Movie Reviews of Reader's Digest - America's Most Scenic Drives (4 Discs)
Movie Review: don't waste your money...
Summary: 1 Stars
You actually see more of the little red car (a Ford...did Ford sponsor the original tv broadcast, I wonder?) than you do anything that I'd call "scenery"...lots of parades and roadside trashy touristy stuff - and the film crew has an inexplicable fascination with traffic lights in the downtown areas of small towns...I have no idea what that's about, but very little it the way of scenery. For instance, if the sequence in disk 1 about Mount Desert Island in Maine was all you had to go on, you wouldn't think the place was worth visiting, much less one of the most beautiful places in the entire country which it is. You'd have a really good idea of what that stupid red car looked like though!
I'm shocked that Reader's Digest let its name be attached to something this cheesy...stay away!
Summary of Reader's Digest - America's Most Scenic Drives (4 Discs)
Enjoy Breathtaking Beauty at Every Turn in this 4 Disc Scenic Drives Collection - Disc 1: From Maine to Key West Cruise down the most scenic routes of the Eastern Seaboard, driving along Maine's rocky coast, stopping to admire the views at Acadia National Park. Motor to charming Nantucket and then continue on to Cape Cod in its entire summer splendor. Admire the brilliant red and orange leaves common to autumn-kissed New England. Stop and appreciate the dramatic motion of the mighty Niagara Falls. Step into a simpler life in Pennsylvania's Amish Country, and then continue south through the Shenandoah Valley, admiring the lush landscapes and diverse wildlife. Embrace the local charm of Chincoteague Island, and the vast beauty of the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains. Heading further south, slow down for some time in Savannah, Georgia's quaint cityscapes. Finish your road trip at the sunny beaches and blue lapping waves in the Florida Keys, the perfect destination for any drive. Disc 2: From Texas to Yellowstone Journey through the ever-changing, beautiful American Heartland, crossing the romantic Bridges of Madison County in Iowa. Travel across a landscape of lush green Missouri hills through the Ozark Mountains. Glide through Montana's Big Sky Country, and stream past Texas' languid and storied Rio Grande. Then traverse Route 170E and loop through Big Bend National Park. Enjoy one of the greatest scenic drives of the American Southwest at Four Corners: navigating through Bryce Canyon, to Arches National park, to Monument Valley, finishing in Mesa Verde, taking in some of the most dramatic landscapes in the nation. Follow Route 160E towards Durango, Colorado for an Old west adventure. Then cruise through the natural and manmade wonders of the Badlands and historic Mount Rushmore. Conclude the western tour with stops at gorgeous Glacier National Park and the national treasure of Yellowstone National Park. Disc 3: From Arizona to Alaska Coast across the dazzlingly diverse American West. Begin your journey at one of the world's favorite vacation destinations - the breathtaking Hawaiian Islands and the idyllic beaches on Hawaii's Kauai Island. Then return to the mainland for one of the greatest wonders of the natural world, the humbling Grand Canyon. Next, cruise along the Pacific Coast at gorgeous Big Sur on Route 1 to the wondrous Yosemite National Park. Next, the road heads to the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Regale in the scenic splendor of Redwood National Park, inhabited by gigantic trees - the tallest on the planet. Next, head north and east toward Oregon's peaceful Crater Lake. Another turn leads to a new Pacific Northwest Adventure from Mt. Rainier to Olympic National Park. Then cruise even further north to Alaska's Seward Highway and Kenai Peninsula, motoring through a blizzard of glorious landscapes and wildlife, and views that will take your breath away.
