The Dirty Dozen [DVD] [Standard]

Warner Brothers has made up for the long wait for a good DVD edition of The Dirty Dozen. This two-disc package is excellent, a major improvement on the previous release. Image quality: A new transfer to anamorphic video. The image is great--very sharp and clear, giving all due emphasis to the gritty quality of the story. In some shots you can see every pore on Lee Marvin's face. A little frightening, I suppose, but worth it. Sound: Very good. The Dirty Dozen won the Oscar for Best Sound Effects, and this DVD's sound does the film justice. Special features: Surprisingly good for a film as far-removed in time as this. The highlight, for me, was the commentary on the film by a few of the surviving actors, a film historian, and Cpt. Dale Dye of Warriors, Inc. Dye's salty commentary is the real jewel of the features on this edition. It's nice to see a movie I've loved since childhood getting the DVD it deserves. If you've been waiting for this DVD--or even if you haven't--pick it up as soon as you can. Highly recommended

Excellent blu ray full screen reproduction and sound. Great movie-have not seen since it came out!

No limit of handsome men....Clint Walker, Jim Browne, Charles Bronson, Trini Lopez, great.

This film is not to be missed. Actors are great as is the plot. Video quality very good with fast, free delivery.

This movie is the original film without special effects or remaking. Great movie! I highly recommend!!
