Summary: Great buy
Comment: This was a great buy. My sister wanted some christmas movies for christmas, so this was a perfect buy!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great holiday flicks
Comment: These are wonderful movies which are also appropriate for older children. Jingle All The Way must be one of Arnold's worst flicks, but younger kids seemed to enjoy it. A Christmas Carol I don't suggest for the little ones, plot and themes are just a bit beyond thier grasp. Overall there is something for everyone, so I do recommend this 4-for-1 bargain.

Summary: Great set of Christmas movies
Comment: I love bringing these movies out after Thanksgiving. The set was a great deal.

Summary: What A Bargain
Comment: Shop around and you will see this set generally sells for around $32. Any one of the movies easily sells for $9.99. The movies themselves are all great. "Home Alone" most people are familiar with Macauley Caulkin causing havoc on burglars. In "Jingle All the Way", Arnold Schwarzenegger goes nuts trying to buy a kid a hot new toy. George C. Scott is excellent as Ebenezer Scrooge in another version of "A Christmas Carol". The remake of "Miracle on 34th Street" is good as well. I had two of these but for this price I bought the set so I could get the other two and then give two away or donate two to a good cause.

Summary: Great bargain, but a mixed bag.
Comment: This is a great bargain. Don't get me wrong! I would buy this again if it got lost. Can't beat the price for 4 good Christmas flicks.
Although I do wish they had included a newer edition of HOME ALONE in here. This one is the older letterboxed edition that is not enhanced for widescreen TVs. If your DVD player/TV/projector has the picture zoom option like mine, you can escape the problem with the black frame all around the picture on a widescreen TV, but the resolution/picture quality is still poor, of course.
JINGLE ALL THE WAY was the same thing, despite the deceptive cover which stated that the movie on the DVD was included in both Full Frame and Anamorphic Widescreen versions. Not so! The same crippled leterboxed frame.
No complaints about either the MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET, which is presented here in beautiful Anamorphic Widescreen, or A CHRISTMAS CAROL, which, as a made for TV movie, is presented in Full Frame, maintaining the original aspect ratio.
All in all, a great deal for the money.
