Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Michael Douglas and Kevin Kline are both President and accounted for in two hit comedies about the nation's Oval Office. Rob Reiner directs The American President [Side A], starring Douglas as a widower chief executive whose poll numbers plummet when he falls for an environmental lobbyist (Annette Bening). Martin Sheen, Michael J. Fox, Richard Dreyfuss and more top talents co-star in this nimble exploration of private romance in a public Presidency. And in a land where anybody can become President, anybody just did! Kline and Sigourney Weaver star in Dave [Side B], the wry Ivan Reitman-directed story of a lookalike who becomes a stand-in for the country's actual President. From coast to coast the votes are in: this double feature is a winner by a landslide!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great movies but..., January 8, 2007

By	M. Collins - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

American President and Dave are among my favorite movies. 2 great movies on the same dvd !

The quality of the video in these dvds leaves much to be desired. The quality reminds me of something you would see if you taped the show and you didn't have cable/satelite (antenna) and then tried to use filters to reduce noise. The original DVD release of American President had noise in it too but the picture seems more "pixelated" in this release. I guess since these movies are well over 10 years old a higher quality format doesn't exist? Actually, My eariler comments about the quality was its appearance on a LCD monitor. It looks quite decent on TV.

That being said it is very convient having 2 movies on 1 dvd at a great price, so I would recommend this dvd over VHS anyday.

5.0 out of 5 stars Presidential film double feature, June 4, 2008

By	Laura A. Fitzgerald (CAMBRIDGE, MA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this DVD of both films because I enjoyed the drama, trials and consquences in them, and I'm glad that they got together in this DVD so I can continue watching them one at a time and enjoy even more! I'm also glad capitions and subtitles are permitted in it since I'm a Deaf person!

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor image compression, November 28, 2008

By	A. Freeman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We purchased this disc containing Dave and The American President. We love both movies. But the authors compressed the content too far making the disc and the picture comes out blocky showing too many compression artifacts. I recommend buying the titles separately.
