Having access to multi-region DVD machines I was overjoyed to be able to buy this set of movies on DVD at last. Unfortunately when the DVD set arrived I found it would not work in my main machine, which is a DVD recorder.
On checking the small print on the back of the DVD box it seems that this item [and other similar sets I ordered recently] is not manufactured to play in either DVD recorders or on PC DVD drives - it will only play on DVD players.
Luckily I can still view the movies on a regular DVD player but buyers beware if they perhaps rely on using their PCs to view their DVDs.
Otherwise would highly recommend this set. Only removing one star because of the sheer hassle of not being able to use my main machine to play it.

These films are spin-offs of the popular television series produced in the sixties to cash in on the worldwide phenomenum U.N.C.L.E. became.In many ways these films surpass the episodes they are taken from.There are subtle plot changes,different or expanded characters,and the audience are treated as adults with american television restrictions lifted.There are scenes of very brief nudity and implied sexuality which are missing from the television episodes.These films are almost a potted history of U.N.C.L.E. from it"s serious cold war beginnings to it"s campy decline,then all too sudden ending after trying to return to it"s serious roots.The picture quality and sound are better than VHS,but only adequate for a modern dvd release.A lot of serious remastering needs to be done.When it is,this will be an exceptional set of discs.These films serve to remind us of how good U.N.C.L.E. actually was and examples of how a well thought out and mature approach can actually lead to a spin-off surpassing the series it came from.These films are a nostalgic reminder of a great series,yet very different to what we orginally watched on television.
Really good collection of all 8 uncle movies. Minus 1 star as the picture quality is not 100% (check the WB website and it does state that this collection hasn't been remastered and is taken from the best masters available). Plays on my region 2 blu ray and UK ps3 as well!
