The greatest movie ever!

It is a performances centric movie

A lot of fun.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

Now He Is Not My Favorite Spoof Artist...My Favorite Is A Bit Of A Change...Kevin Bloody Wilson (Ad In Review: Kev For Prez). I Enjoy Most Of The Songs On This DVD The Only One's That I Hate Are "Its All About The Pentiums", "Bedrock Anthem", "Headline News", "I Lost On Jeopardy", "This Is The Life" & "Living With A Hernia" Every Other Song I Like So Thats 6/24 Songs That Are Bad. When I First Saw "Smells Like Teen Spirit"...You'll Never Believe This...But...I Was A Die-Hard Fan Of Nirvana...I Was & Am Not The Kind Of Guy That Reacts To A Spoof Or A Remake Of A Song Or Movie That Had A Dead Guy In It Like "Oh Hey You Insulted Him" But That Can Be Understandable If Its A Bad Spoof Or Remake But This Was Not A Bad Spoof In Fact Besides Those 6 None Of Them Are Bad Spoofs. All In All A Great Video DVD.Best Song: Jerry SpringerBest Music Video: Smells Like Nirvana(How Similar It Is To The Original Is Uncanny)

One of the great post-modern musical comedians is Alfred Yankovic. Over the course of the last thirty years he has gone from a scrawny little geek with an accordion and glasses, to a Grammy winning international star. This collection is actually something that I'd recommend you purchase if you see it at your local S-Mart, and you probably will. Weird Al knows popular music inside an out. He can literally fill the shoes and socks of any artist you name. His impersonations of Micheal Jackson, James Brown, Madonna, Kurt Cobain and several others are actually quite brilliant, and if you thought the songs were great as parodies, wait till you see them as music videos, full of visual gags, bathroom humour, and hilarious absurdities. It is something that kids (of a certain age) and Adults can enjoy alike. In fact, were it not for some occasionally mature humour, I would say this is a family watch. It is pretty darn close. Bonus features include snips from the Weird Al show, and his first television appearance with Tom Snyder.

Mr. Alfred Matthew Yankovic collects all of his 24 videos on this DVD, which is highly recommendable for anybody with a good sense of humor. At the height of his success (middle of the 80's to early 90's), Weird Al just could do nothing wrong. Most of the spoofs of hit songs/videos here are funny, creative and untouchable, but as time went by Al seemed to get a bit tired. He made less and less videos throughout the 90's and kind of lost track with what people really listen to. His parodies of "American Pie" ("The Saga Begins"), "It's All About The Benjamins" ("It's All About The Pentiums") and "Amish Paradise" ("Gangsta's Paradise") are only mildly entertaining and don't come close to Weird Al's earlier classics. The true, timeless gems here are "Like A Surgeon", "Eat It", "Fat", "Smells Like Nirvana", "You Don't Love Me Anymore", "Bedrock Anthem" and "Headline News". Those videos spoof the originals by Madonna, Michael Jackson, Nirvana, Extreme, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Crash Test Dummies with so much love and silliness, it's a delight. "Dare To Be Stupid" a charming homage to the cult group DEVO is another highlight on this DVD. But although Weird Al's glory days seem pretty much over, his lesser efforts such as "Bob" or "Living With A Hernia" are still pretty amusing and will get a chuckle or two out of you. If you like the wacky humor of movies like "The Naked Gun" (where Weird Al also makes an appearance) and/or kept track with the most popular songs of the last 20 years, you're going to have a hell of a good time with this collection.

This dvd is a must for any Weird Al fan! All of his video's from "Ricky" to "It's All About the Pentiums", and even a new video for "Bob". The Picture and Sound are excellent! Special features include a performance of "Another One Rides the Bus" on "The Tomorrow Show", and clips from "The Weird Al Show". 10/10
