Customer Reviews:

My wife is a die-hard Madonna fan and she loves this!.......2007-03-08

She asked me for all the Madonna videos, and I got her 3 and she loves them ALL!

Stupider than stupid...........2005-10-30

This is unbelievably bad.

I came across this at a huge record shop recently, and was intrigued by the interesting packaging and the header of "Music Box Biographical Collection".

Fool I am, I bought this and was never more let down by anything. This is SO bad....not only is the entire program not even shown full screen but 'inside' a cartoon, ultra-cheesy 'television set'; the annoying female narrator mixes up dates in Madonna's career; footage from the 90s is shown during discussion of her 80s career and visa-versa; everything is VERY low-quality; and at one point footage of a Madonna impersonator performing as Madonna is shown, and passed off as being Madonna herself! The quality and cheap effects look like they were done in a high school video production class in the early 90s. Seriously, they do.

Do NOT buy this! I would like to give this zero stars. One is being TOO generous.

Not our Madonna at all.......2005-08-03

When I bought this I thought it was going to be a music collection of all of Madonnas music videos - what I got instead was a truely terrible documentary on Madonna. I thought it would show concert footage, rare photographs and videos - except all you got was a really annoying woman narrating, terrible black and white photographs that you could barley see and a very jumbled up time span of Madonnas career. Do yourselves a favour and DO NOT BUY THIS. Wait for Our Lady Madonna to do a proper Documentary on her own.

Customer Reviews:

waste of time and money.......2007-06-15

i love christina, but this 'biography' was awful. the pictures were distorted, there was horrible music (not hers), and the 3 people that were talking throughout the entire thing, are nobody's. they have no connection what-so-ever w/ christina, they're just stating their opinions on her. it looked like a home-video to me. what a complete waste of time and money. i didn't want to give any stars either, but there isn't a 'minus stars' choice.

Please Save Your Money!.......2005-10-11

This is an unofficial dvd, its not represented by Christina or her management.

Theres no music by Christina! Why? This is not an official dvd, Christina's music is copyrighted so they cannot include any.

They show a video of her singing live...with no sound! Instead theres instrumental music.

Its not really a biograpghy, its mostly opinions of the couple of people they asked. It was horrible, they had no creative thoughts and repeated themsleves!

The pictures they used were terrible quality and seemed to be played around with and streached out! Even though it says on the dvd box there is rare photos, there are none.

I gave it 2 stars because they did show an interview with Chrisitna talking about her album Stripped. Other then that this documentry is rubbish.

delrio.......2005-09-12

Oh my God! I'm looking for anything less than 1 star...Anyone who has seen this DVD has got to be soooooo disappointed! I really love Christina (just ask my girlfriend) and to watch this DVD was tooooo much to bare! Five minutes into it and I screamed "I GOT RIPPED OFF"! "WARNING"..."DO NOT BUY THIS DVD"!!! The only thing positive about the ordeal was I didn't purchase it online @ "AMAZON.COM"! :) If I had used my account I would have been forwarned by all you great "AMAZON.COM MEMBERS"...I would have saved a few bucks and shed less tears! It was total torture!!!

A complete sham.......2005-08-31

Yes, I am way, way over thirteen and a big Christina Aguilera fan. I can't help myself.

I actually rate this item a minus 6 stars but that option was not available.

This DVD is a joke - a bad joke. Spend your money on ANYTHING else.

The WORSTof the WORST DVDs!!!!!!! .......2005-08-16

I am really a Christina fan but I have no choice on this one other than saying the truth. This is the WORST DVD I have ever bought in my life. I can't encourage anyone to buy this one. I don't really know what Christina was thinking to release this DVD. There is no way I can call this a music video but rather call it a "SLIDE DVD" coz what you should expect to see are just slides about her biography and no music at all. I regret having bought this DVD. I repeat, DON'T BUY THIS ONE!!! This is really discouraging. Anyway if you have nothing to do with your money then you can buy this one. Better buy the Stripped one not this one.

This is obviously an unauthorised film. A couple of English people with a handycam with nothing new to say.

This DVD Is So Bad....!.......2005-08-21

well i'm a huge fan of Britney, i was waiting like crazy for this DVD, when arrived i just opened it and play it on my DVD Player, then i was so disappointed... this DVD is just like "Innocent Beauty" (wich is a little expensive for the boring features) or "Britney's Scrapbook" (The Real name could be "Britney's Crap Book" LoL) ok, well this DVD is just interviews and horrible footage really the money DON'T WORTH IT, this is for REAL FANS and mostly COLLECTORS just another Britney Item for the Collection that's all, is not the big thing and really all the people on the DVD says the same damn things "...she grow up in Kentwood...Disney...'Baby One More Time'..." there is nothing new on it

I LOVE BRITNEY so i went against the bad reviews!
MAN WAS I WRONG it is sooooo bad!!
its the worst dvd in history!

ugh...how disappointing..........2005-07-20

I do have to say when i read the review of the person who posted before me, i was extremely skeptical, being how much i love britney . i didn't think anything about brit could be that bad and then i got this DVD and it really is terrible! you honestly could make a better home video. i guess this because it was an unauthorized attempt at a documentary. all they do is interview these 3 boring british people and have terrible, lame video footage. its obvious why britney spears would never produce a movie this crappy. better off buying another britney movie.

The Music Box Collection presents a story of George Harrison, one of the most successful music legends of all time.

Featuring rare and archive footage brought to you exclusively from numerous private collectors worldwise, here is a complete story of George Harrison.

Customer Reviews:

Mediocre DVD.......2005-12-10

This DVD is not worth having. I watched it once and that was it. It now is at the Goodwill store. I think George Harrison is a genius too. He is the Beatle that is usually not given enough credit. And we'd like to know more about him. This DVD however doesn't do a good job. For those that truly enjoy George Harrison your money will be much better spent on "A Concert for George" DVD and CD or the last album George Harrison put out "Brainwashed". These are brilliant! And you'll enjoy them again and again.

Sue Me, Sue You Blues.......2005-10-18

George Harrison was a nonpareil musician and his work will remain timeless and relevant. This particular dvd is very disappointing because it just repeats what other documentaries have stated. You won't find any fresh or new material here and I was very displeased with the voice overs. I also didn't like the background music and found it annoying and distracting.

One announcer said "transcendent" instead of "transcendental" and called Jeff Lynne "Line." There is no excuse for that. The woman plainly did not do her homework and this did not make for an effective dvd.

The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars instead of the one it deserves is because it is about George Harrison. Even so, it is a leap of generosity to give it even one star.

Instead of this dvd, treat yourself to "Concert For George." You will be treated to a plethora of talent as artists such as George's son Dhani, former bandmates Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Tom Petty and many others pay homage to the youngest Beatle. Harrison, truly a musical purist honored his music muse and did not compromise his style for anyone. His lyrics remain outstanding and distinct to this day and will remain so for time immemorial.

Don't waste your money.......2005-09-11

This is an exploitation film at its worst. Seventy percent of it is a news story from British TV about George's interest in movies. And the rest seems to be from public sources also.There is very little about other aspects of George's life. The production values are horrible: volume goes up and down; they show the same 10 second clip of George walking to a court hearing three times over, the main narrator ( who is shown in these horrible eyebrow to chin closeups) is not even identified until the rolling credits at the end. I was lucky. I bought it locally and was allowed to return it for a refund.

Atrocious!.......2005-08-22

This DVD is a total waste of money. The background music will drive you crazy -- and obscure the interviews -- and the woman doing voice-over sounds as if she failed remedial reading. She says "transcendent" for transcendental meditation, and believes that the musician Jeff Lynne is Jeff Line. This is just a money-grabbing exercise with a hodge-podge of old British TV footage, three-quarters of which doesn't show George at all. No wonder it says "unauthorized" on the cover. Olivia must be losing her mind over exploitational material like this! PS. The system makes me give it a star -- it isn't worthy of one!

Incongruous.......2005-07-15

There are a few interesting segments of this DVD. The material comes from British sources. So there is some footage I have not seen before. BUT, the producers have added a guitar based backing track that is irritating beyond belief.

BIGGEST CON SINCE MADONNA'S EXPOSURE TO THE 'ENTERTAINMENT' WORLD!!!.......2006-11-06

FANS - DO NOT BUY THIS - WE'VE BEEN HAD!

Guys when I tell you that some mean-spirited, evil person (Madonna, Cameron Diaz, Marshall 'used to' Matter; shoot, maybe even Chris 'I Adore Myself Above All Else' Martin) concocted this and released it as a genuine 'homage' - please believe me.

Were it not for the fact I couldn't save my review without it, I wouldn't have rated it with any stars at all because it quite frankly doesn't deserve the honour of a single one. Since I WAS forced however - the one I did give it is for Mariah's name and the professional looking sleeve - it has all the clarity the entire DVD does not!

It's pure nonsense with the WORST graphic clarity I have EVER seen since, and I'm talking pre-digital age, old-school wooden televisions - bad.

Basically, it's an inaccurate recounting of Mariah's 'so-called' life so far; told through the eyes of journalists who haven't actually done ANY research or fact-checking whatsoever - it's as if they never heard of the concept! Prime example being one particular 'journalist' who got the film AND title song after which Mariah was named so matter-of-factly, wrong. Another one gets her birth-date wrong entirely!

I hadn't seen this before I bought it (obviously), because if I had I would immediately have denounced it to anyone who would listen before I wasted money outbidding some other poor sap for it on a "rival site"! But PLEASE take my word for it - it's INACCURATE, it's of HORRENDOUS AV quality (the entire thing is shown on the 'screen' of some tiny Clip Art telly box in the centre of the screen, with NO sound filtering whatsoever), and quite clearly, it's a rip-off.

You'll only be conning yourself if you still buy it after this - I for one know I want my money back.

Don't buy!!!.......2005-12-19

This is the most boring Mariah video EVER made!!!!!!! I am the most loyal Mariah fan ever and i couldn't even watch the first 5 minutes of this crappy documentary! Even Mariah would be ashamed!!!!!

Don't waste your money.......2005-11-26

It looks like amatures put this together. The quality is very poor. I know it says An unauthorized documentary film on it but most of the time they are usually at least good. This one is very very very bad. I'm a big Mariah Carey fan and I couldn't watch more than a few mintues of this documentary.

Don't buy!.......2005-11-07

These people putting together these dvds are not with any of the signes mangagements or related to her in any way. They're trying to make money off of famous people they also made a dvd like this for Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

Theres NO music from Mariah!

Its not really even a documentry, its really boring!

The worst DVD I have ever watched.......2005-09-21

This DVD is a waste of time, I am glad I only rented it and didn't buy it. It has no performances of Mariah Carey. There is one interview done by a foreign interviewer who can barely speak English. The interview is in black and white and is placed inside an animated screen about 1/3 of your TV Screen. The rest is close up shots of some English people giving their opinions about Mariah's career. The little time they actually show Mariah is the same shot over and over, I don't think they had any permission to use actual photos or video of Mariah. Don't waste your time out of the whole DVD maybe 10 min, outside of the interview, do you actually see any image of Mariah Carey. If you like to look at a bunch of people telling you everything you already know about Mariah Carey then good luck, otherwise steer clear!

Customer Reviews:

awful, a disgrace.......2006-10-03

Having read "As it Began," the definitive history of the Awesome group Queen, this movie was scarce of facts and some facts were incorrect. And the main narrator sounded like he didn't even know what he was talking about it!!! Please do not watch this movie if you have any interest in
Queen! I am so upset I have it and will be throwing it in the garbage. There is so much better Queen to watch, watch Wembley, On Fire, and especially disc 2 of the Tribute to Freddie concert. The new dvd of the Queen interviews was also great (got it on Amazon.)
Thank You, If I could give it less than zero stars I would.
