Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a really nice set that would make a perfect stocking stuffer for anyone who loved the movies back in the day. It's 20 movies on 4 discs. Run times range from 52-72 minutes.
The digital restoration is very extensive and they clearly had some poor stock to work from. They look very clean, but as is typical of extensive restoration there is some reduction in resolution at times. Sometimes you can see a slight blur where the old scratches are that were repaired -and there are many. Some reels are pretty clear while others are a bit more blurry but nothing is intolerable in my opinion.
The loss of resolution is most noticable in the darkest scenes. There are many dark scenes where it's clear there wasn't enough visual information to restore it to full light.
Despite everything, the movies are very watchable. My mother who saw all these movies every Saturday for a nickel was very happy, as I expect most people of that generation would be with these discs.
Overall, the resolution is slightly better than VHS tape, but much lower than a typical, modern DVD. The sound was only very occasionally muddy and is really pretty good for the most part. They've also got all the sound at a pretty consistent volume so there are no extreme changes in volume.
Considering the very economical price, I'd say the set is well worth what you pay. I'd be a little disappointed if it were an expensive set, but it's OK for the money. If you're tempted, I say go for it. You won't be sorry. You get the stories and the characters just fine and that's what's important.
