1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible DVD Transfer, April 13 2001

By

Cary Loeser (Evergreen, Colorado) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hallelujah Trail (Widescreen) (DVD)

MGM has made the decision to offer this presentation of Hallelujah Trail on one side (two layers) of a DVD disc, requiring more compression of the video image than we normally see on higher quality DVD's. This has resulted in a DVD that is positively painful to watch due to digital artifacts. MGM should be embarrased about releaseing such an inferior product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor picture quality ruins this DVD, Mar 24 2001

By

F. William Hoffman (Ellicott City, MD USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hallelujah Trail (Widescreen) (DVD)

This release of a classic big event comedy/western is ruined by a simply awful transfer to DVD. The picture quality as seen line-doubled on my Pioneer Elite 700 HD set is nearly unwatchable. I hope MGM will try again with a goal of creating a much better transfer. This is one of the worst-looking DVDs I have seen.

Too bad because the movie is enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars A 'must see' for Lancaster and Western Comedy Fans!!!, Mar 13 2001

By

"jan@womenssupport.org" (Saint Louis, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hallelujah Trail (VHS Tape)

This is one of my favorite comedies and it has the advantage of being a light musical as well. It's not politically correct, so if you consider many contemporary issues 'don't touch' subject matter, this isn't the film for you. However, if you enjoy satire and plain silliness, you'll like this classic. Lancaster puts the "v" in versatility with his comedic performance, and Donald Pleasance's Oracle Jones, isn't far behind (one of those pleasant surprises, like John Lithgow). From Indian rallies and army bands in the brig to white petticoats and red longjohns, the misadventures of Colonel Thaddeous Gerhardt and Cora Templeton Massengale will leave you in stitches!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a movie!
I love this film. The humor is very good, the acting is superb, and it has a very catchy theme.
