Summary: Great movies, but I've seen better quality
Comment: I just got this dvd set with the Bob Hope Tribute Collection "The road show series" and have to say I am pretty disappointed with the quality. Both movies are pretty grainy and a few of the frames have glitches. I mainly got this dvd because of "Road to Rio". I already own a dvd with "My Favorite Brunette" and "Road to Bali"Road to Bali/My Favorite Brunette. I bought this set thinking the quality would be much better then the version I owned and boy was I wrong! First chance I get I'm buying the single version of "Road to Rio". On another note Bob Hope Tribute Collection has amazing quality and I highly recommend it!Bob Hope Tribute Collection - The Road Show Series (The Road to Morocco / The Road to Singapore / The Road to Utopia / The Road to Zanzibar)

Summary: STUNNING COLOR AND I LOATH YOU, I HATE YOU, I DESPISE YOU.
Comment: I bought this based on Yarbys review. Everything he said is correct. Where did BCI(Brentwood) get that print? The colors in "Bali" are stunning. On the title menu is a still of a dancer and she seems to floating on the screen. I can't praise the quality enough.

"Rio" is not perfect, just very good.

Summary: Get this set while you can
Comment: BCI (Brentwood) had done a wonderful job at transferring these two public domain "Road" movies. The color in "Road to Bali" is stunning...a few of the "big time" DVD companies would be wise to take a lesson from Brentwood.

The black and white "Road to Rio" is well done, though not quite as perfect as the color "Bali" ("Bali" was the only color movie made in the "Road" series). "Road to Rio" is transferred from a UCLA Archive edition of the movie. The sound needs to be turned up a little on this one...but that could be the result of the age of the movie and nothing more.

All in all, a wonderful addition to anyone's classic movie collection. No extras (outside of a Hope biography) and limited chapter marking...but it really doesn't matter.

Universal DVD.....are you paying attention? This is how to issue a DVD! No skips, no grain.
