DVD Reviews of The Lone Ranger and the Lost City Of Gold

DVD Review: As good as the first film
Summary: 5 Stars

Reviewers in film guides often regard this as a lesser film than the first theatrical film of The Lone Ranger, but I'm glad to see most fans know better. True, Clayton Moore is showing his years by now, and the scenic desert shots are more dramatic in the first film, but this one is every bit as good. Lots of action, a nice mix of earnestness and campiness, and some good reminders about racial tolerance. Moore's extended scenes without a mask, disguised only with a blond wig and Southern gentleman's goatee, are especially amusing. He is scamming the film's villainness, pretending to be a bounty hunter, while flirting outrageously with her, and it's a hoot. We never see the LR as a suave devil, and this part can't help but remind us that Moore was linked romantically with the tragic sex bombshell Lupe Velez in his younger days. The final shootout, in a deserted Indian village, is quite stark and imaginative. Jay Silverheels also gets a chance to do some acting. All-in-all, great fun.

DVD Review: Hi Yo Silver is PURE GOLD
Summary: 5 Stars

I was transported back to the days of my youth with this great quality DVD. I am glad I was able to get this film because Copies are fast disappearing and the manufacturer has discontinued it.What a travesty.The Lone Ranger with Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels is classic movie fare and should be available forever.The Lone Ranger and the Lost City of Gold is a real treat and a pleasant follow-up to the first theatrical Lone Ranger feature release. I recommend this to all Lone Ranger fans.

DVD Review: The Lost City of Gold
Summary: 5 Stars

The Lone Ranger rides again to unmask the West's most fabulous treasure! Three Indians are murdered. Each was wearing a medallion when he died. Together the medallions form a puzzle whose solution points to gold.

DVD Review: Maybe the best of The Lone Ranger
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved this film (I have the VHS version) for numerous reasons: it was in good, bright color, it wasn't too hokey, the cinematography was brilliant, and, most of all, I really like The Lone Ranger. The larger theme here is, of course, the struggle between good and evil (good wins) and the actual story sort of focuses on the bad treatment of Indians by rotten local whites, especially by the evil local sheriff. The Indians are in a poverty plight and, if The Lost City of Gold could be located by the tribe, their situation would be alleviated.
There's plenty of action and the locations are just tops. If you're at all into the western film genre, you'll love this one.

THE LONE RANGER CREED (Disc Two)
Written by Fran Striker.

Clayton Moore was a circus acrobat at the age of eight and grew up in the Midwest (Illinois)...worked in the circus and traveled to New York and then Hollywood where he became a stuntman and bit player...inducted into the "Stuntman's Hall of Fame" in 1982...also received the "Western Heritage Award from the National Cowboy Hall of Fame'" also the "Hall of Great Western Performers of the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum" both in 1990...Clayton was once quoted "Playing him [the Lone Ranger] made me a better person.", "Once I got the Lone Ranger role, I didn't want any other. I was playing the good guy."..."I will continue wearing the white hat and black mask until I ride up into the big ranch in the sky." (On his costume as the Lone Ranger, February 4, 1985)...Clayton very much enjoyed quoting and lived by "A Ranger's Creed" which included this moral lesson "That God put the firewood there, but every man must gather and light it himself."

Great job by VCI Entertainment for releasing the digital transfere with a clean, clear and crisp print...looking forward to more of the same from The Lone Ranger vintage era...order your copy now from Amazon or VCI Entertainment, stay tuned once again with a top notch B-Western from VCI...just the way we like 'em!
