A fantastic film, see here for review - free in todays Sunday Times -
also you can get Clockwise (John Cleese) in the News of The World. Not sure of the quality etc.

Has this got a 5.1 soundtrack or just a stereo soundtrack on it?
Cheers in advance...

I hope you didn`t just buy it for the soundtrack, rocky. The sleeve may say Dolby Digital and DTS, but the disc has just got a basic Pro-Logic mix. Also, the film`s compressed on a DVD5 with no chapter stops.

Still, it was free so I mustn`t grumble.

That is a shame as I think the 5.1 sound on the original is very well implemented and an integral part of my enjoyment of the original film. I
did manage to get a copy from the fifth newsagent i tried. Even then some thieving git had pinched the dvd out of the plastic sleeve. Some kind person who bought the last copy heard my plight when I went to the counter and swapped mine for his.
Pity the info on the sleeve is wrong as I would`ve just ordered it from CDWow with my 5euro off voucher.
Nevermind still got the Times to plough thru now.

I don`t think I`ve ever had a free DVD with the newspapers that has the chapter points in it.
