1.0 out of 5 stars Some Great Movies in a Poor Quality Package April 17, 2011

By Steve Douglas TOP 1000 REVIEWER

Format:DVD

There will always be a few duds in any actor's resume but Clint Eastwood only seems to be getting better with every picture. The problem with buying this specific collection is the absolutely horrible quality of most of the discs. Several of the movies, 'Any Which Way You Can' is just one, wouldn't play or stalled mid movie on 3 different DVD players. The Dirty Harry movies were full of video grain and there was very little use of the surrounds in a home theater system. The fact that these movies, but for a couple of exceptions, are all two sided on the discs, one on one side and another on the opposite side, probably contributes to the poor quality. Additionally, the packaging of these DVDs makes it necessary for you to grab the outside of the disc, leaving fingerprints and body oils, over the disc itself. I take great care in how I handle my DVDs but getting around touching the flat side of the disc is impossible. I sat through every disc that would play except for Madison County before I returned the collection to Amazon. Where was 'Play Misty for Me'? Gladly would trade that for the absurd Kelly's Heros and while 'Letters from Iwo Jima' is included, where is its sister movie? Who picked these to be in the collection and why from such lousy masters? The whole experience was frustrating. Glad that Amazon was so cooperative about my returning it for a refund. Should they come out with a properly packaged, Blu Ray collection, I would happily purchase it.
Hopefully, this review has been of some help to you in determining your purchase, hope I am on the correct path with a review of the transfer quality as opposed to providing plot summaries.
Thanks

11/29/12 Was just told that Warner's has replaced the packaging design. Do not know if this is true or not as yet. If so, that's great. However, that still leaves discs that do not play, double sided discs and this package is not available on Blu Ray, yet.

3.0 out of 5 stars The good the bad and the lousy> February 15, 2011

By roger broughton

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase

As an Eastwood fan i can't put down the content or the price. A lot of gems like "White Hunter Black Heart " Honky Tonk Man " shows just how good an actor Eastwood really is . Great! However the movie disks are all double sided. They re inclosed in a box set that makes it impossible not to smug the disk before playing them. When you open the box set, the carboard book is a bunch of bound together single pockets. You are required to pinch the exposed disk area and pull it out from a very tight pocket.( No paper sleeves!) This of course will smudge both surfaces.

I also question the resolution of the films. If the dvds are packaged in such a manner, is the copy resolution as high as the single disks we have been buying for years? (more on this later) I will keep the set but I will carefully back up all of them and play those.

If you are expecting a large box set for you book case where you can clearly and safely pull out the film you need well that's not going to happen. This is a poorly if not cheaply thought out compilation that due to poor concept packaging does not serve the consumer on the long run if he (or she ) is not carefull. I would have paid more for single disks in proper cases. C'mon Clint your fans deserve better!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars I'm not sure who this is marketed for/to....I am not a happy owner. February 16, 2010

By Richardson TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

First things first, I greatly admire Clint Eastwood as an actor and director ,and he's been the major film star of my baby boomer lifetime.

I just picked this set up so I am reviewing as an OWNER , not someone who has read the contents and wants to prattle on about Clints career at Warners. I was sad to find that the discs are the notorious Flippers (a movie on each side) instead of the far more stable single sided discs. Given that many of these movies are already available for under 10 bucks each This is still a cheap way to buy all of his movies for anyone that is that big a fan but who doesn't already own them.. I'm a bit confused as to who they are marketing to? I am a big fan and own many of these but thought it might be a great way to house films in a smaller package and looked forward to the documentary and the book etc..

Extras.... the documentary is only a 21 minute "teaser" for the real one due this summer and NOT 16x9 but letterboxed 4:3 wow..that's lame. They DO give you a web address and a code to get the whole documentary mailed out in the summer of 2010...but when you go to it, it says that address either doesn't yet exist or has other troubles and come back later. Who knows what that is about...have so many people bought this and tried to redeem that their server crashed...not likely, probably just more corporate stupidity and "I thought you had set that up" finger pointing.

Book...is really a big nothing..tease for the real book in stores, and the pouch with a few photos ,again nothing special.

The Films...As I said, being that these are unstable "flipper discs" I am hesitant to get rid of the DVDs of the films I have and unlike some other multi disc sets I've recently purchased these will be scratched in removing and replacing for play...in fact you can NOT remove them without putting your hands on the surfaces of the discs (never recommended).

Bottom line, This isn't really something for a true fan who would be better off it seems only buying the Clint films one wants in either DVD or Blu-Ray. There is NOTHING here for true fans but for somebody who owns virtually none of his movies and suddenly wants to spend over a hundred bucks (that seems a mutually exclusive notion) its a good value.

Were this released on Blu-Ray....I would be very happy and they would need not deal with flippers due to the storage capacity of Blu-Ray....but we see no such release in the near future.

To summarize...I'd stay away if you are a big fan, own the movies of CLints you already like and think this is some sort of "Cadillac" version..its more of a Pinto.
