Depends on where you buy the disc as I dont think more than a handfull of films were released in the UK as combo's but they were quite common in the US.
Off the top of my head I know that Superman Returns was released in the US as a combo.

I think series 1 of the BBC Robin Hood was a combo as well. I also have the US Children Of Men as a combo and my player doesn't like it.

US versions of 16 Blocks, Superman Returns, Firewall, Hot Fuzz, The Lake House, No Reservations and Accepted were combos. The others were always single sided AFAIK.
As said above, combos were a rarity over here (TV boxsets excepted), so if you find a UK version of the above discs then they should be single sided.

Are they specifically labeled Combo or something else to identify them or is it just pot luck ?
I did start collecting the A-Team discs and Knightriders but then I got a version that was double sided and have been scared to purchase anymore seasons.
