HELLO OUT THERE - WIDESCREEN PLEASE!

Rating: Null/10 (7 December 2000)

This is a film that really needs to be put on the home video market in a widescreen format. With this much talent both in front of and behind the camera, there has to be someone who can make this happen for this movie. Catch-22 has a strong enough following to warrant such a release. I'm sure devotees of the book have their own opinions about the movie (never read it) but, as cinema, I was glued to it at 2am and could not get myself to go to sleep till it was over. I am big on seeing the film makers intended aspect ratio and the current video version of this film is terrible.
