Customer Review Excellent film, "ok" disc - 3.75 out of 5  (4/20/2000) Ohter than a few really bad edits and the silly use of Larry Flynt himself as a judge, this is an excellent, thought-provoking film. The transfer is good, but far from perfect. It often suffers from that all too comon "shimmering" effect on bright objects, but it's not too distracting. The audio is good.

This nearly tied with "Fargo" for my favorite movie of 96, but I guess "Fargo" is a tad better by comparison. However, being that this was one of Columbia/Tristar's earlier releases, this movie is feature-less, which is a disappointment. There isn't even a trailer here. But the film is worth checking out in its widescreen format, which is not available on video cassette. That alone is a pretty good reason for buying i   more >>
