Relaxing to watch.

Rating: 4
Maybe there are no computer generated stunts in these movies and the plots are a little old fashioned, but it's a pleasure to watch films which do not assault your senses with car chases, explosions, sexual abandon of every stripe, or buckets of blood. It's also fun to watch Margaret Rutherford ham it up as Miss Marple.

A "Must Have" for Margaret Rutherford Fans.

Rating: 5
Margaret Rutherford's "Miss Marple" films are my favorite - especially "Murder Ahoy" (Lionel Jeffries is a joy to watch in this one). My sister and I have watched these movies over and over and have never become tired of them. Our only regret is that there are only four in the series. The casting, directing, wardrobe, musical score and locations are perfect. You can buy the CD set or you can buy VHS individually. If you love her - don't miss this.

Miss Marple.

Rating: 5
I allways like her even when i was young. And i like how she finds the Murder before the Police and how she is going by it.

Delightful Rutherford!.

Rating: 5
These are my favorite Miss Marple films even though Margaret Rutherford's character is nothing like the "real" Miss Marple. Three of the films are loosely based on Agatha Christie novels, however.

Margaret Rutherford is delightful. She is the reason I enjoy this series so much. My friends and I rented these films in the 1970s - before VCRs. I later recorded the movies from TV. This summer I was happy to find the DVDs for a very reasonable price on Amazon - only $27.49 at the time with free shipping.

The satirical cover illustrations alone are worth the price!

Miss Marple Collection.

A whole bunch of fun. A Miss Marple with lots of fight in her, who loves a little beer. You can't beat Margaret Rutherford as a feisty Miss Marple who will try anything to solve a mystery.
