Member Movie Reviews K. K. (GAMER) Reviewed on 7/25/2023... Road to Bali - A classic especially for those that live in the time era of this being made!
Movie ReviewsWorth it for the re-mastered My Favorite Brunette Rick L. Parrish | 03/27/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "There are four re-mastered films in this inexpensive collection: The aforementioned Brunette, Road to Rio, Road to Bali, and Son of Paleface. Some of Hope's funniest. The other movies are good copies. My personal favorite (My Favorite Brunette) outshines even my HD copy (yes a week after the death of HD-DVD was announced I got all excited when My Favorite Brunette turned up on my doorstep from Amazon a long ago pre-order arriving just after the funeral!). The HD transfer was a big disappointment especially in those early prison scenes. In this collection the restoration is the best that can be achieved with the original elements and long, long overdue. Seeing him mix it up with Peter Lorre is worth the price of admission alone. Normally with this kind of low-priced collection I am quite leary. This one transcends the genre in a couple of ways. The restored films are on two single-sided disks (thank heavens), two to a disc. The rest of the collection and there are plenty of gems there too are on the usual double-sided discs, but the case is well designed for individual discs and not too fragile if you're carefull. So I would recommend this collection to any serious Bob Hope fan on the strength of My Favorite Brunette alone but I don't have to because it's not bad on all counts and well worth the price." Finally a decent copy of My Favorite Brunette Boaz1969 | Somerville,MA | 06/17/2008 (5 out of 5 stars) "I bought this collection just for My Favoritye Brunette. One of Bob Hope's best movies and finally a version that is good enough to watch. For $8.99 you can't go wrong. Now I can only hope BCI remasters The Cat and the Canary (1939)." Excellent Value-Very good mix of Bob's movies Victor L. Hudson | San Diego, CA | 06/12/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "This has 10 Bob Hope movies and 4 are newly restored:
Road to Rio Road To Bali Son Of Paleface (with Roy Rogers and Trigger) My Favorite Brunette My girlfriend didn't realize that Bob was this funny with his one-liners in Road to Bali. Even if you don't like all the movies in this collection I would still suggest buying this as it is less expensive than a movie matinee and considering the era I would say at least there are 3 of the movies that really stand out. Good quality DVD's and nice packaging." |
