Tribute to Ronald Reagan

Rating:
Summary: This is a tribute?
Review: I had the VHS version and liked it, so I went ahead and bought the updated DVD. It was well worth it. The DVD version has a lot of new footage, including some of Reagan's most famous speeches ("A Time for Choosing" and the speech after the air traffic controllers went on strike are classics). I've seen a lot of Reagan videos, but this one by far is the most comprehensive. It has everything. And the new DVD features are great, too. If you can only buy one Reagan video, this is the one.

Summary: Superb, must see movie foe everyone, even for anti-Reagans!
Review: Ronald Reagan did save our lives and the sole fact that we work, leave and sleep peacefuly, is the result of his vision and the style of leadership. He brought our dreams to life by his arrogance and strong belief in future and democracy. This video will tell and remind us again that He did act and while acting he never gave up thinking about the people around the world. Let us wish Gipper all the best for the remainder of his glorious life!

Summary: Everyone Should See This
Review: Ronald Reagan is truely a Hero. He brought back optimism to a Nation that had given up hope. He brought back pride to be an American. Looking back at all he achieved is awesome and inspiring. I recommend this video to all the young people that never really knew what it was like before President Reagan gave us back our American Spirit! I remember it well and I say "Thank You, President Reagan." & "God Bless You"

Summary: The definitive Ronald Reagan video
Review: Ronald Reagan was a great American, and this video is a worthy tribute to this heroic figure. The program extensively covers the former President's life, including several in-depth interviews with White House insiders. If you're looking for a video that is both entertaining and informative, look no further.

Summary: This is a tribute?
Review: There is a reason there are many used copies for sale...this is a cheap knock-off. Not much of a tribute.

Summary: OK but not the best of the Great Communicator
Review: This is fine but not the final word. I would highly recommend spending a few more dollar and picking up MPI's "Ronald Reagan--the Great Communicator" which has seven hours of highlights.

Summary: They Blew The Chance And Messed It Up
Review: This originally came out on a two volume, two VHS tape set. Each volume started off with the same introduction. It was always unnecessary to have it on two volumes in the first place. Here they had a chance to combine the two volumes into one, but they didn't. They also did not get the original source video tape and digitally master it real good. It looks like they simply got a VHS tape and copied it to DVD. There is also a "dedicated to the memory of" some guy at the beginning of each volume which seems totally out of place. The bonus material is OK, but there is still too much of Reagan's friends, staff, and people that did not even know him talking and getting face time. It really is a shame because they missed the chance to make this almost perfect. They even made it worse by showing Bill Clinton in there. If they would have combined both volumes into one, digitally mastered it from the original source tape, included as bonuses the 1964 "Time For Choosing" speech, the 1984 Convention speech, and the Farewell Address To the Nation it would have almost been perfect. Maybe one day someone will realize that all one has to do with Ronald Reagan footage is just very briefly set the stage and simply show Ronald Reagan speaking. The only set that really comes close to that is "The Great Communicator" set, but right now that is not on DVD.
