Description
What counts is not who makes the first move, but who survives the last! Sylvester Stallone and Antonio Banderas are rival hit men in Assassins, a thriller directed by Richard Donner (Lethal Weapon) and scripted by Andy Wachowski & Larry Wachowski (The Matrix) and Brian Helgeland (Mystic River). Stallone portrays ex-CIA explosives expert Ray Quick in The Specialist, hired by drop-dead beauty May Munro (Sharon Stone) to wreak vengeance on a Miami crime syndicate. But the mob isn't going down without a fight. And as the incendiary action unfolds, an ominous question arises. Is May also setting up Ray?

Whats the matter with full screen? Nothing............2007-05-19
I too prefer a letterbox (widescreen) transfer over a full screen one because the letterbox format is the way you see the movie in a theater. However unlike the widescreen movies of the 50's & 60's you don't lose any picture for fullscreen versions of recent (70's & after) movies. For the older movies they had to pan & scan the image to fit the screen and you lost part of the picture that way so you buy the letterbox version to get the full image. But today they just open up the matte meaning you see stuff at the top & bottom that you didn't see in the theater. Sure I bought this full screen disc. It was agood way to get two great movies for the one low price. Not all double movie (2 on one disc) sets are full screen. I've bought some (like The Fugitive/US Marshalls) where both movies were in letterbox format. Oh & for these sets they are flipper discs meaning one movie per side of the disc. A great way to get a pair of movies!!
Great movies, unfortunately not widescreen.......2006-09-06
Very disappointed to find these two films have been reformated to fit "your TV!" Not my TV! If you like "full-screen" versions, you will be well pleased. If you collect widescreen videos, don't buy this package!
Stallone Assassins.......2006-08-20
Both flicks are excellent - to get them together on one disc is a bonus

2 into 1; You can't beat that........2007-02-13
For action movie fans, this is one of the best 2 discs DVD sets you can buy. Each of the 2 discs has the same movie on both sides: one for NTSC and one for Widescreen. Each of the movies has good picture and good digital sound. The films are full of action, drama, and romance. The DVD menus are incredible; each disc is like it's own single independent disc but this is a 2 discs DVD set. 2 into 1; you can't beat that.
