Comments: B. (Viewed as a kid) There are some movies you just see all the time. you may or may not even be a fan, its just always been one of those films. Is anyone really all that surprised though when it comes to a Jerry Bruckheimer film? If you are only vaguely thinking of owning this, the unmarked 20th anniversary release indicated as, Widescreen Special Collectors Edition, is definately the way to go as far as look, sound and extras. I don't know about any other additional material (there certainly wasn't any on prior releases) but I would venture to say that theatrical trailers are missing.
