AntiTrust DVD (2001)

Thrills of the computer-based kind, along with a healthy dose of paranoia propel the enjoyable film, "AntiTrust". MGM have clearly taken some time with a DVD release that comes with a number of extra features.

Trying to find a fault with the picture quality would just be silly. It's not perfect, but would almost perfect do for you?

The 5.1 sound mix is an intelligent effort that doesn't needlessly over-amplify subtle effects, so that when it does kick into gear for exciting scenes, you really appreciate it.

MGM deserve a pat on the back for putting together a good selection of special features. Trouble is, they're really dull, but that's the fault of the interviewees.The audio commentary in particular is a good cure for insomnia. Director Peter Howitt spends far too much time describing the on-screen action, and as for editor Zach Staenberg, he's hardly even there.

Once you've woken up from that, there's a marginally better 'making of' documentary that does include a look at the production design. Be warned though, there are plenty of plot spoilers so don't go watching it until after the movie.

If you're still awake, there's a selection of deleted scenes to watch (with optional dull commentary), a music video and trailer. But, the presentation of the movie is spot on and that's what matters.
