Rating:  - If you like MTV vids and remix beats...
Basically you get a good selection of videos that you could have seen in from 1989 to 1998 or so on MTV or VH1. There's other goofy camera things to look at while you listen to the same songs. Then you can listen to the same songs over and over again with a different beat. It's 2 discs and each disc runs normally about 30 minutes a piece. I guess it's worth the money if that's what you want but it's kind of boring after watching it once. I think the original beats with the original videos are the most entertaining. When I bought it I thought it would be longer or just better because of all the hyped up talk on here about it.
Rating:  - Almost perfect
Great sound and video quality, amost every all yoy need for the perfect collection of beastie video, my only "down" was the exclution of geanial videos like jimmy james, time for living, root down (live in tibetean freedom concert", so wacha want (assassings mix).
I expect a re-edition with the new videos and "all" of the videos.
Rating:  - Where are the Licensed To Ill Songs?
There is absolutely no reason for leaving "Fight For Your Right", "No Sleep Till Brooklyn", "Brass Monkey" or other BB hits off this. What's next? A Prince anthology with nothing off "Purple Rain"? A Madonna boxset that leaves out "Like A Virgin"? Paul McCartney renouncing "Yesterday"?
Criterion does movie releases so well (OK they had to re-release "Charade" because the first version wasn't anamorphic) that one has to wonder what the heck happened here. It's insane to think someone actually approved the final version of this product - who cares about 45 different versions of "Shadrach" if the LTI songs are MIA? Get Solid Gold Hits instead - that CD/DVD set has the stuff that made the Beasties famous.
Rating: - This is the best music DVD I've ever seen. Tons of fun.
The Beastie Boys are true superstars and this DVD proves how on top they really are. This anthology offers hours of play with multiple, exclusive audio tracks offered by a wide variety of different DJ's. It also has cool multiple angles and alternate video themes on the most popular tracks. Some stand-out mixes are the 'Webb 1' and 'Prisoners of Technology' remix of 'Intergalactic' and the 'Shawn J. Period' remix of 'Body Movin'. The 'Count Bass D' remix of 'Hey Ladies' is so funny and every mix of 'Sure Shot' is great. Be sure to watch and hear the remixes of 'Looking Down the Barrell of a Gun'. And; of course, there is 'Something's Got To Give', which is especially intense and thought provoking these days. I could go on forever about this incredible anthology; as many reviewers have, but I'll just be blunt. This is a must have for any ligit hip-hop fan. If you haven't seen and heard this yet you're missing out. Well worth the money to buy your own copy, but you can rent it online too. "So won't you listen!"
Rating: - Worth the money
