I did buy the DVD. I actually did try to check the reviews first, but I couldn't find any, naturally. I knew I was taking a chance, but I hoped for the best. Lesson learned.
I waited for years for this movie to come out...and it's non-anamorphic?!?!? In 2008?!?!?
I agree!! I missed this when it was shown on TCM recently, and would love to have a DVD of it.

According to some reviewers on Amazon, there may be missing scenes on these discs. Does anyone own them, and can confirm this? I'd hate to buy them, only to find they are edited in some way.
You might be right, but it's presented in a 1.78:1 ratio on the DVD...
I just got the DVD of Fail Safe... it is widescreen, but sadly not anamorphic. I noticed that the back cover did not mention it being 'enhanced for widescreen', but was hoping this was just an oversight. It was not. Why are studios...
I agree. The transfer is excellent, and the film is the most important thing. I do recommend buying it, if you like the movie...and I do...Maggie Smith is terrific!!
Fox has also credited 'Robert Neame' with being the director on the back of the box. I noticed that too. Pretty shoddy work for a special edition.
