Format:VHS Tape
Joshua Tree is one of the best action movies ever. A real shame it's not on DVD in the UK. Why? I do not know. The Region 1 version is in fullscreen and has terrible sound because it's a direct port from the VHS! But at least it was uncut. This UK video version is highly censored to the point of obscurity.
The only version of this film in widescreen is the 2.35:1 anamorphic French DVD version, which also contains a better soundtrack.
A truly amazing and supercool film that is sadly not getting the treatment it deserve for the home entertainment market. We can only keep our fingers crossed.

This is a typical Lundgren film not to clever but great to watch. Some John woo-esque action scenes and a quality car chase add to the enjoyment and lundgren puts in one of his better performances, not a Dolph film most have heard of but one of his best.

TERRIBLE DVD OF A GREAT FILM
21 July 2000
Format:DVD
Joshua Tree was one of the best action movies of the '90s and Artisan (who can usually be relied upon to make awesome DVDS) have given it a terrible transfer.
All we get on this very poor and lazy release is a flat and static main menu, Dolby-Surround, a fullscreen trailer and THE ENTIRE MOVIE IN FULLSCREEN. UGH!
This film is supposed to be in 2.35:1 but instead Artisan, for some reason, released it in a mutilated 1.33:1. This is not right. The directors vision of the film is the one that should be respected and seen by everyone. I advise you to wait for a more definative release of Joshua Tree (not Army of One). Joshua Tree is the REAL title.
I really do hope that Artisan change their minds about this DVD and release a better version soon. Widescreen is the most important feature of ANY DVD released. But it is not present here so save your cash for a future release.

FULLSCREEN SHOULD BE ILLEGAL ON DVD
28 Sep 2000
Format:DVD
Normally I would reccomend this DVD to you. But only in widescreen. Artisan have butchered an excellent action film. Leave this edition be.

One of Lundgren's better movies
7 Dec 1999
I thought this was a good entertaining movie. I wish there was more hand to hand combat, since Lundgren is specialized, but overall it was good. I got double my money's worth. Non stop action. George Segal was excellent as well as a corrupt cop.
