

The funniest man on television returns as season two of the wildly popular Chappelle's Show arrives on DVD courtesy of Comedy Central Home Video. All 13 episodes are presented in 1.33:1 full-frame as originally aired and offer audio rendered in English Dolby Digital Stereo. As with the release of Chappelle's Show: Season One, fans of the hit series are certain to find plenty to laugh about in the abundant extra features present on this release. Take a look at the creative process as star Chappelle and series co-creator Neal Brennan provide audio commentary before diving into over an hour of bloopers and deleted scenes, and if you haven't split your sides wide open from laughter at that point, check out a pair of unaired stories from series regular Charlie Murphy before hearing the complete story of the conflict that spawned one of comedy's most notorious catchphrases with the extended Rick James interview. Of course, everyone knows that Chappelle is at his best when up on-stage with a live audience, and with an extra standup act rounding out the bonus materials, this disc is sure to keep fans laughing until the eagerly awaited third season of Chappelle's Show.

The first few seasons were very good but then I think they started to slip. But this season was great.

This movie shows a part of the world that no one wants to see and they did a good job making a movie about it. The ending surprised me but was good.

Kenny Ortega directs Bette Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker in the supernatural comedy Hocus Pocus, which arrives on DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, making this a pedestrian release from Disney/Buena Vista that will appeal primarily to Midler enthusiasts.

The DVD for Mr. Deeds is typical fine fare from Columbia/TriStar, an early supporter of this digital format. The 1.85:1 anamorphic image is top notch, with rich warm colors and solid blacks throughout. Flesh tones are nicely recreated and overall detail is consistently strong. This is one of the earlier releases that also has a full-frame version. The 5.1 Dolby Digital soundtrack isn't quite as impressive, as there is little to no use of the surround fields to heighten the theatrical experience. The dialogue is clear and, for the comedy genre, that is all important. In a nice move, a number of decent supplements have also been added, including a spirited, screen-specific audio commentary with director Steven Brill and writer Tim Herlihy that runs the gamut from light technical talk to friendly banter. There are also three featurettes: "From Mandrake Falls to Manhattan," "Spare No Expense," and "Clothes Make the Man." The first, the longest at 18 minutes, is a general making-of documentary; the second is about the production design;and the third concerns costumes. Although they don't amount to a lot separately, they do give a certain amount of insight into the making of the film when viewed as a whole. Along with these are six deleted scenes that really don't amount to much and an outtake reel that is amusing, albeit very brief. In addition to a great music video for "Where Are You Going" from The Dave Matthews Band, there are theatrical trailers for this film, Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights, Master of Disguise, Men in Black II, and I Spy. Finally, a script-to-screen feature is available via DVD-ROM. This may not have been the hit that Adam Sandler and company had hoped for, but you wouldn't know it from this fine presentation.

Sandler gets a lot of money from his rich uncle but along the way he has a trusty side kick and a villian...just like an old movie. This is good movie!

Devil-may-care navy pilot Pete Mitchell (Tom Cruise) is sent to Miramar Naval Air Station for advanced training. Here he vies with Tom Kasansky (Val Kilmer) for the coveted "Top Gun" award. When not so occupied, Mitchell carries on a romance with civilian consultant Charlotte Blackwood (Kelly McGillis). Shaken up by the death of a friend, Mitchell loses the Top Gun honor to Kasansky. Worried that he may have lost his nerve, Mitchell is given a chance to redeem himself during a tense international crisis involving a crippled US vessel and a flock of predatory enemy planes. The story wasn't new in 1986, but Top Gun scored with audiences on the strength of its visuals, especially the vertigo-inducing aerial sequences. The film made more money than any other film in 1986 and even spawned a 1989 takeoff, Hot Shots. An Academy Award went to the Giogio Moroder-Tom Whitlock song "Take My Breath Away."

This is a must see for everyone. This movie shows you a part of the Navy that you usually don't get to see but in the end everyone works together for the greater good.

Jon Turteltaub's comic telling of the story behind the Jamaican bobsledding team, Cool Runnings comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. There are neither subtitles nor closed captions on this release. Supplemental materials include the theatrical trailer. This Disney/Buena Vista title does a fine job of presenting the film, but offers little else. Fans of the film will enjoy the disc, but there may not be enough here to interest others.

IS IT WORTH PAYING SOMEONE TO CALABRATE OR TWEEK THE SETTINGS ON MY SAMSUNG 52A650 LCD

Yes!! It is very much worth it. They make your tv look the very best that it can in your setting. I would recommend anyone doing this with a tv 42" or larger.
