3.0 out of 5 stars Still waiting for WIDESCREEN version, February 13, 2006

By	PLM Again (Rogers, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grumpy Old Men - The Collection (DVD)

Comon' Warner Home Video. Get out of the 1980s mentality of producing video products for VHS players and 19" TVs and get into the age of DVD and large TVs. There is a huge queue of your customer's who are waiting to buy this movie in its original unmodified format.

Incidently, Warner Home Video also released the classic "Arthur" in full screen format only.

4.0 out of 5 stars Jack & Ann & Walter & Sophia, December 28, 2005

By	Movie Mania "DVD Collector" (Southern Calfornia) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Grumpy Old Men - The Collection (DVD)

This is a great pair of films. Jack & Walter made twelve films together. Grumpy Old Men was one of their best. Grumpier was not. But you should own both films as they make a nice set.

John and Max have been neighbors for years and enemies almost as long. They have a passion in common, fishing. In the first ice fishing and the second fresh water.

The first concerns the men competing for the attentions a sexy new neighbor (Ann-Margret). The second concerns a woman (Sophia Loren) who is converting the boys bait shop into an italian restaurant.

Both films have more and you should look at the individual film titles for more details. But if you like good comedy and Jack & Walter, then you should buy this pack.

The only negative for these DVD's are they are full frame and not widescreen. But these are not spectacle films so you really are not missing much. But I do wish they would have widescreen available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Grumpy Old Odd Couple, September 16, 2000

By	Richard L. Glover (Long Beach, Ca USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grumpy Old Men - The Collection (DVD)

Both of these "Grumpy Old Men" movies showcase two acting veterans at their best.Lemmon and Matthau have never been funnier in these two very enjoyable films....they will make you forget the major dissapoinment of The Odd Couple 2....It's too bad that we will never enjoy a third enstallment of these grumpy guys, but what a legacy of work they both have separate and together that we can enjoy over and over again.....
