This brings back fond memories of childhood Saturday afternoons at the movies. A few serials and cartoons and a good action movie! The production values are of course rough by today's standards, but it has an original charm and I'm enjoying the series.

If your really into Superman then you have to have this dvd in your collection. Its a bit corny compared to what we see these days on the big screne but for its time it was great viewing. I had it on VHS but these days you have to have everything on DVD. Much better viewing

Don't let the positive reviews fool you. The "Superman" serials are poorly made and not even good for laughs. Kirk Alyn looks OK as the Man of Steel, but gives a rather cheesy performance. I'll stick with George Reeves.

Superman - The 1948 & 1950 Theatrical Serials Collection This was a excellently presented package we really enjoyed it. Although it could of had a bit more on the extras side of things as not many people realise there was a Superman show before George Reeves it would have been good to see some interviews & archival material from the time . Overall we loved it .
