Rating:  - Warning - Raising Arizona is Small/Letterboxed
It pains me to give this collection less than 5 stars, because these are unbelievably great films at what has (at times) been a great price. But in presenting "Raising Arizona" to friends and family last night, I was frustrated that I couldn't get the 16:9 picture to fill my HDTV screen. So I fiddled with controls on the DVD player and the TV set itself, continually failing to make the picture large enough (though the aspect ratio was fine). Only later did I find out that this is not a true 16:9 anamorphic transfer, but a "letterboxed" version - meaning you're only going to get a picture about half the size your television is capable of showing. I just checked "Fargo," and it filled the screen nicely (though neither film has a really pristine transfer). Does it sound like I'm nitpicking details? Maybe so - but it's only because these are COEN BROTHERS films, and are so close to being perfect that I'd like the technical side to live up to the films themselves. That being said, this is a terrific collection and highly recommended.
Rating:  - Coen Brothers smorgasbord
If you love the Coen Brothers' movies...and who doesn't??!!......this is a great deal. You will always have something to watch. They are an American treasure, as far as I am concerned.
Rating: - good buy
I really like this collection. It's great for the price. I already had Fargo, but it was scratched, so it worked out. I cant get enough of that movie, its definitely a favorite. Miller's Crossing I had never seen, probably wont watch again for a while, a little boring, but still good. Barton Fink I had never seen, and I loved it, great movie. Raising Arizona I had never seen, also a little boring, but fun. And Blood Simple, I have seen once, awesome movie. I would definitely recommend this collection to any Coen Brothers fan.
Rating: - Perfect for those who love the Coen boys!
I bought this for my hubby and he had seen all of them except for Barton Fink. He was pleasantly surprised at how well it stacked up to the other Coen Brothers movies.
Rating: - worth its weight in (twisted) gold.
The purchase of "Fargo" alone was worth the price. Everything else is a bonus.
