A pair of hapless garbage collectors gets tied up in a lethal political conspiracy in this hilarious MGM/UA release. Viewable in either 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen or 1.33:1 full frame, this disc also offers a closed captioned English Dolby Digital Surround soundtrack. Optional subtitles are offered in English, Spanish and French, with extra features including a theatrical trailer.

One of the 1980s' classic cult comedies comes to DVD in a surprisingly sparse package. So sparse, in fact, that the only bonus feature present is a theatrical trailer. Visually the disc fares little better -- the picture is a little better than a new VHS copy and appears to have been prepared hastily at best. At least it's not pan and scan -- the original theatrical ratio of 1.85:1 has been maintained. The disc's soundtrack is presented in a lackluster Dolby Pro-logic mix which has a mediocre bass presence but makes almost no use of the surround speakers. Overall, this disc reeks of being a victim of hasty production. The film was never a wild success but subsequent word of mouth has garnered it a cult following over the years, and it's a pity that more effort didn't go into the disc's production.

Brett Leonard's cyberspace themed thriller Virtuosity comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. 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. There are no subtitles, but the English soundtracks are closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include the trailer. This is a fine release from Paramount that boasts excellent sound and picture quality.

A handful of kids are accidentally sent into orbit in this comedy drama, which has been given a simple presentation for its release on DVD. SpaceCamp has been given a letterboxed transfer to disc in the widescreen aspect ratio of 1.85:1, which has also been enhanced for anamorphic playback on 16 x 9 monitors. The audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround; the dialogue is in English, with optional subtitles in English, Spanish, and French. No bonus materials have been included for this release.

Christian Slater stars in this action comedy, which gets a solid release on DVD. Kuffs has been given a widescreen transfer to DVD, letterboxed on conventional televisions and enhanced for 16 x 9 playback on widescreen monitors. The original English-language audio and an alternate soundtrack dubbed in French have both been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround, while a third track, in Spanish, is in Dolby Digital Mono. Optional subtitles in Spanish and French are also available. No bonus material has been included.

Robert Zemeckis' comedy Used Cars comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English, French, and Portuguese soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. Subtitles are accessible in all three of those languages as well as Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Thai. Supplemental materials include a commentary recorded by director Zemeckis, lead actor Kurt Russell, and co-writer Bob Gale. Also on the disc are outtakes, talent files, production notes, an advertising gallery, television advertisements, and radio promotional spots. This is an excellent disc from Columbia/TriStar.

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.
