Summary: Great Video, Bad Disk
Review: This is a wonderfully funny and enjoyable movie marred by a completely horrible release. The colors are completely off and the sound is almost unintelligible. Avoid like the plague any version which lists E.B. Clucher as the director. I'm not sure previous releases are any better... If you can get a good copy, you'll find this movie worth the effort!

Summary: Great film, bad disk!
Review: This is a wonderfully funny movie with a great deadpan performance by Terence Hill and his straight man Bud Spencer. Beautifully shot in an over that over the top, true spaghetti western style by Enzo Barboni.
That said, the disk is completely worthless. The sound is so bad you can't hear the dialog and the color is so washed out in several scenes you can't make out backgrounds. The version I'm referring to is UPC 890328777067, the 2002, "region free" release.
If you can find a decent copy of this film, it's well worth the effort.

Summary: Excellent Movie - Terrible Pan & Scan DVD
Review: This is certainly one of the best Bud Spencer-Terence Hill movies. It is actually much smarter than other Spencer-Hill pictures, because it contains a lot of intertextual references in its wonderfully portrayed western (parody/homage) moments. The music is magnificent too.I saw this film in Bosnia for the first time when I was kid and I immediately fell in love with it. In a few years I owned over 30 Bud Spencer (and Terence Hill) movies. The version I had in Bosnia (on a pirated VHS tape)had wonderful colours and was rich in detail. Anybody can guess why? Yes, you're right - because it was a WIDESCREEN copy (possibly imported from Italy). This DVD, however, is released in a horrendous PAN & SCAN edition. Many nice details are lost, there is a lot of artificial panning, and in certain action sequences you cannot even decipher what is going on. There are a few moments in which only background is seen, because the characters on both sides of the original widescreen picture (ar: 2,35:1) have been cut off. Furthermore, this DVD has terrible image resolution. Pixillation is present throughout the film (I have some Real Video files on my PC that have better picture quality than this DVD). This DVD, nonetheless, is very cheap. I bought it for 7.99 Canadian dollars (around 5 American dollars). And, of course, this is the best copy of this brilliant film that is available in North America and the reason why everybody should own it. 5 stars for the movie, 1 star for the DVD. All in all, 3 stars from me. I just wish I had my Bosnian widescreen copy.

Summary: TRINITY YES! DISK NO!
Review: Yes folks, just like a few of the other reviewers mentioned, this disk is pathetic. It almost looks like someone videoed a VHS copy off the TV and transferred to DVD. What's even more ridiculous is the "announcer" voice at the menu screen who actually mentions how good the quality is - I've never heard anything like it...I'm scratching my head as I type this. AARRRGH!!
I love this movie - what always has killed me is the way the "sheriff" brother bonks everyone on the head - priceless.
For you Trinity fans don't hate what I'm about to suggest. I think this movie would be an ideal candidate for a remake (I know, I know remakes are miserable and why tamper with genius). However, there are cases, notwithstanding the disk quality, that warrant a fresh coat of paint...and not what Smith/Klein did for Wild, Wild West. I would like to see what this movie would look like without some of the date score music and poor acting of the Marshall's goons. It's just a thought. Anyway - this movie is a comedy classic that has been ruined by whatever is on that DVD. Enjoy if you can.
