Uprising, the made-for-television tale of the Warsaw Ghetto Resistance, comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original broadcast aspect ratio of 1.78:1. The closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a pair of documentaries about the events depicted in the film, trailers, and a pair of commentary tracks (one recorded by the crew, the other by the cast). This is an excellent release from Warner Brothers.
This box set features all 8 episodes of the gripping mini-series, telling the dramatic true story of the FBI's hunt for the deadliest serial bomber in history, and the criminal profiler who pioneered the use of forensic linguistics to identify and ultimately capture the Unabomber.
Bad Boys I and II are featured in this special digitally enhanced collection. Former video director Michael Bay had his first big hit with the 1995 action comedy, which also returned producers Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson to the big-budget, high-violence movies that they successfully churned out in the '80s. Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) are two Miami cops who watch as 100 million dollars in heroin, from the biggest drug bust of their careers, is stolen out of the basement of police headquarters. This puts them hot on the trail of French drug lord Fouchet (Tchéky Karyo), who leaves a trail of bodies in his wake and only one witness, Julie Mott (Téa Leoni), who quickly teams up with our heroes. In the 2003 sequel, Burnett and Lowrey have been assigned to head up a task force to investigate the illegal trafficking of ecstasy into the city. They discover that an underground gang war has been instigated by drug kingpin Johnny Tapia (Jordi Molla). In order to cut off the flow of the designer drug, they have to take down Tapia.
This release contains the trilogy of the sci-fi franchise Men in Black directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and stars Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as agents in a top-secret organization that track extra-terrestrial creatures on Earth. Titles include Men in Black, Men in Black II and Men in Black III.
