Allan Moyle's drama about a high-school pirate radio maverick, Pump Up the Volume comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, and is preferable in every way to the standard full-frame image. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include trailers, and filmographies for the cast and crew. This is a fine disc from New Line.

40 Days and 40 Nights, a film that is probably better than it has a right to be, comes to DVD with some nice results. The image, which is framed at the original aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is anamorphic, is surprisingly strong. Colors are rather vivid and detailed while blacks are well represented. The lack of any distracting elements really shows here. The sound, which is a 5.1 English Dolby Digital track, is nothing to get excited about, but is still adequate for this kind of film. Dialogue is easy to understand while effects and music are not too overwhelming. As for extras, they are not extensive. This Miramax disc only includes a teaser trailer, and more importantly, a commentary track from director Michael Lehmann, producer Michael London, and screenwriter Robert Perez. They bounce off each other, joking, commenting, and analyzing their final product. If there is any complaint about this track, it's that they tend to blend together vocally and you can't tell who is who. It may not be the best commentary, but there is still plenty to gain from it. Overall, a nice effort. Maybe not an outstanding disc in all respects, but one that will probably please fans enough.
