This collection includes four episodes of the Basil Rathbone series and has been colorized. I hope they released the rest in color. I understand the charm of the original black & white series. However, I have found I really like the color versions as well. Color does add some life to the characters. I have been watching these four episodes on Prime TV which are a better quality. The DVD depicts the episodes in wide screen format which has somewhat distorted the appearance of the characters and has diluted the color and sharpness.

It was nice to see 4 old super Holmes movies in their original form and then to see them in color. What makes it good is that the company that did the color for these movies was at high quality level function. The movies in themselves are filled with suspense of what will happen next. The color versions seem to brighten things up. Making some of the night shots visible rather than having a scene of utter darkness on the screen where you can't be sure of what's happening. To take it to the ultimate level would be to do the entire series in color versions and market it as a package. But the originals will always be the rulers. After all there is no replacement for a 1955 Packard Clipper Constellation is there?? It was a really nice way to spend the afternoon relaxing and watching good old movies that only a few have. Also the vendor that I bought from is just super. I have bought hundreds of discs from Movie Marz and every one was a perfect transaction. And if there were any problems Movie Marz will make it right. So if you are into it enjoy a bit of nostalgia like I did watching the movies but sorry I can't share my Packard. Have a super E-Bay Day......Read full review
First of all, these are great and fun entertainment. These are the types of old movies that can be watched over and over again. Added to this is the excellent colorization of the old B/W prints. This is beautifully done, and it almost looks like they were originally released in color. Arrived quickly and in great condition.
