In essence these programs work much the same way and use similar principles to handle video files. However they differ when it comes to supporting different video formats and additional features.
One of the best video cutters these days is VirtualDub which is closely followed by similarly powerful and user-friendly Avidemux. With these two you do need anything else when it comes to cutting movies apart.
VirtualDub handles most of the popular video formats such as avi, divx and mpg but not Matroska which Avidemux handles without problems. However VirtualDub sports user-friendly and simple interface with menu bar we know from Windows XP.
Cutting video file is a simple process of opening video inside the software like in any media player. Beneath a ruler appears with a movable slider. Cutting a scene from opened video is as simple as moving slider to preferred part and marking it as point A and than choosing another point B. Space between the two points is than highlighted and is prepared to be cut, pasted, deleted or moved to another spot.
However the process sounds simple underneath is a lot of complicated video editing going on and every now and than you may get a warning about slight inconsistencies such as inappropriately aligned sound with video etc. Therefore my advice for the best experience is to use full processing mode both in audio and video to avoid such issues. Further to save some space you may want to use compression from the same menu.

I used to use Avidemux which in my experience supports more video formats but VirtualDub is definitely a good one too.
VirtualDub is great (and so free), I've been using it for years... recommended !
You can try to use VidCrop. It's prog for crop video and also you can use zoom)It's helps me alot.)
