A Fun Thrill-Ride From Beginning To End
Many can remember watching this video as a little kid or a teenager and loving it. Luckily, it is still one of the greatest musical/visual spectacles out there. But be warned, while the film is still magical, it may seem a bit to some like going back to Disney World for adults who watched the film as a child. Amazing, but not like it was at the time. The video is pretty timeless, but the best of special effects then may not have the wow-effect today.The review may be broken down into each section of the video. This film contains:-'Man In The Mirror' [concert footage/tribute to great peacemakers]-'A Retrospective Of 24 Years Of Hits' [history as of 1988]-'Badder' [cute kiddie remake of 'Bad']-'Speed Demon' [CLAYMATION sequence}-'Leave Me Alone' [short film]-'Smooth Criminal' [the 45-minute feature]-'Come Together' [concert at the end of SMOOTH CRIMINAL]- and as the 'THE MOON IS WALKING' song played through the credits by an African group called Ladysmith Black Mombazo.- Man In The Mirror is a great 'BAD' concert recap which successfully gives the respect to former men and women who have 'made that change' while showing off Michael's undoubtable charisma onstage. Uses a good bit of the split screen technique, which was a revolution back then.- The look back at the '24' years of Michael's history is great. It traces 'ABC' to 'BAD' flawlessly, with some neat high-tech transition animations aiding it and gives lots of hard to find clips of little Michael. Nice little set up of memoirs and newer memories like 'Thriller', 'Beat It', and 'The Way You Make Me Feel'.- The 'Badder' features a group of little kids in a mini-Michael Jackson bad cover. It's flat out cute, and the kiddies do a good job. You still get the feeling that no one does it like Michael.- 'Speed Demon' is cute and is a comical view of what Michael's life is like with his tremendous fame. The segment combines CLAYMATION with live action fairly well. The short features "Spike" the rabbit, as well as an all-star cast being spoofed by the CLAYMATION creators. Very cute!- 'Leave Me Alone' is a classic short film. The bizarre carnival theme laughably, yet with a severe undertone shows the rollercoaster ride which the Tabloid and media have locked Michael Jackson into. Sometimes scary, sometimes funny or cute - the piece is unique and meant to mock and illustrate the bogus media mayhem.- 'Smooth Criminal' is, though I won't spoil it, full of awesome dancing and an adorable adventure. Michael Jackson, Joe Pesci, and son of legend John Lennon - Sean Lennon. The music video portion is beyond belief and your kids will be trying to mimic it eternally. The action/adventure storyline is fun (a bit corny), but meaningfully set against drugs. A sort of blend between Star Wars and E.T.- 'Come Together' is an awesome performance. The Beatles hit is performed with much enthusiasm and forms a nice triumphant little ending.- The credits and behind the scenes selection is also very nice. The sort of chant is accompanied by the group doing some cute little dance with bits of Michael and graphic element sequences dispersed through out.Altogether A GREAT family film that adults will love and children will cherish. Catches your attention and keeps you happy throughout. You'll LOVE it!- AnDie

You've been hit by a Smooth Criminal
I grew up watching this video and recently lost the disc, so I purchased it from Amazon so my son could finally see it. He sat down and enjoyed watching the video. I would recommend purchasing digital videos from Amazon because it is a fast, smooth, easy process

Put it in my DVD player worked fine. Started off with a lot of videos
got it for my daughter. Delivery was 2 day. She opened it and said dad it is a Japanese disc. No wear did I see it was listed as an import. Put it in my DVD player worked fine. Started off with a lot of videos. I then thought this was not the trailer for the movie I seen on YouTube. Looked at other Amazon reviews then found movie was 35 minutes into DVD. Well good news it is in English and my daughter did like it. Since no USA copies are available and I never seen it do not see are know where there is any missing parts of the original release in the USA.
