![Bedazzled [DVD] [2000]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)
Harold Ramis' remake, Bedazzled comes to DVD in this handsome package from 20th Century Fox. The disc contains a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround, while a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. English and Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a pair of commentary tracks, one featuring the director, the second featuring star Elizabeth Hurley and producer Trevor Albert. A photo gallery, a look at the costume design, and a making-of featurette round out this THX certified disc that should please both fans of the film and DVD enthusiasts with its quality picture and sound, as well as its entertaining extras.

'Bedazzled' is both a funny and thought provoking film. It basically makes the blunt statement that 'nobody's perfect,' and that you're who you are for a reason, and people will love you regardless. I recommend this witty movie, presented here in it's original widescreen format.
I would recommend this to a friend!

this full-screen dvd version alters the original theatrical aspect ratio of the movie from 1.85:1 to 1.33:1, giving a you a picture that is different than what was originally seen in the theater. Buy the widescreen version instead.

Tom Shadyac directs Robin Williams in the feel-good comedy Patch Adams, which comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround. There are neither subtitles nor closed captions on this release. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, but this disc does offer excellent sound and picture quality.

'Patch Adams' is a disappointing and boring movie that gets more attention on this dvd than it deserves. Skip it.

this full-screen dvd set alters the original theatrical aspect ratios of the movies from 2.35:1 to 1.33:1, giving a picture in which you lose almost 50% of the image on each side in every scene. Buy the widescreen version instead.

Buy Only If You Don't Have the 4-Disc Version
on April 26, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
This extended version dvd set, part of of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy, is quite good, though I cannot recommend it if you already own the 4-disc extended version. There are some new bonus features on this most recent version, but unfortunately almost all the previous bonus features from the past dvd releases have been dropped, as has the DTS audio. Fanatic fans may want to purchase anyway, but it's an unnecessary and costly investment in my opinion.

This dvd set of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy, is quite good, though I cannot recommend it since the dvd set containing the 'extended versions' is so much better. If you're going to invest in these movies, you may as well go all-out and buy the films in their most complete format.

'Wargames' is a movie that everyone should see at least once as it deals completely with the moral implications of thermonuclear warfare. Good writing along with great performances make this one well worth it. Whether or not to buy this one will depend on how often you like to watch it. But most fans are sure to jump for joy over the anamorphic widescreen transfer. Highly recommended!

This is one of the worst martial arts movies ever made, I'm dumbfounded that it found its way onto dvd. Don't bother.

This remake of 'Godzilla' was just unbelievably stupid and isn't worth the dvd it's pressed on. Skip this one at all costs.

Starring Steve Guttenberg and Ally Sheedy, the 1986 sci-fi comedy Short Circuit centers on a robot who gains consciousness after being struck by lightning. Guttenberg and Sheedy fall in love while helping the charming robot escape the U.S. government. This bare-bones DVD release offers no bonus features, but treats the film nicely with a widescreen transfer and multiple English soundtracks in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound and Dolby Digital Stereo. Previously, in 2000, a nicely loaded edition with director commentary and production material was released.

'Short Circuit' is a disappointing movie overall, and has only a few funny moments. It's also a film thats sequel was far superior. Non-anamorphic letterbox widescreen, and no bonus features.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
