What's not to like?
How can you go wrong with two Harrison Ford DVDs for virtually no money? You can't, that's how. At least, as long as, like me, you could care less about pan and scan or full screen or any of that jazz.OK, OK, I have to admit that, although the plotting of Presumed Innocent is cracker jack, what's with the music? John Williams really mushed up what was shaping up to be a taut courtroom thriller with a flaccid, trance-inducing score that detracts from the story. Just watch this movie and think how much better it would've been with a more muscular, tension-filled score. Plus, it's got Raul Julia being supercool as the suave defense attorney.And Frantic: I love it. Harrison Ford is just great in this. I love how he uses the commanding and imperious gestures and arrogant finger-snapping of a internationally respected heart surgeon, and I love his impatience throughout. There's something about his fish-out-of-water thing that he does during his dance with Michelle Seigneur that is so compelling. It's true, Seigneur isn't going to win any acting awards for this one, but at least there's some sense of honesty and integrity in what she's doing. I love the slow, deliberate pacing throughout and I love the look of the film, with all those washed out blues and gray and whatever-the-hell color Harrison Ford's suits are. I've got to agree with other reviews of Frantic, though: the more you find out about why Ford's wife was kidnapped, the less interesting it gets.

Two HARRISON FORD thrillers..a great double feature package
WE mostly think of Harrison Ford in an action-adventure movie, or in a role fighting, crooks, robbers, spies,..mostly bad guys. PRESUMED INNCOCENT is my favorite of the two in this twin set. It will have you guessing to the very last minute. I think it was a great film. However Ford's X-rated one night stand scenes ,are pretty wild,the young lady shows up murdered the next morning and he has to prove he didn't do it....so don't have this playing with the kids around for more reasons then one. You'll see what I mean. FRANTIC,is a frantic paced entertainer. But, nothing like.. PRESUMED INNOCENT. Hitchcock would have loved it.

More info about this issue
Yes it's a 2 disc set unlike the other Warners Double Feature titles I've bought that are a one DVD flipper disc. Haven't screened the movies yet but from the back cover it says that Frantic is full frame with no other info. Presumed Innocent is a flipper with fullscreen on one side and 1.85 widescreen on the other plus the package says it has the trailer..

Pleasing
I already owned these two movies, but they were in the "snap cases" and I am replacing all my dvd's in my collection that are in those types of cases. The double feature pretty much ensures that I'll get a "keep case". Harrison Ford is one of my favorite actors, and Frantic was okay to own. But I really loved the Presumed Innocent movie. It was suspense filled, and I never saw the ending coming. Great movie. Delivery was on time and in perfect condition.

NO CAPTIONS
We already owned a copy of Frantic and a copy of Presumed Innocent, but the DVD Frantic had no subtitles (captions) and I was looking for a DVD with them because of my husband's loss of hearing. On the Main Screen it says CAPTIONS but there is no place to access them. The only choices to click are Play and Scenes. This is the second time we have ordered one like this - same format appearance on the Main Screen. I wish I could figure out how to avoid making this same mistake again. VERY DISAPPOINTED

Thriller Double Feature FRANTIC AND PRESUMED INNOCENT
I am a great fan of Harrison Ford BUT...FRANTIC was a mishmash of nonsence involving drugs and unbelievable characters including Ford. Ford's character came off as pretty pathetic and the supporting roles were without merit (no wonder, the dialogue was silly). Not a keeper for me. PRESUMED INNOCENT was carried by Ford and watchable. The plot is about Ford who is investigating a murder when a series of events puts him under suspician of committing the crime himself. Worth watching once, only because of Harrison Ford. Just my opinion - others may like it. I can't remember FRANTIC being in the cinama houses at all. I am sure it was paired with PRESUMED INNOCENT on dvd to make some money. Sorry folks!
