Movie Reviews of The Lone Ranger
Movie Review: THIS IS NOT AS GOOD AS THE U.K. VERSION
Summary: 3 Stars
After buying a multi-region DVD player so I can watch foreign DVD's I purchased THE LONE RANGER:THE COLOUR EPISODES via Amazon UK.This edition has all 39 of the 5th season color episodes, so if you have or are willing to buy a multi-region DVD player the U.K. Lone Ranger boxed set is a much better buy.And don't be fooled by any misguided reviews criticizing these episodes for being "colorized".All the 5th season episodes were originally broadcast in color.Movie Review: The Lone Ranger rides again!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very good collector's item for every Lone Ranger fan. captured in color.
You really ''return to those thrilling days of yesteryear'' an action adveture series with the forever hero of the west The Lone Ranger wearing the white hat against the evil doers.
The package was carefully made like a ''saddle bag'' with alot of info about the radio series as well as the t.v. series.
Highly recomended to a true Lone Ranger fan
Movie Review: Remastered In Color?
Summary: 1 Stars
Remastered in color, like that is some kind of plus? Oh forget it. There is no charm and romance left in the world anymore. Only crass modernism. Lone Ranger was entirely written for black and white. Look at his horse and costume. What, did the hollywood idiots color it in pink so that if fits with their brokeback plot where every man must be as much a sniveling, pathetic weakling as those fairies?Movie Review: Great looking transfers, but. . . . . .
Summary: 3 Stars
I am amazed that none of the early reviewers mentioned that the episodes are not the complete ones. The color transfers look great, but what a huge disappointment to discover that each episode runs only about 22 minutes, including the credits. Oh, yes, the opening segment is not the original one either. Rhino gets five stars for fantastic color and clarity, but it loses two stars for presenting incomplete episodes.Movie Review: Clearing up some confusion.
Summary: 4 Stars
I won't rehash the details that have been mentioned in some of the other excellent reviews, but to prevent confusion from P.Hayman's peculiar review, a few points (or at least one major one)... This box set contains episodes from the final season.
As such, including the first episode would probably seem out of place. It is available in several other DVD releases, including the AMC first 14 episodes 2-disc set and in a dvd that combines the first 3 episodes into a movie of the origin of the Lone Ranger, each of which sell on Amazon for $9.99.
The final few seasons were intentionally (so far as I could surmise) filmed in color. Again, if this is a selling point, purchase a set containing earlier episodes and you will be able to see the Lone Ranger in his B&W glory.
This period in the series contains some classic episodes, and the production quality of these later episodes is quite good compared to earlier years. I think most fans of the masked man would not be disappointed with this set.
