BB 2 for $20 recommendations

Hello Everyone

The recent BB flyer has some good 2 for $20 deals but "my-oh-my what to buy?" syndrome has set in. The wife wants "The Last of the Mohicans" which I like as well. Have yet to see "We Were Soldiers" which has been given great reviews. Same with the "K-19 Widowmaker" and "High Crimes" except I haven't found much feed back on it. The deal on "The Hunted" and "Double Jeopardy" both for $25 seems tempting as well. Any suggestions?

My Opinion

We Were Soldiers is an excellent movie, I would recommend getting it. K19 is also very good and I own both of these. A note on K19 though, its more drama than action and it's a "love it or hate it" type of movie. I think those are the best bets, High Crimes is okay but not really worth buying.

Last of The Mohicans was OK. Nothing to right home about.

We We Soldiers is the best from the list...hands down.

After that I'd recommend K-19 Widowmaker.

Last week's deal was better. Too bad I didn't get a chance to get to the store.

Those deals are usually also available at BestBuy.com.

Although, for some reason, the horrible new version of the Best Buy website wouldn't let me order ANYTHING when I tried last week. I e-mailed them about the error, but I've yet to receive any kind of response. I guess my money just isn't important enough to those corporate ghouls. Oh well, their loss.

I heard good things about We Were Soldiers.

I honestly HATED K-19, it was one of the most BORING movies ever to me. NO action at all, lots of drama....just seemed to drag on.

I'm not seeing Last of the Mohicans as one of the movies for this offer on the BB webpage. Where did you guys see this being offered. I'd love to pick it up along with Sling Blade. We Were Soldiers is good.

Don't go for the Hunted. It is run of the mill, and you will end up watching it once.

"The Last Of The Mohicans" appears in the BB Sunday flyer in the 2 For $20 group.
