When your wife allows you to choose the dvd to watch.. pick this one.. hehe you get 4 exiting movies. Hope your wife doesn't buy the "Emotional Romantics: 4 film favorites" set.

WARNER's EXTREME ACTION offers four examples of early to mid 1990s action films, including two by a couple of the genre's biggest stars: Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

SYNOPSES--

ERASER-- Witness Protection specialist with unorthodox ways is set up as the "bad guy" by corrupt co-workers. Arnold benefits from an excellent supporting cast.

THE LAST BOY SCOUT-- Ex-Secret Servicman turned detective buddies up with a former football QB whose girlfriend is murdered; a woman the private eye was hired to protect. Authored by "Lethal Weapon" scripter Shane Black, the film's last scene suggests a sequel-- perhaps the lack of on-screen chemistry between Willis and Wayans precluded that from happening.

PASSENGER 57-- Terrorist and his cohorts hijack a plane carrying an undercover security expert. (Originally intended as a Stallone vehicle.)

POINT OF NO RETURN-- A female drug addict condemed to die for a violent crime is recruited as a government assassin.
