TERRIBLE DVD OF A GREAT FILM, July 21, 2000
This review is from: Army of One (DVD)
Joshua Tree was one of the best action movies of the '90s and Artisan (who can usually be relied upon to make awesome DVDS) have given it a terrible transfer.
All we get on this very poor and lazy release is a flat and static main menu, Dolby-Surround, a fullscreen trailer and THE ENTIRE MOVIE IN FULLSCREEN. UGH!
This film is supposed to be in 2.35:1 but instead Artisan, for some reason, released it in a mutilated 1.33:1. This is not right. The directors vision of the film is the one that should be respected and seen by everyone. I advise you to wait for a more definative release of Joshua Tree (not Army of One). Joshua Tree is the REAL title.
I really do hope that Artisan change their minds about this DVD and release a better version soon. Widescreen is the most important feature of ANY DVD released. But it is not present here so save your cash for a future release.

FULLSCREEN SHOULD BE ILLEGAL ON DVD, September 27, 2000
This review is from: Army of One (DVD)
Normally I would reccomend this DVD to you. But only in widescreen. Artisan have butchered an excellent action film. Leave this edition be.

One of Lundgren's better movies, December 6, 1999
I thought this was a good entertaining movie. I wish there was more hand to hand combat, since Lundgren is specialized, but overall it was good. I got double my money's worth. Non stop action. George Segal was excellent as well as a corrupt cop.
