Must've seen this one at least 30 times on cable. Lots of laughs (especially whenever the late, great Phil Hartman is onscreen) and hilarious ending.

Peavey · 01-04-2019, 07:40 PM

Nice, I thought this was a pretty good comedy. I'll be picking this up.

Agree, ending is great.

Michael24 · 01-04-2019, 07:54 PM

Haven't seen this in years but it contains one of the best endings of any movie I've ever seen. I remember seeing it in the theater and everybody just lost it when it happened. Fun cast, too.

Jeeze, I just bought this on digital for $4.99 last week. I never thought they'd release it on blu-ray in the US. I might double-dip if there are some extras.

deltatauhobbit · 01-04-2019, 09:43 PM

I had been tempted to buy the region B locked disc, looks like I can just hold out a bit longer. Glad some more catalog titles that have been available overseas for awhile now are finally starting to show up here.

Awesome! I've been waiting on this one since it was released in Europe back in 2015. Now bring on The Hard Way and The Secret of My Success!

There probably won’t be any extras, but I’ve got my fingers crossed.

meremortal · 01-05-2019, 03:50 AM

As others mentioned above, the ending for this movie is priceless. The rest of the film is great too. A total underrated gem, imo.

Yea, I'm pretty sure the UK version is bare bones. I have The Secret of My Success from the UK and it's bare bones. I hope I'm wrong, though.

This is one of my favorite comedies! Great ending! I've been eyeing the region free imports of some of these Michael J. Fox flicks, but I'm glad I held off.

MaskedRider · 01-07-2019, 12:50 AM

Sweet! I'll grab this one. I never bought it on DVD.

gates70 · 01-07-2019, 02:34 AM

Never seen it but Kirk's in it so I'm in!

RCRochester · 01-07-2019, 04:48 AM

This is a great, charming comedy. It's directed by Jonathan Lynn, who also directed Clue and My Cousin Vinny among others, so he's adept at that sort of thing. It's got a great supporting cast, but of course seeing Kirk and Michael J. Fox in the lead roles is wonderful. I miss seeing those two guys in films. The ending is great, but there are other twists and turns that the movie takes that are just as fun.

Mark Smith · 01-09-2019, 11:43 PM

Probably the same as the region free UK version. I'll wait since I already have that one

MattQuack · 01-16-2019, 02:51 PM

Day one purchase for me.

filmbuffTX · 02-10-2019, 02:58 PM

I blind bought this and thought it was pretty awesome. It's funny, well written, full of twists and surprises, and I think it's one of the better Michael J. Fox performances. Both he and Kirk Douglas are great in this and Phil Hartman has another hilarious supporting role. The entire cast is solid. Like others said above, the ending is very good.

The disc is bare bones. No menu - the movie starts immediately when the disc is inserted and the pop up menu button on your remote only toggles the subtitles on and off.

The video quality is fine, not great. It looks film like to me. There's grain present and overall it has some decent detail. Nice colors.

The dialogue is loud and clear on the DTS 5.1 audio track. The disc is a BD-50.

RudyC · 02-11-2019, 05:43 AM

i already have this from italy in the micheal j fox collection set.
I love this movie

recS-12 · 02-11-2019, 05:48 AM

Ordered a copy from Best Buy. Haven’t seen this since it debuted on DVD. Will give it another try and see why it fell off my radar for so long...

Dragon78 · 02-11-2019, 10:50 AM

Completely missed that was getting a BR release. I haven't watched it in years so I am not sure if I will get it yet.
