Avis sur le produitCharlie Chan 3-Film Collection (DVD, 1945)

Best to buy to complete collections

A long time ago I started buying the Chan movies starting with Warner Oland. Then I continued with the Sidney Toler versions and now Roland Winters. There is a marked fall off in quality, and a reliance on comic relief that is totally offensive in our day and age. Yes, you had Stephen Fetchit in a very early Oland film, but by the time of Mantan Moreland and Willie Best you had blackface comedy performed by real blacks. Then, again, the sons of Chan seem to grow more stupid and incompetent as the series went on. Early on, Lee Chan (Keye Luke) was an Olympic athlete (suspension of belief!), later we was just another stooge. Meanwhile, the Chan figure seemed to grow fatter, and by the time of Winters he was a Royal Caribbean cruise ship on screen, very stolid, seemingly all knowing, but hard to move in any direction. Anyway, this collection is a good way to complete a collection, but don't expect any great movie mystery in any of these films. These are time wasters, entertaining in a limited way, bu not likely that a brick will be thrown at the TV while watching. So maybe a midnight movie or two or three when you have insomnia?Lire l'avis complet...

Nice Set

I bought this to complete my Charlie Chan collection.
Not sure why they decided to release this disc this way but I am glad that they did as now all surviving films from the original Charlie Chan are series are now on DVD. I was expecting a purple DVDr as this is on the Archive Collection but it is an actual pressed DVD. The video and audio are of the same quality as the previous restored films in the earlier DVD sets. Although thin on extras it is the films you are after, and the are worth getting if you are a fan.Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent Charlie Chan Collection

These 3 movies wrapped up my collection of Charlie Chan movies except for some early titles that will probably never be produced on dvd. The one movie of this collection I have watched so far has excellent production and is a very nice quality film.Lire l'avis complet...
