Editorial Reviews

Tom Hanks lights up the screen in this hilarious collection of three of his most popular comedies: The Money Pit, The 'Burbs and Dragnet. Available together for the first time on DVD, this must-own collector's set features some of Hollywood's most well-known stars including Dan Aykroyd, Shelley Long and Carrie Fisher. See one of the world's most talented actors at his comedic peak in Tom Hanks: Comedy Favorites Collection. The Money Pit Walter and Anna (Tom Hanks and Shelly Long) make the leap into real estate, but encounter mayhem when their dream home starts falling apart before their eyes. The 'Burbs Ray Peterson (Tom Hanks) is just a normal guy living a normal life, or so he thinks, until he spends a week at home next to his new, and very strange, next-door neighbors. Dragnet Just the facts: Dan Aykroyd is Tom Hanks' unlikely partner as the two set out to solve a pattern of unusual robberies and, along the way, encounter an oddball assortment of obstructions to justice.

This review is from: The Tom Hanks Comedy Favorites Collection (The Money Pit / The Burbs / Dragnet) (DVD)

This is a great DVD. 3 great movies on one DVD and one great price.
2 out of 3 of these are at the top of my favorites list, and no matter
how many times I've seen them I still enjoy them.

The Money Pit. Anyone who has bought an older home and discovered what
a fixer upper is or leads to, can really relate to this movie. They can
probably relate to everything except having the money to do such a fixup, and hopefully most people have not had relationships with someone as shallow and conceited as the meistro, the wife's former boyfriend.

Next comes The Burbs. What happens when you don't know how to take a
vacation anymore and all your friends also have lost that ability and do not know what to do with themselves!

The answer, Become your own Neighborhood Watch group.
Just hope that you don't have neighbors like the Klopaks.

Lastly Dragnet, where Tom teams up with Dan Aykroid as Joe Friday's son.
A great comic redo of a show that maybe was a little too serious, a
little tongue in cheek, and yet had everyone watching.

For a few good nights of something to give you a laugh and let you know
things could always be worse, pick up this DVD!

This review is from: The Tom Hanks Comedy Favorites Collection (The Money Pit / The Burbs / Dragnet) (DVD)

This is a great set of movies,includes The Money Pit on disc one and The Burbs and Dragnet on disc 2,I found this great 2-dvd set to be quite the bargain,I got it on sale for 8.99,much cheaper then buying the titles seperately,plus it saves space on my bookshelf to boot since it's in a space saving single sized DVD case!,These are some of my favorite comedies starring the one and only Tom Hanks in his earlier years,great supporting casts too!!! Very Recommended! A+
