DVD Reviews of Richard Simmons: 80's Blast-Off
DVD Review: waste of money!
Summary: 1 Stars
Don't waste your money on this one. I purchased it thinking this was going to be like the disco dvd (fun with music I knew) however, it was short, the steps were horrible, I had never heard of any of the songs (I grew up in the 80's so I expected Top 40 songs) I would skip this purchase if I were you. Mine is actually going into the rummage sale pile.DVD Review: Love it!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I read the other reviews before buying this, so I couldn't wait to compare the negative remarks with what I saw. The 2 most noted negative remarks are completely false in my opinion. Richard is still his typical happy self, and the camera does not pay any more attention to the busty woman in red and yellow than it does anyone else. I think it's just more noticeable with her because she's the only one with cleavage, but had I not read it, I wouldn't have ever noticed this as standing out. The workout does its job - it gets you moving and burning fat and it works. It's definitely challenging if you haven't exercised in a while and have a lot of pounds to lose, but the 30 minutes is not too long and flies by. True that there is no instruction and he jumps right into it, so it does take a few times to get the hang of it, but that is appreciated once you know what you're doing so it's not a big deal. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the music could have been way better outside of "Maniac." Other than that there is "Upside Down" and "Freeway of Love" plus 2 completely unrecognizable 80s-sounding songs. But overall, I love it.DVD Review: A fun way to exercise
Summary: 3 Stars
I was satisfied with my purchase because it's only about 30 minutes long and that's about all the time I have to spare. This is the 3rd Richard Simmons cd that I own. I have fun with it.DVD Review: Quick and easy exercise
Summary: 5 Stars
I like the music, the moves, and it makes the 30 min exercise go fast. I also like that it does not have beginner stuff...where the instructor spends time explaining the moves, their benefit, etc. I have several workout videos like that, and after about the 5th time of hearing the same info and waiting for the workout to actually start, I quit using them!DVD Review: Don't bother
Summary: 1 Stars
While I love Richard Simmons, after I bought the DVD I was completely discouraged, it just jumps right into the workout, he gives you no instruction & you feel completely lost. I have purchased his other workouts in the past & they were great but this one was not worth the money I paid for it.
