Phillip Noyce's 1992 action thriller Patriot Games comes to DVD in a widescreen special collector's edition from Paramount. The English soundtrack is offered in a Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround mix and a DTS mix. A French-dubbed stereo soundtrack is also included. Optional subtitles come in English and Spanish. Special features include the featurette "Patriot Games Up Close," along with cast and crew interviews and theatrical trailers. This disc is a slight improvement on the previous Paramount releases.

Considering that High Fidelity is largely about a guy talking to the camera, it doesn't seem like the kind of film that needs a DVD version. That is, until you see it. The clutter and disarray of Rob's bohemian world jumps from the letterbox screen in sharp detail, making it possible to read most of the stickers and posters that cover nearly every inch of wall and counter space. High Fidelity is also all about the omnipresent music, which has been beautifully rendered in Dolby Digital. Since the music and the dialogue are often coming through separate channels (especially in the record store scenes), one can appreciate the former without straining to hear the latter. In terms of bonus features, there are nine deleted scenes -- some good, some bad, most cut for pacing reasons. One of these is an uncredited cameo by Beverly D'Angelo in a scene based on an old gag with a new twist. There are also five short clips of interviews with Stephen Frears and John Cusack, who discusses the film as its co-writer and co-producer rather than as its star. Closed-captioning, Spanish subtitles, and a theatrical trailer complete the extras. This DVD won't blow anybody away, but it's definitely worthwhile for fans of the movie and its music.

2003's surprise family hit Daddy Day Care comes to DVD from Columbia Tristar in a packed release sure to please the kiddies over and over again. With both its 1.85:1 widescreen and full-screen video options and a full Dolby Digital 5.1 treatment on its audio, you can be sure that no one will be unhappy with what version they are forced to watch. Extras start with four different featurettes, where the focus is directly on the adorable kids in the film. From their continual harassment of Eddie Murphy to their adorable interviewing techniques as they pose each other planned questions, the kids are a riot and prove once again that they were the true stars of Daddy Day Care. Children will no doubt have a blast watching the small stars running around the set just as much as they'll love the games included on the disc: Name the Noise Maker, Kid Card Match Up, and Odd One Out, all created just for the DVD using photos and clips from the film. A separate blooper reel containing the end credits can also be found in the Special Features menu, which is probably useful only for immediacy rather than scanning through the DVD. Apart from the features based on the film, there's also a very special four-minute computer animated clip from Sony Imageworks called Early Bloomers, which most kids will eat up (especially if they're nuts for Finding Nemo). A trailers section is listed in two different spots, though both contain various children's fare, including Daddy Day Care, the original 1982 hit Annie, Matilda, Mona Lisa Smile, 2003's adaptation of Peter Pan, Cuba Gooding Jr.'s mentally challenged drama Radio, and Dana Carvey's The Master of Disguise. With cute animated menus to delight both young and old, this DVD should please fans of the film and youngsters alike.

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.
