2.0 out of 5 stars Stick with the Roan Group releases, April 14, 2004

This review is from: Roy Rogers - Cowboy Classics (DVD)

Having purchased Vintage's version of "39 Steps" [Montage of Mysteries, along with "Rich and Strange" and "Young and Innocent"], and having been satisfied with 2 of the three transfers on that DVD, I decided to take a chance on their Roy Rogers release. While watchable, it is clear not a lot of care was given in transferring these movies. Some of the text on the opening credits is so out of focus it can't be read.

My recommendation....stick with the Roan Group releases (Volumes 1-3).

[Also, avoid the truncated "Happy Trails Theatre" releases by Good Times.]

2.0 out of 5 stars Rather disappointing, January 23, 2005

This review is from: Roy Rogers - Cowboy Classics (DVD)

The poor quality of the film transfers were rather distracting. It made it look like the briteness setting on my TV was too high. Also, 3 out of 4 of these movies are edited versions. Home in Oklahoma was the only movie to be full length. Carson City Kid looks to be missing about 4 minutes. Yellow Rose of Texas has 13 minutes missing, The Cowboy and the Seniorita is missing 23 minutes. Most of what was edited were songs. Unfortunately, no run time information was available on Amazon. The price was pretty good for 4 movies, and if you've never seen Roy in action, it's a cheap way to do so.
