Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - O. Henry would be disappointed.....
In my 8th grade English class, my students read O. Henry's "The Ransom of Red Chief," every year. The kids LOVE the story, and laugh right out loud.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - VIDEO
It's a fun family film packed with laughs.
Received it in the advertised condition.




Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The Ransom of Red Chief DVD
The video is adorable; I showed it to my students after reading the short story in class. It arrived a day late, even though I paid the extra money for quicker delivery, and the disk gets stuck and skips.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun to watch
The DVD wasn't like the story very much but it was still fun to watch. Haley Joel Osment was really cute--what a character!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ransom of Red Chief
This is a wonderful movie that can be enjoyed by all ages. I purchased it, however, to show to my English classes after reading the story and found that it veered from O. Henry's original short story too much to be able to use it as a teaching tool. Nonetheless, it is indeed more interesting than the original.
