This review is from: Inspector Morse Infernal Serpe (DVD)
Inspector Morse....what on earth can be said that hasn't already been said?This whole series from beginning to end stands alone, head and shoulders above the rest. So very, very sad when it finally came to an End :( But that was made a little easier by knowing that 'Inspector Lewis' picked up the mantle and continues on to solve crimes in Oxford! We were a little nervous in investing in this whole series, thinking that maybe it was too 'dated'...but no...all the acting was so good and mature, one does not even remember that this series was made " a while" ago. We will not see too many actor in our life time with the talent of John Thaw = Inspector Morse.

This review is from: Inspector Morse Infernal Serpe (DVD)
What's not to love about Inspector Morse! He is his own man and is an interesting character study in general. He does crossword puzzles, likes his 'pints', doesn't suffer fools, neither the pedestrian kind nor the fellow police kind. His faithful partner Lewis is always at his side, although there are times when Lewis get's aggravated with him, they nonetheless, have a close relationship and Morse depends on him more than he ever admits.I've seen him age in this wonderful series and was deeply saddened by not only his passing in the final episode of the series, but also his passing in reality! I will always be a fan of both John Thaw and Inpector Morse. 4 of 5 people found the following review helpful

Morse is the "best of the best!",

I don't know quite what it is, but watching Morse in action is worth many times what's currently playing in any movie theatre. Morse and Lewis continue to entertain as they go about unraveling murder and mayhem in Oxford, England. I have watched these episodes many times over the years and always marvel at the scenery, script, personalities and fine actors. I bought this particular collection for a relative over the holidays with the hope of passing on the pleasure I have found in watching Morse. They are expensive, comparatively speaking, but worth every penny!

Crosswords, Beer, Wagner, Beautiful Women......and Catching Murderers,
By Elmore Jaimz "bluemrblue" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Inspector Morse Infernal Serpe (DVD)
These are the major passions of the curmudgeonly, stubborn, impulsive Inspector Morse or the Thames Valley PD. Surprising how many killings occur in the stately old town of Oxford! How fortunate we are to have the wonderfully cerebral novels of Colin Dexter to rely on, and his brilliant creation, the sometimes-wrong but always dedicated Morse. It's always interesting to witness the sometimes truculent interaction between the confirmed bachelor Morse and his protege, the married-with-kids, by-the-book Welshman, Lewis. Morse does not suffer fools, and though many have mistaken Lewis for a country bumpkin or naif, he is the stabilizing influence and the voice of reason in the duo. So often Morse leaps to conclusions only to be reined in by the steady Lewis.There are many fine British detective series: Touch of Frost, Cracker, Wire in the Blood, Midsomer, etc., but Morse is at the top. One question: I don't own any of the DVD's. They are always too expensive. Why is that? The only time I've ever watched them is when they are on PBS. I keep hoping for the price of a used set on Amazon to get down to maybe $25 US, but they're always twice that. Such a shame. |
