Lone Ranger Double Feature

Lone Ranger DVD Not Always As Good As Gold
This DVD features "The Lone Ranger" and "The Lone Ranger and The Lost City of Gold" - two colour feature length movies from 1956 and 1958 respectively after the famous TV series ended. Now that Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels have hit middle-age, you can see they're getting a little older for their roles here. But that doesn't take away from the enjoyment and excitement of watching the classic "Lone Ranger" in action and in colour. I found the first feature was the better of the two, having more action and stronger villains. It was also interesting to see them actually put a bit of money into the production of these films. Sometimes you could really see them cutting corners on the original TV series.

In terms of the DVD itself, there are no extras or special features such as subtitles unfortunately. Then again this is clearly designed to be a budget priced DVD. The prints are generally good, although the colours are a little dull or muted at times. "The Lone Ranger" is...

The opportunity to see the Lone Ranger in color
If you remember and liked the show, here's your chance to see a longer story, larger budget version in color with all the great scenery. The DVD quality is quite good for the age and the cost of this offering. Two movies, both are entertaining, I remember seeing them on a Saturday theater offering, in a small Upper Michigan town, and now I can share this with the Grandkids. If we don't show them that there once was "good" entertainment, who will?

THE LONE RANGER DOUBLE FEATURE
These movies are great classics.
Clayton Moore in my opinion has always been the best lone ranger.
I will also purchase the new lone ranger movie in November 2013.
