This comedy skewed towards young people gets a basic presentation ion its release on DVD. Camp Nowhere has been given a letterboxed transfer at the aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and the audio has been mastered in Dolby Digital Surround Stereo. The film's original English language soundtrack is featured, as well as an alternate dubbed version in Spanish. No bonus material has been included.

I thought Christopher Lloyd was really funny in this movie about a bunch of kids who basically make their own summer camp. Look for some great cameo's during the movie. Widescreen, recommended.

Steve Miner's comedy Big Bully comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include cast info and theatrical trailers for other films produced by the studio. This bare-bones release offers fine picture and sound and is worth its inexpensive list price.

I wasn't overly impressed with this comedy starring Rick Moranis and Tom Arnold, but the kids may enjoy it as it's definitely aimed towards a younger audience. Widescreen.

Not What I Expected
on May 9, 2008

I have to admit that I was somewhat letdown by this movie that came highly recommended to me through a friend. While the performances are generally good, the storyline itself is not. Recommended to fans only.

Better than Average Movie
on May 9, 2008

Based on a true story, 'Casino' isn't an incredible movie, but it's better than average, and features some excellent performances. Fans will be happy with this recently released special edition, that features some bonus items not available on the previous dvd release.

'The Lost Boys' has obtained quite a cult status over the years, which somewhat surprises me, because it's really not that great of a movie in my opinion. Still, for fans of the cast, and the films cool soundtrack, this one is well worth the buy.

This shape-shifting comic fantasy has been given a stripped-down presentation for its release on DVD. Dream a Little Dream has been transferred to disc in full-frame format at the aspect ratio of 1.33:1, and the audio (in English) has been mastered in Dolby Digital Stereo. No multiple language options or bonus features have been included.

Another Corey & Corey Movie
on May 9, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
I don't know how many movies Corey Haim and Corey Feldman have done together, but it's more than a few. Still, this was one of their better outings, and worth a watch, or a purchase for that matter, for fans of the film.

Should Have Been Better For A 'Best Picture' Movie
on May 9, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
I'm kind of surprised that Martin Scorsese won the Best Director Oscar and Best Picture Oscar for this movie, which was good, but not great. Scorsese has done far better work than this film, for which he didn't win any awards. Nice 2-disc special edition here, for those who enjoyed the film.

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.

Wasn't This Supposed to Be A Comedy?
on May 9, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
I thought this one would be a riot. After all, Kurt Russell was the star and Robert Zemeckis directed. Well, everyone has their bad ones I guess.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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.

Good Action-Comedy

Posted by: kevman79
This movie had a really good blend of action and comedy I thought, and Christian Slater gives one of his more memorable performances. Widescreen, recommended.

The film that shot Marisa Tomei to stardom comes to DVD in an excellent package. The disc boasts a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English and French soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are also accessible. Supplemental features include a commentary by director Jonathan Lynn, theatrical trailers, and television spots. Fans of the film will be thrilled with the look and sound on the disc. Tomei's Academy Award-winning performance loses nothing on the small screen.
