1.0 out of 5 stars my 2 cents, April 26, 2003

By 

Anita (Salt Lake City, UT USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Angel on My Shoulder (DVD)

This is a good story along the lines of "Here Comes Mr. Jordon", with a slight variation. But the DVD quality of the Gotham release is horrible. The picture quality is almost unwatchable and the un-even mono sound has a steady hissing all the way through the movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars GOOD QUALITY, April 25, 2004

This review is from: Angel on My Shoulder (DVD)

This VCI disc is good. The image is mostly crisp and clear, say above 90%. There are a few frames that are fuzzy and dull. There is no hissing or dropout in the sound. There is a comedy short with Leon Errol. It's image sound is also good.

As the other reviewers stated the story and acting are top-notch. Even on the short. I have one other VCI disc and there is a Leon Errol short on it. I had never heard of him. He is actually pretty funny.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stay Away From Passport - Large "PIP" Logo On Screen, April 19, 2006

Both Passport DVD's I've had the misfortune of viewing (this one & Plan 9 From Outer Space) have a large "PIP" logo on screen for the entire movie which is extremely distracting & unneccesary. For quality, get the Roan edition.
