Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Poor transfer, weak movie
It's a little shocking to see that studios are still releasing non-anamorphic transfers of widescreen movies this late in the game. But I suppose with this movie, it was non-anamorphic or nothing at all, since this doesn't seem like a DVD that's likely to sell millions of copies. I assume that the transfer comes from an earlier laserdisc version or something.
At any rate, it's nice to be able to see Altman's full widescreen images, even in a poor transfer, but the truth is that this ... Read More
Rating:  - Fun Unknown Altman
Mostly unknown Altman that is a whole lot of fun, featuring a great Dennis Hopper working off of his Apocalypse Now character.
Rating:  - Altman was brave, and never got the credit.
This is a freakin' funny film. If you have even half a sense of humor, see it.
Rating:  - I will leave it to the critics to comment on the film itself.
All I want to say is that I can barely believe that no one has
commented on the atrocious transfer on the DVD. It looks like
a bad video on a TV screen glimpsed through a dirty window. It

This may not be one of Altman's best, but surely it deserves
better treatment than this, if only for those of us who want
to be able to view this auteur's complete body of work. Whoever
produced this DVD ... Read More
Rating: - Repeat Viewings Bring Out the Brilliance
O.C. and Stiggs is a pure gem. The other reviews give you background, but what needs to be emphasized is that this film is filled with Robert Altman's special layered dialogue. O.C. and Stiggs can be watched a dozen times and still the viewer will notice some little tidbit of cleverness that wasn't obvious the first time. Do yourself a favor and buy this film so you can watch it again whenever the mood strikes you.
