If you don't understand the beauty and cinematic bliss of a giant flying radioactive turtle then move on. Spin on Gamera! Get this and the latest movie about the baby Gamera. It is very cute and well done. August 25, 2008

While the old Gamera movies has some really cheesy fx this ones are just great. Even better than some of the newer Godzilla ones. The stories are quite interesting and get better with each movie. The extras are pretty funny and enjoyable. Gamera is a tough monster, kinda like the John Mclane if kaiju. Takes a beating and just keeps going! July 29, 2007

The first movie is rather slow. But the second one is pretty freaking awesome, especially if you activate language Track 3!! Texarcana Lake Gamera is one of the funniest things I've ever seen/heard. More like "What's Up, tigerlily?" than Mystery science theater, they redubbed the entire movie except for the main female character in redneck voices and altered the script to hilarious effect while still following the general storyline. It's rare that something will make me laugh sitting watching it by myself but this one had me chuckling throughout. I could have done without about 50 of the "Holy Crap!" dubs that were WAY overused but some of the things were so clever that I forgive them this one excess. The General that sounded like George Bush was hilarious, the one who was dubbed with the voice of a 7 year old boy was insane and the radioman that just says "Kyuh Kyuh Kyuh" like Roscoe P. Coltrane from the "Dukes of Hazzard" was genius. I have yet to watch the third film but I have no doubt the commentary by Gamera will be amusing. Unless it's just Gamera screaming through the whole movie in which case it will only be amusing for about 30 seconds. So if you like Wild Turkey, Bar B Que, Guns and your sister a little too much this is definitely the box set for you! March 14, 2007

Even the most causal fans of the "giant Japanese monster movies" that were staples of 1960s "creature features" will delight in this three disc set! Gamera gets an incredible updating while retaining the "turtle cry", the flaming breath, the flight by spinning shell; in short, everything we loved in a package that is slick, skillful and dazzling. A triumph on all levels, with stories kids can still enjoy, while being more mature than the original films were. If only all movies could be this well done. February 2, 2007

I haven't seen the Giant Turtle since I was a kid, I LOVE these new movies!
I had the 60's ones on DVD, but the special effects on the 3 new movies was out of this world!
If you are a Godzilla Fan then you'll LOVE Gamera!!! January 10, 2007
