Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)On its own, the "I'm Glad/All I Have" DVD single is not a bad proposition: If you like these two songs and/or videos this is a fairly inexpensive way to enjoy them. However, if you are even remotely a J.LO fan I have to recommend "The Reel Me" DVD/CD combo--IT CONTAINS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF J.LO'S VIDEOS TO DATE (NOV 2003)!!! I made the mistake of buying the "I'm Glad..." single only to discover a few days later that "The Reel Me" was available for only a few dollars more. In addition with it you get Jennifer's own commentary for every video and a behind the scenes making of special. I strongly recommend it over this DVD single.
Having said that, Jennifer's homage choreography in "I'm Glad" to Jennifer Beals dancing in Flashdance is really epic and a great way to honor a movie (and of course the Fame TV show which it spun of) that had a very strong influence on many young dancers like Miss Lopez. If you don't own a copy of Flashdance, you may want to get a copy of that so you can see how well J.LO covers the significant dance routines from the movie on this video, it's awesome! The "All I Have" video is nothing special, it is the typical boy in his own world/girl in his own world breakup montage video: It's been done before. But it is nice to see and hear Jennifer working with an _established_ rapper like LL Cool J as opposed to the newer rappers she's been featuring like Ja Rule. LL's flow on this song is as smooth as ever and delivered in the powerful yet cool way only a veteran like him can. "I'm Glad/All I Have" on it's own merits I think is 3 stars, but since "The Reel Me" is also available, from a value standpoint this DVD single really deserves to be rated lower on the scale.
