3 out of 5 stars Hit and miss quality.......2007-05-17

This final installment in this series seems more geared towards completists and serious fans instead of new or casual fans. Of the six films included, only half of them are actually A&C movies, all of them from the very end of their movie career (though at least they're of noticeably better quality than a lot of the turkeys on Volume 3). The other three films are documentaries, none of which are particularly ground-breaking; 'The World of A&C' in particular is awful. And though this was originally released as two flipper discs, the set I got had three one-sided discs, a big step up from the earlier problem-plagued double-sided DVDs all of these volumes were put out on. However, the menu on the first two discs hasn't been changed to reflect that, and still gives the impression that it's double-sided, what with asking the viewer to flip the disc over if s/he wants to watch the other film(s).

'A&C Meet Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde' (1953) is pretty good, probably the strongest of the three films on here, though it is slowed down a bit by a boring romantic subplot and an even more superfluous subplot about the suffragist movement in late 19th century England. Boris Karloff's Jekyll and Hyde character is also a bit one-dimensional, lacking the depth and emotional compellingness of other film portrayals of this famous dual character. Still, there are a lot of great moments and scenes in here, such as the scene in the wax museum, the search for the monster in the dressing rooms, and the chaos that ensues in both London and the police station when Lou's character (with the rather cringe-worthy name Tubby) turns into the monster at the same time that the real monster is on the loose.

'A&C Meet the Keystone Kops' (1955) is probably the weakest film on here, though I wouldn't go so far as to say it's one of their all-time worst. It feels more like a series of skits than a coherent whole, with each skit woven smoothly into the overall plot. Still, while not as inspired as their earlier classics, there is a lot of fun stuff here, such as the scene in the aeroplane, the scenes on the train, the early scenes where Bud is mistaken for Lou's abusive father, and the chase at the end. This film is also noteworthy because Bud's character was finally funny instead of being purely the straightman. He does a lot more physical comedy here than he ever did before; at least this development was better late than never.

'A&C Meet the Mummy' (1955) is actually pretty good for being their penultimate film, and their final film at Universal. I think it's rather better than its pretty dismal reputation, even though the boys are looking old and tired by this late point. There are a number of great scenes here, such as the hamburger-switching, the "take your pick" routine, and the three mummies running around in the Tomb of Klaris (though the real mummy doesn't look all that convincingly scary, just like someone wrapped in a bunch of bandages). Interestingly, Bud's character is billed as Peter Patterson and Lou's character is billed as Freddie Franklin in the credits, yet they call one another by their real names all throughout the film.

'A&C Meet the Monsters' is a brief mini-documentary a bit over a half-hour long, narrated by David Skal, and focusing on all of the horror spoofs they did in the late Forties and early Fifties. It's interesting enough, but could have been longer and covered more ground. 'A&C Meet Jerry Seinfeld' is the most interesting of the documentaries; it provides clips from their films, their tv show, and various appearances they made on other tv shows, home movies (a number of them in color), and a fair amount of historical background. Seinfeld's love of and enthusiasm for the team is palpable, but never crosses the line into fawning. It's always nice when a documentary is narrated by someone who actually has enthusiasm for the subject(s) instead of by someone who doesn't have much of an opinion one way or the other. Still, there isn't a lot of information here that most fans don't already know. 'The World of A&C' is a terrible clipshow from 1965, with obnoxious unfunny narration by Jack E. Leonard. The clips (from 19 of their films) are shown without rhyme or reason, with no context provided, and aren't even identified until the end credits. They're also not even shown in chronological order, which doesn't allow the viewer to get a sense of how their craft, screen relationship, and characters grew and evolved over time. Besides that, most of the clips are from their later films such as 'Mexican Hayride,' 'Lost in Alaska,' and 'A&C Go to Mars,' which aren't exactly regarded as the cream of the crop. It's inexplicable why their earlier, more representative, films were ignored or given such short schrift. And with no background information provided, just a nonstop stream of clips, the viewer will have no sense of why they were so popular and great.

Overall, while none of these films are really classics, I do think they're better than their reputations. While this isn't a set that's ideal for the new or casual fan, it does have a lot of great moments for the more established fan. It's just too bad it's padded out with three documentaries instead of the rest of their later films that haven't already been released.

4 out of 5 stars A&C with fillers..........2007-05-15

This is a mix of some funny stuff with a few other materials thrown in but not necessarily for good measure. However, that is what the search button on the remote is for. All in all, A&C is classic slapstick...with my favorites being the Jekyl & Hyde and the Mummy sequences. It is something that will give some good laughs to all generations. I wouldn't say this volume is exceptional, but a few selections will give a nice smack on the funny bone.

5 out of 5 stars abbott & costello fan club.......2007-05-13

I am a big fan of them from many years ago, and since we have the dvds (all of them) my kids really enjoy all their movies too, and think they are hilarious. My kids are 11, 9, and 5 and other then the fact that they dont know why its in black and white, they laugh like crazy, and because they are harmless, our whole family can watch them together, which is a rare thing these days.

The DVD plays great and it,s not to bad of a comedy series so all and all like I said it,s okay but I,ve seen better comedy series.

Description

The heat is on in this fast paced action-comedy starring Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley, a street smart Detroit cop tracking down his best friend's killer in Beverly Hills. Axel quickly learns that his wild style doesn't fit in with the Beverly Hills Police Department, which assigns two officers (Judge Reinhold & John Ashton) to make sure things don't get out of hand. Dragging the stuffy detectives along for the ride, Axel smashes through a huge culture clash in his hilarious, high-speed pursuit of justice. Axel Foley (Murphy) is back-back where he doesn't belong! He's going "deep, deep, deep undercover" into the chic wilds of Southern California, unleashing his arsenal of blazing gunfire and rapid-fire gags against a gang of international munitions smugglers. Back, too, are Judge Reinhold and John Ashton as Murphy's crime-busting sidekicks. And Top Gun's director Tony Scott keeps the pace fast, furious and funny. This time, superstar Murphy comes up with the best showcase yet for Axel's comedic, rapid fire bravado. His determined pursuit of ruthless killers, with a little help from old pals Serge (Bronson Pinchot) and Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold), leads him to LA's popular theme park, WonderWorld. Suddenly, Axel is the park's hottest new attraction, whether it's dangling from the giant Spider ride to rescue a child or going deep, deep, deep undercover as Okey Dokey, a seven-foot blue elephant.

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant! Love this series..........2007-06-16

I really am a big Eddie Murphy fan, and love this series, or fanchise as they say in the videogame world.

Even though 3 is not good, there's extras, which gives you the background story behind the camera and makes you appreicate where John Landis, the director was trying to go (but didn't quite succeed.)

Recommended!

4 out of 5 stars Brightest of dark cinema.......2007-06-23

The CLASSIC FILM NOIR 9 MOVIE PACK offers thirteen full hours of spine-tingling shadowy melodramas and some of Hollywood's best actors, all at one terrific low price. Film noir (or "dark cinema") reigned supreme from the late 1930s until the early 50s. Unlike most "happy ending" movies, in noir the protagonist often faced humiliation, defeat and even death. These little gems are all still very highly regarded by connoisseurs of this genre, and for good reason. If you are new to film noir, here's the perfect set to start your collection off right!

And if you have all these great titles already, or would like even more of the same, then you simply cannot go wrong with the DARK CRIMES COLLECTION 50 MOVIE PACK. It'll keep you on the edge of your seat for weeks to come.

5 out of 5 stars GREAT collection of FILM NOIR for AWESOME PRICE.......2007-05-16

I saw this DVD set in a Best Buy a few months ago. It was only six or seven dollars, so I bought it. I sat down and watched a couple of the films and they were awesome. I haven't finished watching the whole set but of the 4-5 films I have watched, it was totally worth every penny. D.O.A. and Detour are my favorites so far... the only one I really didn't like was The Scar. I guess I just couldn't get into it.

5 out of 5 stars great collection of film noir in one set!.......2007-04-23

The movies in this collection are some of the best
in one set that i've seen. Everyone is a winner!
From the first disc to the last there isn't a dud
in the set. If you like film noir this is the set
without spending a fortune.

3 out of 5 stars Good movies but box was smashed.......2006-07-08

It is great if it is for yourself but don't buy as a present.

5 out of 5 stars this company really knows how to put a collection together.......2006-06-27

i have bought many of these sets and they really put these together well. all the movies are sharp and clear and even at this great price this company also adds a few extras in the mix(you other companys take heed of that) and that makes this one a keeper!! give it a try!!

The movies sell themselves. However, they are not the first in the "Dirty Harry" series I was trying to find as a set. It was as close as I could come to it. I had a hard time finding these the way it was. I'll have to purchase "Sudden Impact" seperately.
This was also the best price I could find on the web from a reputable source. Fast delivery. Very Satisfied.

Thanks Amazon!!!!!!

4 out of 5 stars A good deal.......2007-04-23

When you figure that all these movies go for about 13-15 dollars each elsewhere, it's a good deal. Individually, the choice of movies is odd. While the first two Dirty Harry movies are the better of the series, and entertaining, the psychological horror of tightrope almost feels misplaced. Perhaps Dirty Harry, tightrope, and another non-dirty harry copy movie would have been better. Regardless, the movies themselves are all good, and worthy of purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Clint Eastwood-Dirty Harry.......2007-02-20

If you are a "Dirty Harry" fan this set is a must. wonderful. I wish more of the movies were on DVD.

2 out of 5 stars Too bad Sony/Columbia doesn't respect the Stooges.......2007-01-03

My middling rating does not reflect on The Three Stooges, who are, of course fantastic, but as a criticism of Sony/Columbia, which by releasing the Stooges on DVD in the manner it does, shows a tremendous lack of respect for their brilliance, as well as for their commercial success. We all know about how Columbia treated the Stooges so shoddily while they worked for the studio, underpaying them despite the fact that they were one of the studio's most valuable properties; sadly, this disrespect even continues on.

Columbia should be releasing DVD's that honor the Stooges work, not just exploit it. They could easily have made these DVD's into tributes to the Stooge's work at the studio, as historical records of their years of great work. They should have arranged the shorts chronologically, instead of by these bizarre 'themes', often based more upon the titles than the actual content of the shorts. As an example, the 'Three Smart Saps' disc contains five shorts that have the word 'three' in their titles, while 'G.I. Stooges' contains episodes where the Stooges serve in the military (not necessarily the US military, I might add!, OR the merchant marine(BACK FROM THE FRONT), OR just wear enemy uniforms (NO DOUGH BOYS).

This approach makes little sense, and it really breaks down on the 'Cops and Robbers' disc, which includes shorts where the Stooges are private detectives, reporters, firemen AND veterinarians!

Others have pointed out better than I can the other shortcomings of these discs (no special features, only five shorts per disc, etc...).

I would add another complaint that on several of the shorts, there are small snippets of scenes missing, which tells me that Columbia did VERY little work in compiling these discs. The prints ARE excellent, and the sound is good, but it seems that the studio just used the prints they had available, and made no effort to seek out others that were more complete. I KNOW that more complete prints exist, because like all of you, I have seen them for years shown on TV. How miserly and uncaring of Columbia to not put some effort into fully restoring these shorts. It could have been done, but apparently they did not think it worth bothering.

Columbia, SHAME ON YOU!

Despite this, a Stooges fan MUST buy them, because these discs are the only way to get decent-looking copies of these comedic geniuses' work. So, yes I have bought them, and yes, I will buy more of them. But every time I do, I will bear a grudge against Columbia.

Columbia, SHAME ON YOU!

This set features the DVDs "G.I Stooge," "Cops and Robbers," and "Three Smart Saps."

The picture quality varies from short to short, but generally falls into the acceptable range, as does the audio quality. Buying these sets of three will save you a few dollars over buying each release individually.

The short "Who Done It?" is included here, via "Cops and Robbers," and is the highest rated short the Stooges EVER did over at ThreeStooges dot net, a popular Stooges fan site.

Product Description

Beverly Hills Cop
The heat is on in this fast paced action-comedy starring Eddie Murphy as Axel Foley, a street smart Detroit cop tracking down his best friend's killer in Beverly Hills. Axel quickly learns that his wild style doesn't fit in with the Beverly Hills Police Department, which assigns two officers (Judge Reinhold & John Ashton) to make sure things don't get out of hand. Dragging the stuffy detectives along for the ride, Axel smashes through a huge culture clash in his hilarious, high-speed pursuit of justice. Featuring cameos by Paul Reiser, Bronson Pinchot and Damon Wayans, Beverly Hills Cop is an exhilarating, sidesplitting adventure.

Trading Places
The fun begins when the rich and greedy Duke Brothers (Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy) wager a bet over whether born loser Valentine (Eddie Murphy) could become as successful as the priggish Winthorpe (Dan Akroyd) if circumstances were reversed. The Dukes have the money to make this happen, but when Valentine and Winthorpe catch on they arrange for a rich and riotous payback!

48 Hrs.
Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy make one of the most unusual and entertaining teams ever in Walter Hill's rollercoaster thriller, 48 Hrs. Nolte is a rough-edged cop after two vicious cop-killers. He can't do it without the help of smooth and dapper Murphy, who is serving time for a half-million dollar robbery. This unlikely partnership trades laughs as often as punches as both pursue their separate goals: Nolte wants the villains; Murphy wants his money and some much-needed female companionship. Together they take this adventure to hilarious extremes!

5 out of 5 stars Eddie's 3 first.... and 3 best!.......2007-01-02

Yup... his 3 first... and 3 best films.... all in one package... for $11.99! What a steal! Sure, I'd love bonus features, deleted scenes, and all that fun stuff, but for $4 each, I'm not complaining. Great deal for the best of Eddie!

4 out of 5 stars Pride Final Conflict 2004.......2007-08-02

Very good Pride DVD. Nice matchups with plenty of action. A couple of fights were human highlight reels. A great DVD for the true MMA fans who will miss Saitama Super Arena. Japanese fans were amazing. Disciplined, appreciative and respectful. US fans have a long way to go to match Japanese appreciation of MMA. With that said...very good DVD.

5 out of 5 stars Great Ending to the heavyweight grand prix.......2006-07-10

yes, the very last fight does end in disappointing fashion, but the entire card before that is filled with extremely exciting fights. the Cro Cop/Aleks fight is one of the best ever, as is the Sergei/Nog and Kondo/Silva fights. Watching Fedor take on Ogawa is also a pleasant treat.

4 out of 5 stars The intro... WOW........2006-06-20

The introduction of this event still blows my mind everytime I see it. The fights on this are pretty good... above average in terms of Pride events IMO. Really, the intro is the first thing that comes to my mind when I think of this event. You really should buy this... it is an excellent event that you will enjoy seeing.

3 out of 5 stars No contest.......2006-04-16

This is a pretty good fight video but it is disappointing. You may as well know up front that the "final conflict" does not happen. You don't get to see it.

The "final conflict" is the championship fight of the heavyweight tournament. The final four square off on this video, and there are two winners who are supposed to fight for the championship. However the fight does not happen. Instead, one of the fighters, the better one as a matter of fact, gets a nasty head cut from an accidental head collision, and the fight is ruled a "no contest".

For the faint of heart (like me) be warned that you see some very graphic shots of fingers prying apart the skin on the man's forehead, showing a really bad and deep cut wide open to inspection. The skin is separated a good bit.

There are some good fights on the card. It is still worth watching, even though there is no conclusion.

5 out of 5 stars Great Event As Always.......2005-11-11

Final Conflict 2004 was the finals of the PRIDE Heavyweight Grand Prix and was overall a tremendous event.

This event showcases the best fighters in the world. Fedor Emelianenko, Antonio Nogueira, Yuki Kondo, Mirko Cro Cop, and Wanderlei Silva are among the mega-stars you will see on this event.

Despite the controversial ending the main event, this event is packed with great fights. And of course, the MMA legend himself, Kazushi Sakuraba is on the card and puts on a great performance.

      3 out of 5 stars Funky 70's Cop Mix.......2006-03-23

      This isn't what I thought I was buying, but when I started watching it I'm sure some people will get into it. It's not the COPS we're used to seeing on TV today, it's the made up version is all. But not bad especially for the price.

      1 out of 5 stars Old old set of "C" movies.......2005-05-16

      I was fooled! I thought this had something to do with the COPS TV show. Not at all.

      This is a set of not "B" movies but "C" movies from the 50's and 60's. Totally unknown actors and movies which have something to do with investigation or police (as 80% of movies often have).

      It is a discrase to even sell this sh**t!!
