Don't buy this pack if you think Clooney has a major part in Thin Red Line. He's only in the film for 5 minutes. That's it. The movie is great--don't get me wrong. But this is not a "DEAL" if you're thinking Clooney Trilogy.

Two of the three movies in this collection may prove disappointing to Clooney fans. "Solaris" will appeal to hard-core science fiction buffs (for example, ardent fans of "2001 - A Space Odyssey" will like it), but it's too bizarre and perhaps too hard to follow for many viewers. "Thin Red Line" includes Clooney only in a cameo appearance of barely two minutes at the end of a nearly-three-hour movie. Clearly, these two selections were not the best choices for a Clooney showcase. Rather, this package was designed to bring additional sales to three movies that are a few years old and aren't selling well anymore.
That's not to say that these are bad movies. "Solaris" is well produced and has its niche audience. "Thin Red Line" is a superb World War II movie for those who like realistic portrayals akin to "Saving Private Ryan." And "One Fine Day" features Clooney at his romantic-comedy best, paired with the always exquisite Michelle Pfeiffer. If these three very different genres - sci-fi, war movie, and romantic comedy - all appeal to you, this collection is a good choice. If you want a George Clooney fix, you're likely to be disappointed, so look elsewhere.

"Thin Red Line" appeared to have less than 3 minutes of George Clooney in it...great movie, but very disappointing if you wanted to see a Clooney performance. However for the very brief minutes Clooney was in the movie, he made it count! "One Fine Day"...the two stars both looked beautiful. "Solaris" was interesting and thought provoking.

the man is another joke in Hollywood. He can not act. He would not a good script if he saw one. He gets roles only because of looks and because he can charm his way with the female co-stars. The man is a real toad. Always will be.
