This Blue-Ray version of 'Rocky' shames the format presenting an 'overdone' high def transfer that compromises the original cinematography of the film, and at the same time is completely void of any and all bonus features that have graced previous standard dvd incarnations. Skip it.

In this fourth release of 'Rocky' on dvd, we get a few more bonus features, but nothing really worth re-buying the title for if you already own any of the previous dvd editions.

This bare-bones release does nothing to contribute to the capabilities of the supposed 'up and coming' Blue-Ray format. Perhaps that is why the disc is so cheap in comparison with other Blue-Ray titles. If you own any version of T2 on standard dvd, you're better off.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Rae Dawn Chong. When his daughter is kidnapped, a retired special agent resumes his former duties with a vengeance. 1985/color/90 min/R.

This Blue-Ray version of 'Commando' presents image quality that is nearly identical to the standard dvd director's cut, the only question being - where are all the bonus features that are on the regular dvd? Perhaps they're hiding somewhere, but they're certainly nowhere to be found on this disc, which isn't worth buying in my opinion.

This Blue-Ray version of 'Christmas Story' presents almost nothing new compared to its standard dvd counterpart. Unless you don't have it on dvd already, I'd say skip it.

Not Really Worth It If You Already Have on DVD
on April 22, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
This Blue-Ray version presents so-called upgraded picture quality over the standard definition dvd, although I don't really notice a huge difference. While this disc faithfully ports over all the special features from the previous 2-disc dvd special edition, it really offers nothing new much new in terms of extras. Unless you're a person who just has money to burn, I wouldn't recommend buying this one unless you don't already have it."

Not Really Worth It If You Already Have on DVD
on April 22, 2008
Posted by: kevman79
This Blue-Ray version of 'Blazing Saddles' presents slightly upgraded picture quality, the only question being - is it that much better than standard dvd as to warrant spending the moeny if you already own it? Probably not. While this disc faithfully ports over all the special features from previous dvd edition, it really offers nothing new much new in terms of extras. So the bottom line is, do you feel like spending a good chunk of money for picture quality that will only be slightly noticeable when viewed on a high quality large widescreen HDTV? Unless you're a person who just has money to burn, I'd recommend just buying the special standard edition dvd and saving yourself about $20."

![Lethal Weapon Legacy [3 Discs] [DVD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/prescaled/500/500/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/304b2327-370a-41e7-956a-951dd4939472.png)
This three-pack of discs from Warner Bros. collects the director's cuts editions of the first three Lethal Weapon films. Each disc contains extended versions featuring previously unreleased footage, and theatrical trailers. Each movie is presented in a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves their original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. This is an excellent package for hardcore fans of Richard Donner's slam-bang series.

In my opinion, the 'Lethal Weapon' director's cuts just aren't worth owning unless you are head-over-heels for the films. But if you are, then this over-priced box set is for you.

Fans of the forever bickering cop team of Murtaugh and Riggs take note. All four of the Lethal Weapon films are packaged together in this gift set from Warner Bros. Each of these titles (Lethal Weapon, Lethal Weapon 2, Lethal Weapon 3, and Lethal Weapon 4) is available individually, but this package offers them all together for a reasonable list price.
Posted by: kevman79
In my opinion, the only two 'Lethal Weapon' films worth owning are the first and maybe the fourth. Save yourself money and buy the titles individually.

'Lethal Weapon 3' is yet another poor sequel to a first film that was mediocre at best. Dvd transfer is acceptable, but the film just isn't worth owning in my opinion.
