to be honest, the acting and direction is awful. Capt Marvel usually looks left, then right before flying; The dialogue sounds like they are reading. In one scene, the villain is hiding on the running board of the car Betty is driving, then opens the door, points a gun at her telling her to move over and she does this so matter-of- factly as if she is expecting this. She is not at all surprised there is someone there.The flying and stunts are great! Tom Tyler looks the part, but short on dialogue. The cave set looks a bit phony. Billy Batson smiles for no reason. Whitey is a very good sidekick. Reed Hadley's voice is excellent as always and his acting is very professional. John Davidson is believable and I liked his acting. The henchmen's hats stay on during the fight scenes, just like cowboy westerns, but the actual fights seemed to be staged well. The story was very good; it carried my interest in each chapter. The cliffhangers were probably the best of all serials. They really made you want to see the next one. The music was absolutely wonderful. I can close my eyes and hear the sound of strings when Captain Marvel flies. Although I report some negative aspects, I can understand that this is the best serial. I still love it and will buy some DVD's for gifts. I know quiet a few people who will love them.
