Editorial Review:
Once upon a time, a boy named Michael Jordan lived in Wilmington, North Carolina. Young Michael dreamt of becoming a professional basketball player. He began by participating in drop-in games with his brother, although at first he could not beat the older, heavier, more experienced sibling. As time went on, though, something grew inside of this child, a will and determination to beat anyone and anything that stood in the way of his success on the court. Playing basketball for his high school team, Jordan won a scholarship to the University of North Carolina. It was there that he first gave the world a glimpse of his greatness.
In a fitting tribute to this legendary player, His Airness examines the life of Michael Jordan, from his boyhood exploits to his final year in the NBA. This absorbing retrospective shows what made this man so remarkable: his constant quest for improvement. Even after his first retirement, in 1993, he returned to the court reborn, galvanized by a desire to win and to be on top of the game once again. He was a great ambassador and icon, as a number of basketball greats, from Magic Johnson to Isiah Thomas, testify to in interviews. Dignified, classy, determined, awesome, driven--there are not enough superlatives to describe what Jordan meant to the game of basketball and to sports in general. Legendary player Bill Russell summed it up best when he claims that the reason Jordan sustained his level of excellence was because "he was determined to be Michael Jordan every night." --Jeremy Storey

Just more highlights from his career up to his first retirement and his comeback. Nothing that any fan doesn't know about. still fun to watch Jordan dominate tho! ;-)
Rating:  - Summed Up, Who MJ really is
I watched this movie during my first year of doing graduate study. It really moved me. Not only it tells us the story of how Michael achieve his greatness, but also how we can come back to achieve even more great accomplishments.
Combined with tremendous illustrative music, this video should put some buterflies into your stomach. Everybody would love to watch this movie. Even for a non basketball fan, I think this movie would still be a remarkable movie to watch.
Rating: - AMAZING!
Being the MJ fan that I am, I have seen quiet a lot of movies about Jordan, and really I must say that this is one of the best, it has all those moves that just make MJ the great player that he is, I mean the way he moves with the ball, its just amazing, and unlike some other movies, this one doesnt waste long time on people talking, but shows what MJ is all about BASKETBALL.
Rating: - It is the most Outstanding and unforgettable sports video
This video features a complete summary that documents Air Jordan's remarkable NBA career which I think nobody will ever achieve. It is just as great as Michael jordan's career. But the video is inclued in 'Ultimate Jordan' on DVD.
Rating:  - Good enough.
This video is brilliant for getting a general picture of the the career of the legend that is Michael Jordan. However if you are a MJ groupy like me and you've seen all of his previous vids then there isn't much in this that hasn't been seen before. Still a great video and a must buy for die hard MJ fans.
