Rating:  - PLEASE release "Cold Turkey" on DVD!!!?
I agree with most here who think this movie is WAY overlooked. It's a classic! As a smoker myself, I find it hilarious and ironic....the town goes to all the trouble of quitting smoking for 30 days in order to win $25 million from a tobacco company, only to attract a government missile factory to town that spews "legal" smoke all over the place. It also shows smokers as the regular, NON-trash people they were/are - and THAT's refreshing, at least to me. It's a hoot - the characters are great ... Read More
Rating: - A neglected masterpiece
This is one of the absolutely funniest movies ever made. I have a video home-taped years ago from a network broadcast, and when I want to laugh out loud (and occasionally roll on the floor) I play it. I think it is safe to say that if I were escaping from a burning building, it is one of the tapes I would seize immediately. Why in the world has it not been transferred to DVD?
Rating: - Up in Smoke...?
It is hard to believe that after looking for this release in DVD for so many years that every year I look I am disappointed that it is STILL not available. I, my wife and countless friends have quit smoking in the past couple years and this was one movie we all really wanted to see... it's a classic even if you're not suffering from withdrawl symptom... but if laughter is the best medicine this is the prescription you're looking for. A laugh riot sure to leave you smiling. Let's get this released ... Read More
Rating: - Lack of DVD is irritating, stupid and borderline criminal
Bankruptcy, schmankruptcy - when will this be released? Apart from Laurel and Hardy, this is the funniest movie ever made. There are greater movies that need to be released, there are ones that I personally want even more to be released, but based upon the combination of quality and the quantity of potential demand, the lack of this one has to be the most insane. My votes for the best parts in the movie go to Bob & Ray, then Bob Newhart and then Edward Everett Horton - but everyone is great. ... Read More
Rating: - I really want this one to come out on DVD!
I saw this movie several times in the 80's when it ran repeatedly on a local station over one summer. I thought it was going to be dumb, but it turned out to be one of the most intelligently made comedies/satires ever. It's not obvious "in-your-face" antics like stuff you'll see today, but layer upon layer of subtleties. By the end of the summer we were dropping everything not to miss the next showing. This is a classic, and it gets better with repeated viewings. With all the junk out there, why isn't ... Read More
