Sylvester Stallone returns to the character which made him famous in this wildly successful sequel. Rocky III starts with the Italian Stallion so famous that his likeness is everywhere, including pinball machines. Fame and complacency soon cause Balboa to lose his title to young thug Clubber Lang (Mr. T), who inadvertently causes the death of Rocky's beloved trainer, Mickey (Burgess Meredith), before their first championship bout. After sinking into a depression, Balboa must regain the love and support of his family, as well as the elusive "eye of the tiger," the hungry need to beat the opponent which former foe Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) teaches him during this film's de rigueur training sequence. In the end, Balboa faces off against Lang for a second time. "Eye of the Tiger," the theme song Stallone commissioned from the band Survivor, became a huge hit single.

This is possibly the best Rocky movie. It was cool to see Mr. T in it.

Donald Petrie's Mystic Pizza was one of the harder-to-find laserdiscs for many years, having appeared (and promptly disappeared) from Image Entertainment, so this DVD is a double treat, solving the rarity problem with a low-priced, high-resolution edition of a beautiful movie. This edition looks great -- though one sort of longs to see how this picture might look in high-definition -- and sounds very good; this release, from 2001, marked the point where DVDs began catching up to laser in terms of sound. It's also been encoded with 16 chapters, which is barely adequate for a picture like this -- it gets there by not dividing the credit sequence off from the introduction to the restaurant, or Kat's first meeting with her employer from the vignette with her mother, little matters like that which make this disc a little less valuable than it otherwise might be. It opens to the menu automatically on start-up and the bonus features include the original trailer and a choice of French and Spanish subtitles, English and Spanish stereo surround, and French mono.

This two-disc set contains every episode from the first season of the hit MTV reality show The Osbournes. Each episode is presented in the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. French subtitles are accessible, and the soundtracks are closed-captioned. Supplemental materials include commentary from the entire family on many of the episodes, unaired footage, interviews, an Ozzy translator, and many other humorous extras. This is an excellent set for fans of the series.

Girls seem to really like it. I think it is weird how they share this pair of pants and they fit all of them.

This movie isn't as good as the original cartoon version. A good kid's movie though.

Originally released in the early days of DVD, Jerry Maguire had great sound and picture, but nothing more. The release of this two-disc special edition has certainly changed that and the lack of extras on the first release is made up in droves. The first disc, with the movie, has a commentary track with director Cameron Crowe and stars Tom Cruise, Renee Zellweger, and Cuba Gooding Jr. The second disc, though, has the wealth of supplemental features. Here the movie is presented again, but in a smaller box with a video commentary of the four participants. It's the same commentary as the first disc, and while entertaining to watch them interact, there are far too many dry spells. Obviously they enjoy just watching the movie again. The remainder of the extras on the second disc are plentiful, including deleted scenes and rehearsal footage (both with optional commentary), a made-up shoe commercial with "Rod Tidwell," a Bruce Springsteen music video, photo gallery, theatrical trailers, and a brief featurette with cast and crew interviews. As for picture and sound, they're impeccable. The 1.85:1 image is representational of the theatrical experience with nicely saturated colors and solid, deep blacks. The 5.1 Dolby Digital track is also impressive, with just the right amount of surround material and clean, distinct use of the all important front speakers. Dialogue is clear and never distorted. All in all, this special edition is equal to most produced, in all respects.

One of Tom Cruise's best movies. A fun movie to watch and it shows you the other side of sports.

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.
