    Editorial Reviews:

    This plain-vanilla version of the old Lee Falk comic strip stars Billy Zane as a 1930s incarnation of the Phantom, an African-based, masked hero whose forefathers have all donned the costume at one time or another. Sworn to crush evil, the Phantom leaves his jungle lair to venture to New York, where he takes on a charming but criminal mastermind (Treat Williams). There's no oomph to this film at all. The very capable director Simon Wincer (Phar Lap) seems to be working with a leaden production and an inferior talent pool behind the camera. The talent in front of the camera do their best, but it isn't enough. --Tom Keogh

    5 out of 5 stars Great Movie   June 12, 2009
    Adam Dahlkoetter (Ogallala, Nebraska United States)
    This movie was great. Billy Zane was great for the part of the Phantom. The setting in the early 1900s was great, made things interesting. Also the superhero costume was fantastic, loved the design.


    5 out of 5 stars The Phantom DVD   May 15, 2009
    Shirley Spiczak (Arizona)
    This is an excellent movie, with great acting and a good story line. I'm pleased with this DVD.


    4 out of 5 stars Harmless Old-Fashioned Comic Book Adventure   April 3, 2009
    Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)
    "An old-fashioned adventure yarn" is the best description of this modern-day comic book-hero-come to life-story. This is almost like one of those early Tim Burton directed-Batman type adventures without all the darkness. The language is mild, the special-effects are decent and the sound is good. Best of all is the scenery, some beautiful landscapes filmed in Thailand and Australia.

    Instead of the city being where our comic book hero performs his heroics, this is out in the jungle, more like an Indiana Jones-type story. It's fast-moving, it's hokey, it's unrealistic but its generally fun to watch. Even the villain ("Xander Drax" played by Treat Williams) isn't really all nasty.

    "The Phantom" (Billy Zane) has the normal off-and-on corny romance situation with feminist-journalist "Diana Palmer" (Kristy Swanson) and the film gives you an entertaining 100 minutes. It's no award-winner but at least it's something you watch with your kids.

    It was a new copy, which was what I ordered - the DVD is in mint condition and I'm tickled pink with my order.


    4 out of 5 stars well done movie   October 4, 2008
    Thomas Lee Mullins (Cranbury, New Jersey USA)
    It is based on the comic strip character. It is well done and produced. They did an excellent job on it.
