Road to Bali | Year: 1953 Directed: - Hal Walker Actors/Actresses: - Bing Crosby - Bob Hope - Dorothy Lamour Ah! Finally, a decent version! Bob Hope and Bing Crosby are as funny as ever in Road To Bali which is perhaps the best of the road pictures, not just because it is the only one shot in color but because of the unsurpassed wit and charm that is carried over in this particular movie.<BR>Brentwood has been successful in bringing a good transfer of this film to home video. The image is sharp, the colors are rich and bright, and the audio quality for it's time sounds great. If you are looking for the definitive DVD of Road To Bali, Brentwood is the way to go. Bali who? What a delightful Road DVD. Although the only extra is a Bio on Bob Hope, overall it is well worth the money. The color is great and the sound is acceptable(only ocassional fluctuation in level). The sets and costumes really add to this movie. Undoubtly they made them more colorful since this was the only road movie made in color. What a pity. This certainly follows the tradition of the others and Hope, Crosby, and Lamour look great. From stage performers to deep sea divers they sing and dance their way into your heart. If you only buy one road movie then be sure it is this one since it is great and the color will appeal to a younger audience as well. A movie that the whole family will find amusing jokes or site gags. Good but not the best of the road series. I really love Bob Hope but this was not one of his best. Funny yes but look at the younger Hope movies and you will agree that he has better timeing and hummor in the thirties and fourties. I loved son of Pale face not a road move but a real funny one and lemon drop kid also. I'm not convinced that just because this movie was in color that it appeals to a younger crowd. My kids liked the BW ones much better. Buy Road To Bali at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.com Jamster - the latest ringtones for your phone!
