DVD Synopsis

Used Cars is one of Robert Zemeckis' pre-Roger Rabbit and pre-Forrest Gump efforts starring Kurt Russell is a devious car salesman who goes to work for affable but monumentally unsuccessful used car dealer Jack Warden. Warden's principal rival is his more prosperous twin brother, also played by Warden, who schemes to take over the "good" brother's lot. After a series of raunchy vignettes, the film boils down to an every-man-for-himself price war between the two Wardens, which rages on even after we're one Warden short. The supporting cast of Used Cars is populated by such reliables as David L. Lander, Michael McKean, Al Lewis, Dub Taylor, Dick Miller and Betty Thomas. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Editorial Review of DVD

Robert Zemeckis' comedy Used Cars comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English, French, and Portuguese soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Stereo. Subtitles are accessible in all three of those languages as well as Spanish, Chinese, Korean, and Thai. Supplemental materials include a commentary recorded by director Zemeckis, lead actor Kurt Russell, and co-writer Bob Gale. Also on the disc are outtakes, talent files, production notes, an advertising gallery, television advertisements, and radio promotional spots. This is an excellent disc from Columbia/TriStar. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
