One of the most rented videos in history, Three Men and a Baby 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. French and Spanish subtitles are accessible, and the soundtrack is closed-captioned. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, which is something of a disappointment considering the enduring popularity of the film. This is a decent disc that will satisfy fans of the film, but offers little for the average DVD consumer.

Not the most interesting idea for a movie but the cast does a good job.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A pair of hapless plumbers get sucked into a parallel dimension in this video game-to-feature adaptation from Disney/Buena Vista Home Entertainment. Presented in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen and offering audio rendered in closed-captioned English Dolby Digital Surround, this release is sure to entertain fans if the high-jumping, mustached Nintendo hero.

Awakenings attempts revival on this single-layered DVD edition with one picture format -- widescreen anamorphic (1.85:1 aspect ratio) -- and the following unremarkable and unremastered audio track options: English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround), Spanish (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround), and French (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround), with subtitles available in Spanish. Closed captioning is also included. There are no special or bonus features of any kind on this release. Sound and picture are of approximately the quality of a medium- to low-grade VHS tape, with the sound coming across as mono-sounding throughout much of the film. The plastic DVD case includes the usual chapter index.

Quigley Down Under comes to this dual-layered DVD in a widescreen anamorphic picture format (1.85:1 aspect ratio) and with the following audio options: English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo), French (Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo), and Spanish (Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono), with subtitles available in Spanish and French. Aside from the theatrical trailers usually included in DVD transfers, however, there are no special features of any kind included. The look of the picture is of about television or VHS quality, with the usual black bars at the top and bottom of the picture given the 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Sound quality is barely stereo in places and lacks crispness, detail, and directionality; it too is of about VHS quality.

The Odd Couple's Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau re-team in Grumpy Old Men, which comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer that fails to preserve the original theatrical aspect ratio of the film. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English, French, and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials are limited to a trailer and production notes. This is a substandard DVD that should have some more whistles and bells considering the film's status as a sleeper hit.

Stanley Tong directs international action superstar Jackie Chan in Police Story 4: First Strike, which comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, and a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. English, French, and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include filmographies of the cast and crew, biographies of the cast and crew, and a theatrical trailer. This is a fine release from New Line that should appeal to genre enthusiasts.

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.
