 Good Clean fun! Old movie on quality DVDSep 03, 2010
Abbott and Costello Movies are clean fun for family! Not only are the stories funny, you get a piece of American History with the automobiles, clothing styles, storefronts, prices etc. Several movies were shot during WW2 and show how Hollywood and the USO supported our boys. Worth adding to your DVD library. (I may recommend to our Waldwick, NJ Library for their movie night!)
The Best of Abbott and CostelloAug 21, 2010
I mean, really, it is their best. I own the first three volumes and by far volume one is the best collection. Their earlier works were not only funnier and better written, the timing of the jokes and slapstick is excellent. As they got older they kind of lost that spark they had in these early films. I enjoy these movies so much I've purchased this collection to others. Eight wonderful movies for under twenty bucks. You can't beat that! And they look and sound good too. No old grainy prints here.
Happy time watching Abbott & Costello MoviesAug 20, 2010
I grew up watching these movies on tv as a kid and enjoy everyone of them now as much as I did nearly 50 years ago! I bought this especially for "Hold that Ghost" and "Pardon My Sarong"...other great ones are "Buck Privates", "One Night in the Tropics".
I also own Vol. 2 & 3 with other favorites Abbott and Costello movies like "Time of Their Lives" and Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein" !!!!!
I recommend these wholeheartedly. Jill
Great DVD'sJun 14, 2010
These are first rate copies of the original movies. I like the double sided feature. The only small negative is that the disk labels are somewhat hard to read. Shipment was very fast and disk packaging is well done.

great old movies seldom played on TV now-a-daysMar 17, 2010
great old movies seldom played on TV now-a-days. I grew up watching Abbott and Costello and always loved the comedy routines. I won't go into details about the movies, others have already. 2 disc with 4 movies per disc, 2 movies per side. Disc are double sided so need to flip the disc over. Movie quality is very good, as good or better then I have ever seen on TV (I have never seen any of the movies in a theater), much better then I had expected. Nice menu with extras.
