Rating:  - No problem
No problem with the description nor the service. I will probably be a repeat customer.
Rating: - Columbo is Awesome
I have purchased all of the Columbo movies. Peter Falk was really just the best at this type of role. The stories are a little "thin" compared to what we are used to, but just watching Columbo go through his routines is amazing.
Rating: - The Man In The Rumpled Raincoat

Rating:  - Five-sixths of the compilation are worthy Columbo's
Five of the six installments in Columbo's fourth season are worthy additions to the detective's almost forty years of sleuthing.
"An Exercise in Fatality" sports he-man actor Robert Conrad as a Jack Lalanne-type that does away with partner who threatens to reveal his underhanded business practices. Though not a classic, it does have a smile-inducing undoing of the villain.
"Negative Reaction" gives funnyman Dick Van Dyke a chance to show his dastardly side as a famous ... Read More
