2.0 out of 5 stars Classis East Side Kids move., December 10, 2005

This review is from: East Side Kids - Million Dollar Kid (DVD)

This is in reference to the Alpha Video version.

This is a classic east side kid's move where the kids help out the poor little rich boy who gets himself in a jamb. If you like the East side kids, like I do, you'll like this movie. The DVD and sound quality are terrible. You can barely see the picture at some points and the sound is scratchy to say the least. It appears it was just copied from the old films. I guess you can't expect too much for the price. There is a re-mastered copy of this video by Digiview Productions so make sure you buy that version. I haven't seen it yet but it has to be better than this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars The East Side Kids help find the mugger., March 19, 2004

By 

James McDonald (California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: East Side Kids - Million Dollar Kid (DVD)

Cousin Herbie (Al Stone) joins the gang. Gabriel Dell and friends beat up a rich older man (Herbert Hayes). The East Side Kids come to his safety. Grateful, he gives them his business card to call him tomorrow. Huntz notices the rich man mistakenly left his wallet behind with nearly a thousand dollars inside. They truly decide to return it to the man. Suddenly, the police catch the boys with the dough and down to the station they go. They call the rich man, Cortland and it's all straightened out. He invites the boys to his home to help them with gymnasium equipment they need. With the help of the East Side Kids (Leo Gorcey, Huntz Hall, Bobby Stone, Billy Benedict, Dave Durrand, Jimmy Strand, Bob Gorman) and Cortland's son, Roy (Johnnie Duncan) they will catch Gabriel Dell the mugger. Bobby Stone was not credited, but I got him here. Leo Gorcey's father, Bernard Gorcey, makes an appearance as a telegram man. The next six films: Follow The Leader (1944), Block Busters (1944), Bowery Champs (1944), Docks of New York (1945), Mr. Muggs Rides Again (1945), Come Out Fighting (1945).

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the better Alpha presentations., February 24, 2005

This review is from: East Side Kids - Million Dollar Kid (DVD)

This Alpha/Gotham DVD is one of their better presentations. The picture is fairly sharp, the contrast workable, and the sound is clear. There are some minor video glitches indicating tape wear in the master video tape, but for $7.99 it is well worth it. The film used to make the tape does have lines & splices, but I did not find them distracting.
