The Film
 ***This is an A/V and Extras review only. For reviews on the movie from various critics, we recommend visiting HERE.*** "Magically turning rust into gold—that's just another day in the Gas Monkey Garage. Richard Rawlings and Aaron Kaufman search far and wide for dilapidated classics to resurrect from the rust pile, and this collection features some of the best: a 24-hour Jeep overhaul, a famous '63 Ford Falcon race car, a rare 1919 Nash, a 1931 Model A, and the holy grail of a '64 Mustang. Plus, there's a high-stakes auction purchases that leaves the crew no choice but to flip five cars in one week. Watch in awe at the unbelievable transformations of these exceptional finds when they're given a whole new life with a little Gas Monkey style." Episode Overview: 4.13: "Troll's Choice Rolls-Royce" (41:30) – "When Richard 'accidentally' buys $92K worth of cars at an auction, his bookkeeper sister insists he flip all five cars in one week. Some go more easily and profitably than others but it's a weirdly built Rolls Royce that even Aaron has a hard time fixing." 4.14: "Aaron's Falcon Racecar" (41:30) – "Aaron falls in love with and buys a famous '63 Ford Falcon racecar off Richard, but will the original owner be impressed by Aaron's Gas Monkey style? While Aaron's tied up in his passion project, Richard flips a 1919 Nash and an usually painted truck." 4.16: "Jacked-up Jeep" (41:30) – "Aaron and the Gas Monkey crew overhaul a Jeep in 24 hours to surprise a friend. Richard flips a funky gull-winged Bricklin. Daphne convinces a reluctant Richard to hire his nephew. Dennis and Richard argue over how best to sell their COPO Camaros." 5.01: "Chopped and Dropped Model A, Part 1" (41:30) – "Aaron and Richard find themselves a 1931 Model A to chop! What begins as a simple build quickly grows into a grand green machine. With less than a month to build this chromed out '60's show car from the ground up, Richard's wild plan may be too much." 5.02: "Chopped and Dropped Model A, Part 2" (41:28) – "When Richard snaps back to his senses, he puts the monkeys back on track since they must finish the '31 Chopped Model A in ten days. It doesn't go without a lot of strife. Meanwhile, Richard and Dennis argue over a holy grail find of a '64 ˝ Mustang."  
Video
Cinedigm's dual-layer DVD looks as good as the show can in SD since the videography is professional but not technically-exacting.  
Audio
No issues with the Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo track which cleanly renders the dialogue and occasional music. English Closed Captioning is available and may be helpful since this is a non-scripted show.  
Extras
There are no extras.  
Overall
I'm not particularly sure how many Fast N' Loud fans there are, or if they would even want full season sets, but this compilation of episodes from seasons four and five should probably provide a good introduction.
