course)--all their ground-breaking videos together in one place. More than radio, MTV made mega-stars out of the photogenic group, and few took better advantage of the medium, particularly in the 1980s. Just as their music combined the sophisticated pop of Roxy Music with the electro-funk of Chic, each video is as immaculately styled and conceived as the band itself.Like 1998'sGreatestCD collection, this two-DVD set features all their big hits, including uncensored versions of "Girls on Film" and "Come Undone". Directors include Godley and Creme, Julien Temple, andVoguephotographer Ellen Von Unwerth and the albums covered range from 1981's self-titled debut to 1997'sMedazzaland. All told: more models, more hair spray and more mascara than a Paris fashion show--but it's got a better beat (and you can dance to it).--Kathleen C Fennessy

Advantages: Great DVD - Must own Disadvantages: Sound out with video :((
THE BEST DURAN DURAN DVD EVER!!! This dvd has it all! If your a fan of any 80's music you must own this DVD! but there are some low pionts: The sound goes out with the video in 5.1 and DTS. The only good Special Feature is the Documentary what is about 60 mins long.
The Documentary is good tells you ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW from when they was kids to now :)
But if you like Rio, Hungry Like The Wolf, The Wild Boys, Girls on Film, Is There Something ...

Advantages: Marvelous videos Disadvantages: Not any interviews with the band apart from DVD ROM
...I thought it was time I reviewed DuranDurans greatest on DVD.
This is a two disk set and also a region 0 that means it can play on any DVD player.
The packaging on this is very nice and quite simple, white box and when you open it up bars of colour on the inlay covers. The disks have no fancy pictures on but are nice silver disks with Greatest I or II on them.
As you put either of the disks on the menu has GREATEST and you can navigate through the letters on each disk that bring you into the menu of songs or features for that letter on each disks. Very clever.
All of the songs are the original music videos unless I state otherwise.
I shall take you through what is on it :
Disk 1
The letter R contains:
Planet Earth. This is one of their first videos on one of the earliest videos that was released and shown on top...

Advantages: Kristen Johnston is excellent in her role albeit a minor part. Disadvantages: The film just isn't funny, it wasted 100 minutes of my life.
...a romantic comedy it is, but nothing about 'Music and Lyrics' made me want to watch on in any way whatsoever and the only way I managed to continue watching this film was through sheer willpower and determination. It's one of those films where you see the ending coming from a mile-off, and whilst this isn't always a bad thing and sometimes it does in fact work, I like to use my brain a little when watching films and 'Music and Lyrics' requires no brainpower whatsoever. On the back of the DVD box is a quote from 'NOW' which reads 'Well Wham bam thank you DuranDuran, here's a big chucklefest' and if there's anything more detestable than the film itself then it has to be this moronic piece of horrible journalism. Whoever wrote that horrible sentence deserves a slap, as does 'Music and Lyrics' writer and director Marc Lawrence for unleashing...
