Editorial Review:
Chevy Chase is at his hilarious best as Irwin "Fletch" Fletcher, a newspaper reporter who changes his identity more often than his underwear. While working on a drug expose, he stumbles onto a scam that gets him up to his byline in murder, police corruption and forbidden romance. For this ace newsman, it'll be the story of the year, if he can only stay alive till the deadline. Fletch is a must-own comedy-thriller classic. Just don't call him "Irwin"!

Description of Fletch [HD DVD]:
Gregory McDonald's lightweight mystery novel about an undercover newspaper reporter cracking a police drug ring is transformed by screenwriter Andrew Bergman (Blazing Saddles, and writer/director of The Freshman and Honeymoon in Vegas) into a fairly sarcastic and occasionally very funny Chevy Chase vehicle. Enjoyment of the film pivots on whether you find Chase's flippant, smart-ass brand of verbal humor funny, or merely egocentric. If you don't like Chase, there's really no one else worth watching (Geena Davis is sadly underused). Chase seems born to play I.M. "Fletch" Fletcher, a disillusioned investigative reporter whose cynicism and detached view on life mirrors the actor's understated approach to comedy. Fletcher offers Chase the opportunity to adopt numerous personas, as his job requires numerous (bad) physical disguises, and much of film's humor centers on the ridiculous idea that any of these phony accents or bad hairpieces could fool anyone. These not-so-clever disguises are put to use when Fletch becomes involved in the film's smart but continually self-mocking two-part mystery. As well as trying to gather drug-smuggling evidence against the LAPD for a long-overdue newspaper story, a rich and apparently terminally ill stranger also offers Fletch a large payoff to kill him. While the film does a fairly good job juggling both of these plots, not to mention tossing in a love interest as well, it's subservient, for better or worse, to Chase's memorable one-liners and disguises. Followed by two forgettable sequels that lack both the original's wit and Chase's attention span. --Dave McCoy

Fletch [HD DVD] Reviews:
Best movies ever!
2009-10-18 - Theses are the funniest movies ever made. I have seen them countless times and they are still hilarious to me. Product was as described and in pristine conditon.

A classic finally back on DVD. But the "Jane Doe" edition?
2009-08-28 - Come on, just release the DVD and save the silly "Edition" names. The worst offender must surely be the upcoming "Those Aren't Pillows Edition" of Planes, Trains and Automobiles. yikes.

Still, I can't *not* give this classic 5 stars. Who doesn't know (and repeat!) lines from the movie. Chevy at his best: allowed to ad-lib at will.

A Total Clasic Combo!
2009-08-25 - Totally worth buying if you can appreciate physical, smart a** comedy and laughing out loud! After you've watch it 2 or 3+ times, it keeps on getting even better! I just wish they kept making more Fletch movies!

Excellent
2009-06-02 - For anybody who enjoys subtle and at times not subtle banter humor this is good. Chevy Chase emerged from SNL with a comedy of his own and made the best of it.

Fletch Collection
2009-05-25 - awesome collector's edition set! I wasnt expecting the 2 seperate discs or the hysterical Fletch rotating disguise case. I definitely recommend!
