Summary: I want more...
Review: I recorded two Michael Jordan videos, one of 'em was "Come Fly with Me", many years ago (on a betamax!) and watched it over and over. Several years and Bull's championships later, I got this DVD and it is one of my best buys of the summer! I liked the MJ moves and plays as well as the backstage drama a lot. Watching this DVD wants you to beg for more, as I can still remember seeing some spectacular MJ moves, but did not appear on this DVD set (like when he hovers like a helicopter before laying the ball gently into the hole). I also wish they have the full versions of the Dunk contests.
His recent foray into the NBA (not a subject of the DVD), while he did contribute to the team significantly on the court, is somewhat a small tragedy for the MJ fan, as he has lost a step and the springs on his legs (and he might have been too harsh to some of his teammates). One reminisces how he used to blow by his defenders with such grace and ease.

Summary: MUST HAVE For ANY Michael Jordan Fan!
Review: I'm a huge Michael Jordan fan and would've bought all the movies contained in this DVD collection seperately anyway so the concept of fitting all the the old VHS tapes onto 2 discs is great value.
The quality of the movies is excellent, the sound as well. The extra features are fantastic offering short video highlights of Jordan's top ten assists, dunks and passes, as well as dunk comp highlights and nice pieces of footage of Jordan's 10 most significant matches in the NBA. The "It's Gotta Be The Shoes" feature is somewhat of a let down as I was expecting the individual commerceials themselves rather than a backstage look at them. Otherwise, this DVD is perfect!
This is a must have for any Jordan fan!!!!

Summary: Great Collection...Lousy Dolby Audio for Home Theater Fans
Review: If you are a MJ Fan this collection is quite appealing. Having owned virtually everything that is MJ on VHS, I was stoked to see such a great collection come to a single DVD set. It contains all of his best video releases and nice bonus coverage.

*Come Fly with me
*MJ's Playground
*Airtime
*Above & Beyond
*His Airness
*A load of special features like :
1. Greatest Dunks
2. Greatest Clutch Shots
3. Best commercials
4. Slam Dunk highlights
5. Ton's more

From a collection standpoint this DVD is fantastic. The reason I marked it down is due to the terrible Dolby Digital conversion. In Dolby the entire collection echos like in a tin can...it's bad trust me...to the point where you have to switch to pro logic sound to approach normality. This was very disappointing after seeing and hearing the MJ to the Max - IMAX conversion to DVD which sounds great in Dolby Digital.

If having digital sound is not important to you than get the collection.....

If you are a Home Theater Fan you'll be disappointed.

Summary: Missing Jordan
Review: In the last weeks since the 2003-04 NBA season ended, the Pistons have been crowned champs, Phil has moved back to the mountains, Shaq is dipping into the Atlantic Ocean, and Kobe is still being heralded as the current Michael Jordan. All of this makes me feel only one thing. I miss watching Michael Jordan play basketball. I miss him on and off the court as an NBA fan. I wish they would stop crowning future Michael Jordans. There is only one. And this is his DVD collection. If you want to be reminded of what greatness in basketball is, get this DVD. Watch it, remember the good times, and once again love basketball.

Summary: What else? It was ULTIMATE!!
Review: Man, I've been a MJ's fan since 1989 when i first picked up a basketball. I've been collecting lots of MJ's stuff for a long time, even shoes i've got 100+ pairs and I've got 3 of the 5 VHS of MJ's series, but this one has to be the best, with MJ's top 10's for assists, dunks, pass, and all.. This has to be the best deal ever on Amazon for a DVD, don't miss it. I saw it first at a friend- Nat's house, and I told myself that "I'm gonna get meself one of this and along with Jordan to the Max". The way how all the moves were compiled together are just awesome, and the graphics are just the BEST!!! This is just the best DVD I've ever saw.

Some of the footages were just wonderful, there were so many great memories of the games from the greatest basketball player, and he is one that exemplified it all and it were all kept in this 2 discs pack. I urge anyone of you who has a poster, a card, a pair of AJ or any apparel of MJ, this WILL COMPLETE what you have. GB.

Summary: Keep on keepin' on...
Review: Michael Jordan is the sickest baller of all time. And this anthology chronicles his steps and everything. It's a must-have for anybody who loves and lives the game of basketball. That's about it. 'Nuff said.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: UUUUUFF!!!!... ¡What a Spectacular Move By Michael Jordan!..
Review: Si quieren saber quien fue Micheal Jordan este compilado de videos reunidos en dos discos de DVD son lo mejor. Te muestra a Jordan al 100% y deja en claro que es el mejor de todos los tiempos. Jordan, Jordan y mas Jordan. Recomendable 100%.

Los DVD's recorren la vida de Michael desde sus inicios como un novato, hasta la legenda lanzando ese "último" tiro para ganar el campeonato de 1998.

Recomendable si gustas de Jordan y si no tamién!.

Summary: Relive the Greatest Moments of His Airness
Review: This 20th Anniversary edition of Ultimate Jordan includes previous releases Come Fly With Me, Michael Jordan's Playground, Air Time, Above and Beyond, and His Airness: and that's just Disc 1! Tons of extras are offered on this 3 double-sided DVD collection including Jordan's greatest dunks, moves, clutch shots, and assists, a look at MJ's shoe promotions, slam dunk contest highlights, Jordan off the court, an interactive career timeline, and more. The big bonuses here are 5 complete games: (1) 1986 1st round, Game 2 playoffs versus the Boston Celtics during which Jordan scored 63 points, (2) 1990 game versus the Cleveland Cavaliers where Jordan topped his previous career high total with 69 points, (3) 1993 Finals Game 4 where Jordan dropped 55 on the Charles Barkley-led Phoenix Suns, (4) 1997 Finals Game 5 against the Utah Jazz during which Jordan suffered from the flu and still kicked [...], and (5) the 1998 Finals Game 6 versus the Jazz that was MJ's last game as a Bull. These aren't just highlights, they are the games in their entirety. The set is handsomely packaged with a booklet that includes motivational photos and quotes that would make for excellent poster material. For the astoundingly low price, this is an awesome bargain for the MJ fan.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent, but don't bother watching "His Airness"
Review: This collection is as inspiring as it was when I first watched 'Come Fly With Me' about ten years ago.

The soundtrack, the footage, the insight into Michael's thoughts, the breathtaking shots its all here.

What I hadn't seen was the two more recent documentaries, 'Above and Beyond' and 'His Airness'. All I can say is don't expect much from the latter. Its full of about 3/4s rehashed material, old interviews from 'Airtime' and before, and you won't see a many bits of footage that you haven't seen before. It needlessly covers everything that all the previous videos have covered, and provides little insight into the later comeback seasons that made MJ an even greater legend than he already was.

MJ's first 3 videos were the most exciting sports films I've ever seen, 'His Airness' and to a lesser extent 'Above and Beyond' in my mind are nothing more than rehashes of old material with a different voiceover.

Worth getting, but I just was very dissappointed with the last 2 videos.
