Movie ReviewsLemmon and Mathau are comic gold!! mweusthoff | St. Louis MO | 06/17/2001 (4 out of 5 stars) ""The Front Page" is a must-see for any fans of Jack Lemmon and Walter Mathau! I bought the movie before I ever even saw it and I loved it! These two are as funny as ever in this comedy about two reporters who are on top of the hottest story in town. This is a great film to watch, although Carol Burnett's character was a down side to it, but you hardly even notice it with the rest of the fine cast. The DVD offers an overall good presentation of the film in standard (unfortunately not widescreen)format. Bottom line- it's worth buying, even if you've never seen it! Especially with the great price!" Great Entertainment! spiderorchid | Germany | 03/10/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "In my opinion the best of the Lemmon/Matthau movies. It's everything a screwball-comedy should be: fast, funny, cynical. The cast is perfect and Wilder's direction brilliant. I liked "His Girl Friday" but "The Front Page" is even better." Now in Widescreen Erik NYC | 07/05/2005 (3 out of 5 stars) "Kudos to Universal for reissuing "The Front Page" in wide screen (and enhanced for 16x9 televisions). The first DVD version, released in 2001, was in full screen. "The Front Page" may not be the best version of this story ("His Girl Friday") but it isn't the worst either ("Switching Channels"). And any film directed by Billy Wilder and featuring the team of Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau is worth a look." Jack Lemmon and Walther Matthau At Best spiderorchid | 03/15/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "A very funny movie, if you like to laugh buy this one it is one of the best comedies you'll ever see."
