Advantages: Stacks upon stacks of extra features. Disadvantages: Unecessary inclusion of 4:3 ratio version.
Now, Men inBlack was already a superb film. What has always been good about it is it's perfect suitability to just plonk yourself down and watch it on the spur of the moment.
With the incredible amount of extra features included on this DVD you will be plonking yourself down for a considerable time to come.
All of the features are perfectly matched to the style of the film. My particular favourites are the out-takes (an excellent one involving the out of control ball seen - without the ball) and the scene editing workshop. At least you can have a go at putting a film together.
My only criticism is that the whole DVD fills you with a feeling of greed and you can't help but want more. ...
Advantages: Some good remixes and the price Disadvantages: Not many, some fillers but i suppose you get that with every album
, mainly for its heavy base line
Thats Crazy - Black Rob, Missy Elliott, Snoop Dogg & G Dep. The production doesnt interest you on this one and its a shame because you turn off before Missy and Snoop get involved
Woke Up In The Morning - Carl Thomas & Notorious BIG. Not a bad track but its missing something, i dont know what it is. It just plods along really, not really popular with Bad Boy fans
You Gets No Love - G Dep & Faith Evans. I was waiting to see a Faith Evans track and its the last one, not too much different from her album version just a rap added really but it didnt need much tampering so a good one to finish on
Probably best for fans of Diddy & the whole bad boy family thing but for the price it is, its definately worth it ...
Advantages: Good price, good film, funny and excellent special features Disadvantages: ...
strongly recommend this film to people of all ages. Though this movie is now aging it won't let you down. Also watch out for the next movie Men inBlack II now also available. You can purchase this great DVD for only £3.97 from amazon, a bargain. Happy Watching!
