DVD Reviews of Kung Fu - The Complete First Three Seasons
DVD Review: Grasshopper lives on!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a huge fan of Kung Fu in the 70's. I hadn't seen or even thought about it much in years until a friend and I mentioned recently how much we loved the show. I had no idea if it was still available, but a quick search online showed me that the entire series (3 seasons) was now out on DVD. I received it a few weeks ago, and it's still an absolute joy to watch. In addition to the show itself still being as cool as ever, watching it kind of "takes me back" to a different part of my life, in the best way. And having matured to a greater or lesser degree (depending on who you talk to) over the intervening years, I find I can appreciate the show's subtleties and philosophical teachings better now than when I was young.
The extras about the development of the show, casting, etc. are informative. But of course it's the show itself that stands out. A few reviews mentioned that the video quality wasn't all that good - I've only watched the pilot movie and a few episodes so far, but have found the video quality to be just fine. After all, it was shot in the early 70's and will only look as good as the technology at that time would have allowed. I actually like the fact that it looks exactly as I remember it, making the experience all the more authentic.
If you loved the show like I did, it's a no-brainer. You get the whole series for less than $100...snatch the pebble from my hand, walk the rice-paper, and buy this set, Grasshopper!
DVD Review: My favorite TV series
Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished watching the 62 episodes and it exceeded my expectations. Great concept for a TV series.DVD Review: Everything you can hope for.
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this set with some trepidation. It's a 70's TV show, with simple plots and appealed to that generation. Would it stand the test of time?
Yes!
The quality of presentation and packaging is supported by the quality of the dvd's. The picture holds up well on a big screen. The plots are as you would remember, predictable but nevertheless inspirational and moving. Caradine lives his role, it is impossible to not accept the he and Caine are one and the same.
The initial picture and first episode will quickly get you hooked. Why was he called grasshopper? A fundamental link to being in tune with the world. Philosophy as entertainment? Hollywood providing a role model? Don't look too deep. Just buy and enjoy as much as we did over thirty years ago.
DVD Review: Kung FU
Summary: 5 Stars
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!
Kung FU Episodes aside from being great shows, offer Moral Life Lessons we feel are beneficial to all our children & us alike!
Healthier experience for children of all ages!
DVD Review: Beats Reality TV
Summary: 5 Stars
I think you have to know about the series if you're going to buy this. It was one of the first programmes I remember watching on tv as a kid. So if you're reading the review, you're interested in buying the DVD's but wonder if it's worth it. I have to say I have certainly got my money's worth with the DVD's. There are 4 double sided disks in each box with 3 programmes on each side of the disk. I am only half way through the second series but my wife complains that I am hogging the TV...(where is Caine when you need him!) If you want to see endless Kung Fu fighting then this is not for you as Caine does 2 fights per episode. It's more about the philosophy in the temple and Caine applying the principles through life doing his 'Little Hobo' bit. If you collect the final Caine Kung Fu film then you have a complete collection. Watching the programmes also takes you back to your halcyan days of Yore, (the good old days) and what you were doing when Kung Fu was on 'the box'. I'm certainly glad I bought them, great value for money.
