A Great Value for Those Who Just Want to Watch the Movies! January 6, 2009 I think pretty much all the previous reviewers, as well as myself, agree that both these movies are great war flicks. I saw them both when they were originally released in the theatre and thoroughly enjoyed them. For whatever reason I had never gotten around to buying the movies when they were released on DVD. So when my daughter gave this "Double-Feature" set to me for Christmas I was thrilled.
These are basic DVDs of the films. There are very little "special features" included. Both films have the trailers and the Dirty Dozen has a short featurette on the film. That's pretty much it. But since I'm not a big fan of film commentaries that is fine with me. Most of the time I find the commentaries to be the ramblings of people too darn old to quite remember what they were thinking while they were filming anyway. Just check out the commentaries for The Magnificent Seven (Special Edition). Eli Wallach, James Colburn, and two production managers talking over the top of each other. Drove me nuts!
The big advantage here is that you get both movies, on opposite sides of the same disk, for a great price. Both are uncut so you don't get the "Edited for television and formatted to fit your screen" versions. If you are like me and buy DVDs mostly to watch the movies, and the special features aren't that important to you, then don't hesitate. It will cost you more when purchased separately.
Just what he wanted September 8, 2008 My husband loves old war movies, and this is exactly what he wanted. HE couldn't be happier!!!
BEWARE OF FALSE ADVERTISING ON PACKAGE January 31, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
These are both EXCELLENT movies. However, for some reason (mere incompetence, I'd bet) the dvd's packaging states that The Dirty Dozen is presented in 16x9 (anamorphic) format and also includes audio commentary by cast and crew. This is NOT TRUE--neither of these features exist on the disc. If you're thinking of buying this as an upgrade from your standard single-disc version of Dirty Dozen, don't bother. The DD side of this flipper disc is the same as the budget single-disc, non-anamorphic version that's been available for years. Warner's should either fix the packaging, or upgrade the content of the disc. SO ANNOYING!
Richard's thoughts December 18, 2007 I liked these movies when I saw them on TV. I still enjoy them. Thank you for your prompt delivery.

I like the movies, but the DVD skip on both movies, the soundtrack was on and off at times. I hope the rest is ok. Tom Thomas
