This movie shares so many similarities with Fight Club, one of my favorite movies of all-time. Without giving anything away, both movies follow a similar pattern. Main character works in an office, unsatisfied with life, until they meet a reckless stranger who opens their eyes, in both positive and negative ways.

Over the course of the movie, we see Michael become just as reckless as Alex. After a tape surfaces in an inopportune moment, Michael's engagement falls apart, and he turns to a life of crime… all with a wide smile on his face. That is, until he crosses Alex. From that point on, things devolve into a cat-and-mouse affair.

Video:
The DVD is presented in Anamorphic Widescreen 1.85:1 on one side, and for all three of you fullscreen fans, its presented in 1.33:1 on the other. The print is acceptable, but suffers from haziness that dulls out the film.

Audio:
The audio is presented in Dolby 2.0. A movie like this doesn't require DTS, but certain scenes would have benefited from the Dolby 5.1 treatment. A French audio track is provided on the DVD as well.

Menus:
Completely static, and boring images from the movie. Easy to navigate, but would it have killed them to make them the least bit interesting?

Extras:
MGM certainly is a Bad Influence on this DVD. Aside from one flimsy theatrical trailer, there is nothing else on this DVD except for the feature. Yawn.
