"Other reviews have treated this DVD fairly, both in its good and bad points. The worst of all, as has been noted, is that for some foolish reason, A&E cut an hour out of the production. To add insult to injury the very first scene of the making of featurette shows a scene that does not appear in the American version. Finally, why is there no captioning or subtitling in this DVD? Does A&E not care for the hearing impaired or those who don't understand the language of the period and might benefit from the subtitles? My wife is Japanese and can easily follow Brit dramas when she has subtitles to read. Another of my friends is hearing impaired, and neither could enjoy this dvd. I note the british video cassette has captions--wasn't able to find the information for the DVD."

"Good Movie, average UMD. Positives: Scene selection, good picture quality, great at times. Negatives: A black strip is on top and on the bottom of the picture, as if you were watching it on a regular T.V. Otherwised it would have been great. "

"A bit of information to add to J. Bowring's most helpful review: Amazon.co.uk sells both this cut-down A&E version of the series and the full four-hour BBC version. HOWEVER if you search on 'The Last King' you will find only the A&E title you see here. Why? Because the BBC release is titled simply 'Charles II.' Film distributors learned the hard way that when American audiences see a number after a title they assume it is a sequel! So British releases like this or 'Edward VII' and 'Madness of George III' are retitled for American release."

"I saw this movie on hbo in the 1980's when i was a kid. It was a pretty good movie about a woman becoming a successful racer. I think that the movie was good and the acting was superb. And i did watch this movie over and over again. "
