The Tuxedo, which stars Jackie Chan, is quite a departure for the actor. In the film Chan plays Jimmy Tong, a cab driver, who gets hired to chauffeur super spy Clark Devlin(Jason Isaacs). But as Devlin is about to fall into unconsciousness he tells Jimmy to put on the tuxedo and take over for him. Jimmy agrees, but he doesn't know what's in store for him once he does. Joined by a rookie CSA agent named Del Blaine(Jennifer Love Hewitt) Jimmy must stop Diedrich Banning(Ritchie Coster) from ridding the world of its drinking water. But why would he want to get rid of the world's drinking water? So everyone would have to buy his bottled water, which by the way causes dehydration.
Available from Dreamworks, The Tuxedo is available in both fullscreen and widescreen editions and comes with an english 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround audio track, an english 5.1 DTS Surround audio track, an english 2 channel Dolby Surround audio track and a french 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround audio track. Subtitles are also included in english, french and spanish.
The special features include the HBO special "Tailor Made For Jackie Chan", deleted and extended scenes, a blooper reel, cast and filmmakers information, production notes and the film's theatrical trailer.
HBO's "Tailor Made For Jackie Chan" is the film's promotional making of featurette. At just thirteen minutes however it's a bit short. Like all other making of featurettes it contains cast and crew interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, but because of the short lenght the interviews with the cast are mainly about the characters that they play in the film.
The disc also features nine deleted scenes, including one with James Brown performing the song "Sex Machine" and one where a man is drowned in a limo, three extended scenes, an extra 7:41 of bloopers(which aren't even funny), cast and filmmakers information, production notes and the film's theatrical trailer.
The Tuxedo is not one of Jackie Chan's best films. And while the film has been beautifully reproduced more time could of been spent working on the discs menus. What I mean by this is that everything is displayed on the main page. Instead of having a special features section all the special features are listed on the main page. And as for the audio selection and scene selection they simply pop up on the same page instead of bringing you to a special section. The film isn't great, the special features aren't bad but there could be more and the menus could definetely use some improvements. Overall though I'd recommend renting The Tuxedo instead of buying it.
