1998 Olympic Hockey Highlights
Released in DVD by Image Entertainment (24 November, 1998)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Starring: Olympic Gold-1998
Average review score:

disappointing to a hockey nut
1st, this is both womens and mens hockey. It is devided nearly in half. While womens hockey is comming along, it cannot match the intensity or the excitment of the mens game which leads to the 2nd problem with this dvd. CBS apparently thought that since the US didnt win a medal, why really bother to do much with the DVD. With many other hockey video's even though we know the outcome the video's will atempt to build up tension and excitement. There is NONE here. It is a poorly conceived and put together DVD and no worth the price tag.

Disappointing yes, but fun to watch!
I think this video didn't show enough about the US Women's team. Remind me, WHO won the gold? That's what I thought. The men's team was only good at trashing hotel rooms while the women went out there and played with their hearts. I would have preferred the whole video to be about the women's team. While I agree that the NHL is more exciting, it was the women who made the USA proud in Nagano.


Bull Busters: The All-Stars of Rodeo
Released in DVD by Goldhil Home Media (14 November, 2000)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Average review score:

Some Good Highlights But Not Really Worth It
Bull Busters: The All-Stars of Rodeo has some exciting rodeo moments, but I wouldn't suggest it to big rodeo fans. While some highlights are funny to watch and keep you on the edge of your seat, the bloopers could be better, and the movie leaves out some of my favorite rodeo stars.

Great DVD
Bull Busters is a great DVD for any type of rodeo fan, it has great picture, and great rides, anybody who appreciates rodeo will appreciate this DVD


Nitan Bo Combat Stick Fighting

MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Average review score:

DVD blank, returned to company five weeks ago, not replaced
I ordered the DVD over five weeks ago. I recieved the DVD
and tried to play but it was blank. I called the company and they said to send it to them. They knew a batch of DVD's were blank.
Over five weeks later I have not recieved a replacement, a letter or anything. I was ripped off. I would be happy to recant my statement if the DVD shows up in my mailbox and write a glowing review about it. So maybe this would get the company to send me the replacement DVD or send me a refund check. DO NOT BUY THIS DVD!!!!!

They finally sent me the DVD
They finally sent me the DVD and it is not blank. Please disregard the first statement I made. It did take them three months to replace it, but I did recieve it. The sound quality
is a little rough, but the picture quality is better than most
of the training videos I've seen.

The Power of Uechi Ryu Karate
Released in DVD by Pro-Active Entertain (25 March, 2003)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Average review score:

Don't Buy This!
I ordered this DVD because my daughter takes this type of karate and I wanted a guide to help her learn the routines, which can get complicated. However, the quality of this DVD is COMPLETELY unacceptable -- it's so dark and pixilated in most places that one cannot even see what is happening. It is truly awful, and totally unwatchable. If there was a negative stars rating I would have used that -- I hate to give this even one star. I have written to Amazon and suggested they remove this piece of, well, you know, from their site to avoid disappointing more customers.

Very well pleased!
I just got done watching this DVD and can't understand why someone would give it such a low and negative rating. I don't see any problem with the quality, it's not digital, but so what.
I found it to be well orchestrated and highly informative about the Uechi Ryu style and the history of it's techniqes. It teaches alot about the style and as I said before the quality is fine and completely acceptable.


Third Down: Krispy
Released in DVD by Ventura Distribution (28 May, 2002)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Average review score:

Worst of the three, and that's bad
Unless you absolutely love urban trials, this video is not worth the time and effort to order it, let alone the price.

This video has a feel about it that the makers were trying to maximize profits by minimizing costs. There are only a couple of locales that are used, one is what appears to be somebody's back yard that they made into a dirt jumping course. There's that and some hucking off of the same sort of cliff, a little bit of technical downhill, and alot of urban trials, lots of jumping down stairs.

If you want to see a well balanced video, get either the latest in the New World Disorder or Kranked series. This was a bigger disapointment than Star Wars:Episode 1.

L-A-M-E, weak, generally not very good
Let's see, a couple of riders in a couple of places doing a couple of things, that about sums it up. All of the different forms of riding seem to be done at the exact same places, there's a dirt jump course in somebody's back yard (I'm not kidding) some guys hucking off of the same sort of cliffs, Evil Dave breaking a dual crown fork after not making a MX-assisted jump, and the most promising part is camera work on a technical downhill section, but the camera moves away instead of with the riders so the effect seems wasted.

This movie (unless you just LOVE urban trials) is a definate DO NOT buy. The music is sub par, riding is the same thing over and over, one shot is a jump normal speed, the next shot (no, I'm not kidding) is the same jump in slow motion. Krispy needs to give these guys the slip because he's more talented than this movie shows.

Fat Tire Fury is still my favorite MTB movie, best riding, best locations, best music.

------------------------
If you're looking to see Bender hucking more cliffs you better start looking elswewhere. Krispy does make his normal appearance, but this time the cliff-dropping was kept to perhaps 2/5 of the movie. But before you start weeping like a little girl, Third down rises leaps and bounds above the previous movies because of this (at least for us city-dwellers). What you will see on this movie is an astounding blend of trials and freeriding in the urban arena. It is about time for urban riding to start taking some of the spotlight. I would only give this movie 4 stars since Contact (crfilms) is still the best place to go for urban/trials but since so few movies have yet to devote much time to urban I will go ahead and give it five stars.


The 2002 Olympic Games - Olympic Highlights
Released in DVD by Ventura Distribution (09 April, 2002)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
This 90-minute package captures highlights from NBC-TV's coverage of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games. First seen as a salve in the wake of a bribery scandal and terrorist attacks, the games in Salt Lake City turned out to be a record-smashing triumph for the American team. Some of the memorable moments preserved here are the spectacular halfpipe and ski jumping, third-generation Olympian Jim Shea Jr.'s emotional victory in the skeleton, Apolo Anton Ohno's adventures in the frenetic short-track speed skating, the controversy surrounding Canadians Jamie Sale and David Pelletier in the pairs figure skating, and Sarah Hughes's upset victory in women's figure skating.

Unfortunately, covering 17 days and 24 sports in such a limited time means that most of the individual runs and the opening and closing ceremonies are edited. In addition, Bob Costas's constant narration might not be for everyone, and skating fans will be disappointed to hear New Agey music accompanying the routines in place of the competition music. --David Horiuchi

Average review score:

How disappointing!
It tries to cover as many events as possible but does neither justice. I also feel that it was done in such a manner as trying to be as 'politically correct' as possible as they seem to go out of their way to minimize the Americans presence in the games. They also barely mentioned any controversies.
I bought it hoping that it would cover the games from a historic perspective and give the viewer a feeling of being there. It did not mention the venues in any great detail, the city or state, or the hard work of the locals. It did not mention the commradery of the competitors that comes along every few years. It did not capalize on the thousands of feet of footage available and barely even touched on the limits of the DVD format. They told the story - but only at an arms length. Even interviews with were in the 'bonus' section of the DVD.

What a waste! I'll try the figure skating tape (which is what I'm interested in). But on VHS? Give me a break!

bad compilation
I expected this DVD to feature some complete events and it did
but it was not the original, had its own music over it and just plainly... For example, the pairs skating of both the Russian and Canadian teams, yes they were complete, but it wasn't the one seen on TV with the music that they skated to with the commnetary. It has music over it and was extremely dissapointing. If you want to remember the events for the way they happened, this DVD isn't the way to go

Best (but only) Video Scrapbook Available
A moving tribute to the games; however, I would have liked to see more event footage rather than just event highlights and those sappy human interest stories. Costas's voice is fine as narrarator (he's got my vote for the sequel too, if he wants the job). If NBC heeds the call for a follow up ("More Olympic Highlights" or "v2002.2") it would be great to see:
-more behind the scenes footage (perhaps never before aired).
-what it was like to be there: to obtain tickets and to attend an event (including traffic, bus rides, and security).
-scenes from the olympic village (athletes quarters), and olympic square/medals ceremonies (downtown).
-clips from Jay Leno's hysterical late night coverage (including "Ross the Intern's" live reports).
-medal award ceremony pagentry, awards, and concerts.
-and full coverage of sporting events including opening and closing ceremonies (even if it requires a boxed set).


Something in the Air: Extreme Skiing and Snowboarding
Released in DVD by K-Tel/Dvd (14 December, 2000)
MPAA Rating: NR (Not Rated)
Average review score:

What's in the Air is Definitely Not Applause
How can I say it? Well, it's simply the worst snowboard/ski film I've ever seen. And I have seen quite a few bombs along the way. And what makes it even worse than a typical bad snowboard movie is that it is a COLLECTION of bad snowboard/ski movies. Ok, let me explain.

Something in the Air is actually a gathering of footages from other snowboard/ski films (mostly snowboard). Think of it as a kind of greatest hits video of filmmakers who didn't have any hits. What you get is footages from FLF films, some euro clips, and other shots from videos you've never heard of. FLF is known for making some of the chezziest snowboard movies on the market. Imagine a DVD where the best footages come from FLF. That's like a basketball team where the tallest player is Danny DeVito.

What's so bad about the footages? To put it simply: the editing is poor, the music is poor, the angles that capture the riders are poor, and the terrain where the riders ride is poor. All the footages are constrained by tight budget and insufficient crew workers, and it shows.

If you've never seen a snowboard film ever, this may be an adequate choice because seeing a pro rider charging the backcountry is no laughing matter. But make note there are better choices out there. Standard Films, Mack Dawg, and Whitey films are good starts.

Old School Snowboarding
This video has some decent footage of old snowboarding circa 1994. This dvd is not for everyone. Not bad if you dont mind some skiing mixed with some dumb commentary.A good history lesson on what snowboards used to look like in the old days.

Something in the Air
Produced by Mike Strassman of EPN fame, this movie traces the differences between Old School (Carving) and New School ( Freestyle) snowboarding.

It also visits some of the best terrain and shows some of the best "First Descents" in Alaska I have seen.

The DVD includes some excellent terrain park action for both skiers and snowboarders.

Definitely worth having on the shelf if you enjoy extreme action.


21st Century NFL Follies
Released in DVD by United Services (30 October, 2001)
MPAA Rating: Unrated
Viewers of programs produced by NFL Films know what to expect: subtle slo-mo shots of lofty passes and elegant catches and plenty of grinding yet graceful ground action showcasing the best blockers and tacklers ever to wear cleats. That trademark lyrical action is bypassed for this film, which showcases the NFL's most profound bumbling, fumbling, tripping, and tumbling. Some trademark aspects of NFL Films persist, but this production amounts to a diabolically assembled bloopers reel. In addition to scenes of improbable disasters on the field (and even a hilarious shot of a receiver running out of bounds and getting hopelessly entangled in a kicker's practice net), there is plenty of bizarre atmospheric material, including a brilliant montage showing inflatable halftime show props that manage to deflate at precisely the wrong times. Microphones on players and coaches capture some bizarre banter during games, such as the Baltimore Ravens' massive lineman Tony Siragusa boasting to a referee that he's been dieting and encouraging all within earshot to "check out my ass when I walk away." Clips of insane fans (yes, the dreaded "face painters"), a truly boneheaded play with half a dozen laterals culminating in a disastrously climactic fumble, and a sampling of languid end-zone dances also contribute to a very hip and funny look at pro football. --Robert J. McNamara
Average review score:

21st Century NFL Follies not what I had hoped.
I had my hopes up for a bunch of "old fashioned bellylaughs", and there were a few, but not nearly as many as I had anticipated. There were too many minutes spent wondering if I should fast forward through the slow parts. I didn't, but if I watch it again I will use that FFWD button and cut it down to about 30 minutes out of the 60. This is for the diehard fan only.
