Ronald Reagan - The Great Communicator (Complete Set)

Starring:Ronald Regan-Great Communicator
Studio: Mpi Home Video
Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Ronald Reagan: The Great Communicator edits together over 100 clips of Ronald Reagan speaking--including television appearances, press conferences, addresses of Congress and the U.N., speeches at political conventions, and even a few snippets from his movie career--into four 90- to 120-minute themed retrospectives: One is an overview of his presidential career; one portrays his stance against the Soviet Union; one pulls together his inspirational view of America; and one is devoted to his humor. There's no narration or interviews with other politicians or aides; this is 100%, pure unadulterated Reagan, boiled down to pithy, punchy sound bites (as well as an archive of 28 lengthier excerpts). Pop-up boxes provide a smidgeon of historical context and there is nothing unflattering (no hint of the Iran/Contra scandal, for example). However, the sampling demonstrates his gift for using stories and jokes to illustrate his political points, as well as his undeniable skill as a speaker. Devotees of the 40th president will treasure this document. --Bret Fetzer

Ronald Reagan - the Great Communicator - Complete Set.......2007-03-11

I purchased this set for a Christmas gift - it was supposed to be a 2 disc set - only one disc is included - after several attempts, and 3 replacements from Amazon that still only have one disc, I am asking for a full refund - buyer beware.

NOT WHAT I ORDERED.......2007-02-19

All I got was ONE DVD, I thought I ordered the complete set. They sent me another set, but it still only the first DVD. That was over a month ago (and I was supposed to return the previous one I had, but won't until I get what I paid for.) and this site is so stupid that they don't have easy to find areas to contact. So maybe this review will wake somebody up so I can get what I paid for, before they lose me as a customer. I am starting to get extremely ticked!

For Reagan Fans!.......2007-01-10

We bought this as a gift for a friend who loves everything 'Reagan'.

He thinks it is great. Seven and one half hours of Reagan. WOW. I can't say it is my thing, but he loves it.

So I guess that means I can recommend it :)

Incomplete Set.......2006-12-20

I ordered two copies for gifts - both copies were missing DISC TWO! This looks like a common problem. I hope I get my replacements with both DVDs!
I would rate the content higher when I get to see the whole thing - DISC 1 was excellent!

Ronald Reagan set.......2006-09-10

I have had to send it back twice. Once because disc two was omitted from the set. Second because when disc two finally came it was severely defective. Please do a better job of checking the materials you send for completeness and lack of defects.

Unhappy customer, Bruce Henderson
