DVD Reviews of Muhammad Ali: The Greatest
DVD Review: This Is Not The William Klein Directed Documentary
Summary: 3 Stars
I actually did not watch it once I became aware that it was not the film I was looking for. Amazon made a mistake in listing William Klein as the Director - so beware. Through some investigating I've determined that the DVD I intended to purchase is a documentary titled "Ali The Greatest: 1964-1974." I've seen clips of it and have read many very favorable reviews - it looks outstanding...DVD Review: Muhammad Ali: the greatest
Summary: 1 Stars
I was disappointed in this movie poor poor quality. skipped. its a shame because he is an was a great man.(i didnt see it before i gave feedback). passport did a poor transfer to dvd. there are better dvd`s out there.DVD Review: Genuine, valuable time capsule
Summary: 5 Stars
William Klein presents more of just a collection of footage than a narrated over-blown documentary, the early days (right before the first Liston fight) then at the second Liston fight, then in 1974 in Africa, aned I like it that way. We're able to see raw footage, most never seen before, including video of the Beatles hamming it up with Ali (before now I've seen only photographs. Klein also takes us into a Harlem high school class where kids are discussing Ali, we meet the millionaire men who guided Ali's early career, and so much more which serves as a genuine, valuable time capsule.
Also here on film is Ali doing hismost peculiar bit: while in Africa, training, sometimes he'd pretend the sparring partner was Foreman, and that he was in the big fight, losing! He'd even go so far as to fall down twice, and be counted out! Then he'd get up and say 'just kidding'....Wow.. The man was SO CONFIDENT he would even tempt fate!
DVD Review: a Must have
Summary: 5 Stars
Muhammad Ali always Moved me as a fighter&just the way the Brother spoke His mind.this Film was very direct&took clips over His Career mixed in with where He was.when it comes to Muhammad Ali you always watch if it's a Film or if it's a Book you read it. he is the Greatest.DVD Review: Duped

This is NOT the Wiilliam Klein film, contrary to what is written above.
Description of Muhammad Ali: The Greatest
There is perhaps no person in the world who is more famous than Muhammad Ali. His picture hangs in the Smithsonian institution in Washington D.C. as well as on the walls of mud huts in underdeveloped countries that have never seen a boxing match.This is the story of a man who changed the face of sports, and political action and popular culture in the twentieth century; and, who has gone on to become one of the great humanitarians of all time.
Through rare footage and photos, as well as vintage newsreels and interviews MUHAMMAD ALI: THE GREATEST is the definitive look at the three time Heavyweight Champion of the World. Taking you all the way from his early years in Louisville Kentucky to his triumphant return to the world stage at the 1966 Olympics in Atlanta, this program provides a rare glimpse at the fighter, the mouth and ultimately the man who has become a living legend.
