VHS Movie Reviews of Michael Jordan - Come Fly With Me
Movie Review: Great Classic NBA Video!
Summary: 5 Stars
BOTTOM LINE:
This was one of the biggest selling sports videos of its time (1989), and for good reason; it captured all of the unbelievable moments, moves, highlights and dunks of a Young Jordan - from his days in UNC, to his historic rookie year in the NBA to the days when he was a scoring machine!
Witness MJ start the whole marketing mega-trend that (sadly) helped make all of these new young athletes the overpaid crybabies that they are today. lol
Movie Review: These are visions of what might have been
Summary: 5 Stars
And if you're doin' drugs, stop it. Come Fly With Me captures the legend of Micheal Jordan in an exciting, and honest video. Fans of Jordan are priveledged to old commercials, and excellent NBA footage that demonstrates exactly why Jordan's star shines so bright. Narrated by Jay Thomas - who does a surprisingly nice job - the video illuminates Jordan's passion for the game as well as the pride in his family that drives him to succeed. It must be nice to be a natural at something...at anything; however, to watch Jordan take on the world's best and make their skills seem childlike is an amazing feat. The video actually offers to viewers a incredible insight into life and hard work. Come Fly With Me is able to be enjoyed, and understood by fans of any age.
Mr. Jordan - your video is inspirational!!! That's the ticket!
Movie Review: Best basketball video ever!
Summary: 4 Stars
I used to wear this video OUT at Blockbuster when I was younger, great old school basketball video. COME FLY WITH MICHAEL. Back when the NBA was actually fun to watch.Movie Review: Jordan, the early years
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have any doubt who the greatest basketball player of all time is, watch this video. This film was made nearly 15 years ago and it still wows me. I'm from Chicago so it is a Windy City bias. But it is true he is the best. Before the championships and him beating the Bad Boys, Jordan dazzled fans all over the nation with his 360 dunks, sick layups, incredible game winning shots and his winning attitude is what made up of Jordan before he won his six titles. This video also details his early life with his family, his daily battles on his families Basketball court with his older brother Larry. Him getting cut from his varsity high school team and his eventuall stardom at Laney high school. His successful run at North Carolina, with star teamates, James Worthy and Sam Perkins. Him winning the 1982 NCAA title against Patrick Ewing's Georgetown. Also relives his 1984 Olympic gold medal. Him being drafted third by the Bulls. Being passed over by the Portland TrailBlazers for.... Sam Bowie!!! The video also goes over Micheal's dramtic rise into stardom in 1984-85 where he won Rookie Of The Year. He then breaks his foot in early 1986 and he came all the way back, despite the Bulls front office telling him not to do it.He came back with fire, when in the 1986 playoffs, he scored 63 points against a team with four hall of famers, Bill Walton, Robert Parish, Kevin McHale, and of course, Larry Bird. This video is a gem to own, for any basketball fans, and MJ fans. Also, you can find this video on the Ultimate Jordan DVD collection, which I also own. You will love it.Movie Review: A MUST HAVE FOR JORDAN FANS
Summary: 5 Stars
One Word: Bestsportsvideoever. Awesome highlights from his early years. The dialogue from this video and the calls of the announcers will stick in your head. If you play basketball, Every time you touch a basketball you will try to immitate highlights from this video. If you are a Michael Jordan fan, you absolutely MUST have this video. If you aren't a Michael Jordan fan, you still should have it. Best sports video I have ever seen. If you are a Michael Jordan fan, you will not be able to take this tape out of your VCR.
Summary of Michael Jordan - Come Fly With Me
It's showtime! Come Fly with Me packs in 50 minutes of breathtaking basketball highlights of the man considered the greatest basketball player of all time: Michael Jordan. Produced in 1989, before Jordan's first championship with the Chicago Bulls, Come Fly covers Michael's middle-class childhood in North Carolina, his rise in the NCAA ranks with the University of North Carolina, and the first few professional seasons with the Bulls. But if it's athletic wonders you seek as opposed to lots of factual details, you'll be well satisfied. This video clearly was designed to celebrate, not necessarily sketch out, the man and his history.Early footage of Michael will delight longtime Bulls fans. Included are interviews with family members, school mentors (we meet the coach who made the now-famous cut of Michael from his high-school junior varsity team), and 1980s Bulls coach Doug Collins (complete with frizzy 'fro), and plenty of slam dunks, athletic ballet, and "Wanna Be Like Mike" charisma. Missing is mention of fellow University of North Carolina teammates James Worthy and Sam Perkins, as well as a decent hip-hop soundtrack (the music is early sports documentary cheezola), but these are small flaws compared to the man's jaw-dropping aerobics. Footage of the slam-dunk contest alone--where Jordan captured his own goal of taking off at the free-throw line and dunking at the hoop (complete with legs bent back in Air flight)--will leave viewers grinning and shaking their heads. His energy is endless, his creativity self-renewing, and his athleticism graceful and magical. This video is a fun peek into the youthful Michael now so far behind us. --Karen Karleski
