5.0 out of 5 stars Still another mega set of already great stuff, August 4, 2008

This review is from: Agatha Christie's Poirot: The Definitive Collection (DVD)

Well for the benefit of the woman who asked me to explain the difference in the Poirot collections back when the Acorn sets of the "original series" came out, now she and others who waited can complete their collection and save space at the same time. This indeed is all 12 feature length episodes released to date that were shown here on A&E. For those of you bought them like me in either the smaller sets of 4 and/or individuals, their is nothing new here, but at least this set like the 2 Acorn sets (1 of the hour length shows, the other of the 2 hour ones both of which aired "here" on PBS and A&E later on) will take up less space on your shelf. Since nothing new was added, I will be content with what I have, if by now 7 years after they started you have not gotten any of the A&E ONLY aired stories now is your chance to get them all together. 12 for less than $100 is most definitely a bargain.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Transfer Quality, February 26, 2009

If you are considering purchasing this Definitive Collection, you are probably alread very familiar with the wonderful Poirot. So this review just addresses the DVD picture quality, which is excellant. In the past, some of A&Es collections have not been of the best transfer quality, but I was happily surprised by this one that it is every bit as good, perhaps even better, than the Acorn collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great collection, but buy the european version if you can play it, August 14, 2009

Great collection as always. However in the US version (Region 1) the format it 4:3 Full Screen, which means the picture has been cropped from the original European version (Region 2) which was shot in 16:9 Wide-screen. If you are into cinematography this is a big deal and sometimes the cropping is pretty awful. It still great TV though!
