Funny movie,awful print January 21, 2002

By Garry T Marcus

Format:DVD

The dvd of this is a real let-down.The picture quality is really washed out.If you can put up with this,Hope is on good form,the story is above average and Jack Benny's brief appearance is a hoot.Shame about the transfer,though...

Bob Hope at his best! October 7, 2003

By A Customer

Format:DVD

Mr. Hope stars as Freddie Hunter, a reporter who is chaperoning a troop of scouts aboard a ocean liner. The scouts see it as their duty to save Freddie from himself by making sure he doesn't smoke, drink or enjoy the hug of a woman "other than his Mom". The fact that the head boy of the troop is the son of Freddie's boss doesn't help Freddie when he decides to flirt with the Duchess Alexandria. But women are the least of Freddie's troubles. There is a killer on board. This killer decides to frame Freddie for his murderous deeds. Fortunately, there is a detective on board, hot on the trail of the true murderer, but wait, Freddie discovers the body of the murdered detective. How will Freddie prove his innocence? This is an entertaining film for the whole family. It also stars Rhonda Fleming, George Reeves, Jim Backus and Roland Young. So grab the popcorn, dim the lights and enjoy this wonderful movie!.

The Brentwood version is of very poor quality. I love Bob Hope movies, but I'm sorry I spent the money on this one!

Alas, Bob Hope's reputation suffered towards the end of his career due to too many unfunny TV specials and lackluster films. Read more

GREAT film BAD copy

The title of my review says it all, I love Bob Hope and this is one of his best films, lots of fun and a little campy mystery on a foggy ocean voyage. Read more

Plenty of Hope chuckles; visually disappointing

"The Great Lover" has Bob Hope back in top form, tossing out funny one-liners against a backdrop of menace, a premise which worked well for his vein & cowardly comic character. Read more

GOOD HOPE!!!!!

A great Bob Hope film featuring Roland Young. Unfortunately, these Brentwood Hope Collection films are just mostly beat-up TV prints with splices, etc. Read more
