DVD Reviews of Number Ones

DVD Review: Well I Feel Ripped Off!
Summary: 1 Stars

I'm not criticising Michael Jackson here, and the fact that there are no commentaries on these film clips or interviews with Michael, he probably has no idea this con job of a DVD collection was even released.

The whole problem and feeling that I was ripped off comes from the fact that they do not mention on the packaging anywhere and especially with the track listing, that these film clips on here are either not the versions played on TV in the 80s etc, or if they are, they have been severely edited with huge chunks cut away. There's a few still in their original version including his (and music's) greatest film clip of all time Thriller. What's going on with the rest though? If they need room get rid of the fillers like Blood on the Dance Floor (a song so bad even Michael stuggles to dance to it and spends most of the film clip sitting on a chair).

They should have listed the tracks that aren't the real or full versions with brackets such as with Smooth Criminal (crappy low budget doesn't resemble in any way the one you remember version) Bad (shorter starts half way though actual film clip), Black and White (controversial vandalism of car, panther turning into scenes not included) etc If they were honest and did this only the hardcore Michael Jackson fans who already have the other longer film clip versions would buy this so they have these alternative versions. The rest of the public who expect the same version they saw on their TV screens back inthe 80s and so forth wouldn't feel ripped off. Everyone would be happy!

Of course if the record company actually did that they'd make less money, but that would have been the moral thing to do.

If you can get this for $2 or something and you don't plan on getting other Jackson DVDs it's worth getting for Thriller then its worth getting. The sheer rehearsals and shooting takes it would have taken to make that masterpiece with all the zombies choreography exactly in line, leaving the ground at the same time etc is phenomenal. DVD tracks are in chronological order of his career but you know even the menu screen is pretty average. With no features it might as well have been a video, there's no advantage except skipping to the track you want instead of fast forwarding.

Yeah you probably want to give this a miss, don't get ripped off!

DVD Review: king of music
Summary: 5 Stars

you name it and Michael Jackson has done it period. he came and conqured music and video. this collection of the dvd highlights why he lead the charge on mtv. the music is still great regardless of the videos. but the added visual takes it all to a whole different level. a Once in a lifetime musical force.

DVD Review: Music Lover
Summary: 5 Stars

I already owned this DVD myself. My sister saw it and she loved it and I purchased it for her as a gift. If you love MJ, this DVD should be part of your MJ collection.

DVD Review: Took me back to the 80's
Summary: 5 Stars

Love It!! Took me back to my High school days! I miss the talent that is not in the new videos on Mtv! Michael Jackson was and is Great!

DVD Review: Essential compilation even if only 3 new videos because . . .
Summary: 5 Stars

. . . just like on my ipod i like to have BOTH the shortened radio edits AND the full album versions. Sometimes we're in the "radio" mood or having something on the tv in the background at a party when you want constant music and a new song every 3 minutes. Then, OTHER times we want to sit down and watch, for example, the 18 minute "BAD" like it's a short film or tv episode on DVD and go "hey that's cool how they can make a big work out of just a music video." Having said that, it's a marvel just that MJ is one of how many? artists who can have a compilation of all #1s and the price of this DVD very fine. For someone who doesn't want all his videos but simply a handfull of his best, THIS what you want. These are his best all in one place and THAT is what the purpose of a compilation is. Most of the bad reviews are probably from fans bitter because the DVD licencers trick us by releasing things in segements and redundantly so we keep paying for the same videos repeadedly for only 3 new. (I do wish they would just release a box set of everything but this is the way it goes.
