Not the greatest film ever made, but it'll still be nice to be sent a legit copy. - Carry on Columbus review by CF

Spoiler Alert

I have to report that I was disappointed by a DVD that you had sent me. I have had no issue with the quality of the discs you have sent before, but on this occasion I have felt it necessary to complain.

You had sent me, as I requested, a DVD of "Carry On Columbus". However, it appears that the disc sent was a bootleg/pirate copy. To start with, there was no copyright notifications printed on the physical disc - most studios have this information printed around the outside edge of the disc.

When I played the disc, my suspicions were confirmed. The original film is in 1.85:1 ratio but what was on the disc was a zoomed in (and very grainy) 4:3 picture - not even of broadcast standard for a mainstream TV viewing, as many characters faces were badly cropped out of the picture, etc.

I have returned the disc to you, and I hope you can get me a copy of the film in it's correct ratio and of viewable quality.

Better than no release at all - Carry on Columbus review by PH

As has been noted by the other reviewer the quality of this DVD isn’t great and yes it’s of dubious origin however there has been no official DVD release of this movie anywhere in the world so until there is this is better than nothing.
