John Wayne Century Collection December 6, 2008
Purchased as a gift for a "dyed in the wool" John Wayne fan. He was very pleased with the titles included in this collection. Purchased because it includes a very good mix of the Duke's better more well known movies.

JOHN WAYNE is what all us AMERICANS THINK and would like to be, these films, despick the lives and way we all wish we were. I WATCH THESE MOVIES WHEN I get discouraged with the way some of our leaders conduct themselves. RESTORES my faith in the COWBOY-AMERICAN WAY.

John Waynes Various Movies On DVD April 2, 2008
5 out of 8 found this review helpful
Wonderful & Safe Entertainment For Whole Family
We do not have regular TV as a result of what is being shown today, especially the
commercials we find very to be very offensive and can be worst then the programming in some cases.
We are purchasing more & more of the various DVDs from the time when shows were morally much safer all around! Healthier experience for children of all ages!
Better extra features than I'd expect from Paramount March 5, 2008
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Paramount is generally clueless about handling the classic movies they have in their possession. Just because the movies star John Wayne, I wouldn't expect Paramount to treat them any differently, but this time they actually did a good job. Paramount actually included commentary on five of the films, although why there isn't anything extra on the wonderful "Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" and there's only a featurette on the epic "In Harm's Way", I don't know. The product description does a pretty good job of describing each film, so I'll just list the extra features for each movie:
Big Jake - NO EXTRAS
Donovan's Reef - NO EXTRAS
Hatari! - NO EXTRAS
In Harm's Way - Three theatrical trailers; "The Making of in Harm's Way"
Man Who Shot Liberty Valance - NO EXTRAS

El Dorado - NO EXTRAS
Even though we're not getting "The Quiet Man" in this extensive set, "McLintock" almost makes up for it as the dynamic between John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara is just as combative with that same underlying chemistry. Think of it as The Quiet Man of the frontier west. Highly recommended.
