DVD Reviews of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2004

DVD Review: SI is the greatest about bikini girls
Summary: 5 Stars

SI swimsuit is the finest. This DVD was film in the US. Nice.

DVD Review: SI 04
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is the best Swimsuit that there has ever been. Marisa Miller takes the screen. Really all I watch is Idaho ( think thats it I forgot). and the body painting, Because these are the only section Marisa is in. hehe. Marisa Miller was the 1 reason I bought this dvd. I strongly recommend it to anyone.

DVD Review: Very Sexy! Especially the Body Painting!
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched this video in mixed company and I ended up liking it much more than I thought I would. The movie is hosted by Melissa Keller, who is a cute-as-a-button blonde supermodel who wears a two-piece string bikini while she's hosting (which was OK by me), and Jake Johannsen, a bearded comedian who says the stupid sexist things that every guy is thinking, but that Melissa dismisses as she quickly cuts to the next scene.

Of the segments with bikinis, my favorite was the first where Marissa Miller and Melissa Keller both wake up early near Iowa cornfields - and wear gauzy see-through top swimsuits - where the girls might as well have been topless for all that was revealed. But the women soldier on despite the cold and lack of sleep, and they genuine appear to enjoy what they're doing, as do the rest of the girls in this video.

There's a nice segment with Anna Kournikova and Serena Williams also in swimsuits. Anna looked every bit as good in a white bikini as she did on the wall poster in my baby brother's room. And Serena looked like a younger - and just as sexy -- version of Tina Turner! She has Tina's great hips - and Tina's million dollar legs. (Must've come from all that tennis, huh?)

To commemorate the 40th Anniversary Swimsuit Edition (of the magazine), a Who's Who of ex-swimsuit models was assembled, including Elle McPherson, Paulina Porozkova, Christie Brinkley, Tyra Banks, and my favorite, Cheryl Tiegs. Elle especially looked great (as she does modeling her lingerie line which is available here on Amazon). Cheryl, unfortunately, was starting to age a bit, but parts of her - her magnificent breasts, especially - were every bit as beautiful peeking out over her banded-waistband swimsuit as they did when she emerged from the water in a similar outfit years-ago on the cover of SI (Sports Illustrated).

The sexiest scene, though, was the body painting segment where selected girls endure eight hours to have their bathing suits painted on. It must've been pretty tiresome to stand for that length of time without moving. And the funny parts of the scene come when the women also inform us that it's necessary to shave every bit of hair, and when one girl - Melissa, I believe - squirms when the artists apply that last bit of paint deeply between her cheeks! Amazingly, when their painted bikinis are done, it's actually hard to tell that the girls are completely naked underneath. Fortunately, the women with the perkiest breasts were selected to undergo this transformation, so they look every bit as supported as they would've if their bathing suit tops had been real!

Like many videos of this type, there aren't any lengthy views of the girls in selected poses (other than the still photographs flashed on screen). Everything seems like behind-the-scenes footage. So if you were to imagine watching a documentary on how to shoot a `Sports Illustrated' Swimsuit magazine edition, I think you'll know what to expect. I ended up liking this disc a lot! I hope you will too!

DVD Review: Numbnut host alongside Melissa Keller
Summary: 3 Stars

Melissa Keller and her joke of a comedian sidekick [Jake Johannsen] head up this years swimsuit fiesta to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Swimsuit Special, which is aptly titled "American Beauty"

DVD Content... Once again for the 2004 DVD the quality is right up there with previous years. Some of the hottest ladies in the land of freedom fighters turn up for this years show off, and amoungst all the bad jokes from Johannsen the other talent is pretty damn good. Once again repeat performances from Melissa herself, Molly Sims, Bridget Hall and last years cover Petra Nemcova really fill your screen with fantastic images. In addition guest appearances from tennis aces Serena Williams and Anna Kornikova really like to steam up the camera with their saucy off court attire. The disc also features a fantastic "Hall of Fame" chapter which takes us back to the girls who made the SI Swimsuit specials legendary, including Christie Brinkley, Tyra Banks and Australia's favourite "Body", Elle MacPherson.

DVD Quality... There's nothing bad about this disc at all, if it's entirely possible it could be better quality than last years disc. Just sit back and enjoy the show.

Overview... The only thing that is really dissapointing with these SI Swimsuit editions is the choice of host, or in this case the co-host. Why do they keep hiring these supposedly funny comedians?? Does the SI team want to degrade the quality of presentation? Melissa Keller could have done a fantastic job [like Rachel Hunter from last year] in providing the useful information to viewers without the pathetic comic sidekick. It's best to turn the volume off for those portions of the show and feast your eyes on Ms Keller.

Enjoy!

DVD Review: A Sad Excuse...
Summary: 1 Stars

for a Swimsuit DVD. The same boring shlock they've been feeding us for years, and I own all of SIs videos since 1996 (so that makes me the idiot, I guess). Want a fresh look at swimsuit dvds? Check out Maxim's new DVD. A better value for the dollar.
