Movie Reviews of The Prisoner - Complete Series Megaset (40th Anniversary Edition)
Movie Review: A Groundbreaking Series that has Never been Equalled
Summary: 5 Stars
A lot has been written about this series so I can't add a lot more. I came across this series 10 years ago and was immediately hooked. The writing, the concept, the acting, have all stood the test of time. It is an allegory of man's struggle to maintain his individualism in a society that rewards conformity. But even if you don't care for the underlying the message the episodes are sharply written, inventive, and stand alone as entertaining TV.
As a fan of the show, the last two episodes still annoy me but it is a testament to the other episodes that I can overlook that and still say this is one of the top ten TV series that was ever on TV.
Movie Review: 40 years on and still excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw The Prisoner in 1968 and loved it. Unfortunately we didn't have a video recorder then (!) so I waited. And waited. Now we have the entire series, restored to near-perfection, and it wears extremely well: no cars to date it, no fashion to speak of, just The Village garb, even the dialog is timeless. And - I had forgotten - surprisingly sharp and funny at time. But can't watch just one episode a week ... (Treat yourself to the Village font too - it's free)Movie Review: Cult Series of my Childhood
Summary: 4 Stars
This series always fascinated me. All the many years since they got broadcasted in Switzerland for the first time I never quite forgot it.
To possess the whole set means an old dream has come true. To find so many fan sites in the Internet doubles the fun.

Well..when I was a boy (back in 1969-1970)I used to watch every week The Prisoner....here in BRAZIL... and I love these glamourous and thrillin' episodes from the very start......Do you remember THE ROVER???

Thanks AMAZON!!!
And I'll watch every episode with my 13 years son......by the way my son's name is PATRICK can I tell more????? Go now and buy this gem..it's a must have!!!!
Movie Review: DVDs to Other Countries
Summary: 2 Stars
The DVDs arrived quickly but I can't play them on Australian DVD player! So I have sent them back. I think the vendor needs to make sure that similar DVDs are in no-zone format which are available as I have just received another order which is no-zone....
