20th Century Masters - The Best of New Edition: The DVD Collection


Starring:New Edition, Bobby Brown
Studio: Geffen Records
Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
This cluster of five music videos provides a capsule history of New Edition, originally a 1980s R&B-bubblegum phenomenon created by producer-songwriter Maurice Starr, who later went on to create New Kids on the Block. A boyish Bobby Brown and fellow Boston teens Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Ronnie DeVoe, and Ralph Tresvant--some of whom went on to become major solo stars--can all be seen here in smartly crafted, early videos for such Starr-penned hits as "Cool It Now" and "Mr. Telephone Man." (The latter finds the boys pleading with two confused repairmen because they can't call their girls.) Remaining videos reflect changes in New Edition: Johnny Gill replaces Brown on "If It Isn't Love," which focuses on sweaty rehearsals, and "Can You Stand the Rain," perhaps NE's first manly ballad. The suave "I'm Still in Love with You," possibly set in Venice, was shot during a 1996 reunion of original members plus Gill. --Tom Keogh

1 out of 5 stars Hardly The Best of New Edition: The DVD Collection.......2007-05-25

You've got to be kidding me with this. Five count em five videos.. Granted all five are fantastic, but let's say you're a new comer to New Edition and this is what you got.. Wow what a disservice to the group. This DVD could of been great. You take 2 videos from there debut album 2 or 3 from the 2nd and so on.. Oh but wait, how about some videos of Bobby Brown, BBD, Ralph Tresvant, & Johnny Gill. New Edition is so much more than what this DVD has to offer. I have to say it's a shame that this thing is even out because it shows the lack of respect that this group deserves.. Just my 2cents...

2 out of 5 stars 5 VIDEOS? I thought this was supposed 2 b a collection!!!! .......2007-03-04

I give 5 stars to NEW EDITION and the videos themselves but come on! For a fan,the DVD is a HUGE disappointment. 5 five minute videos...are they serious? When a group with 12+ videos from their 7 album, 20 year career get a 25 minute DVD that's called a "collection" it's a joke! Not even Candy Girl(their FIRST video & hit)was important enough to make the cut? If the makers of the 20th Century Masters series on DVD are truly interested in honoring these artists, they should try to come a lot closer to a complete video history than this. For fans of a group as under-rated as New Edition, these videos plus the classic footage of the more rarely seen videos would make it a DVD to be cherished. This one is just a thrown together, incomplete version and does not even come close! It get's 2 stars: 1 star for the thought, 1 star for us to wish on for more!

2 out of 5 stars Not for the fact.......2006-02-15

That i hated it. Because obviously i'm a New Edition fan, but come on. There only five videos on this one. They are good and everything, but there should be in my eyes at least 9 or 10 more NE videos in this. To be considered really the best of New Edition.

So if someone is listening and knows what's up please fix this. Not a bad buy, but could be a LOT better.

1 out of 5 stars Don't Do It!!.......2006-02-11

I wouldn't purchase this due to the fact that they left out some of thier other great videos. Why leave out Count Me Out, the number 1 debut Candy Girl, NE Heartbreak, Popcorn Love, Is This The End, Crucial, My Secret (feat. Magic Johnson), Hit Me Off, She Gives Me A Bang, and You're Not My Kind of Girl??? Correction to one of the reviewers comments (A viewer), A Little Bit of Love (Is All it Takes) was never made into a video, but that does not excuse 20th century from leaving out the good videos mentioned. I'm sure glad I did'nt purchase this! Just Don't It!
