Movie Reviews of Chris Isaak: The Best of Chris Isaak
Movie Review: Missed Opportunity
Summary: 3 Stars
Chris Isaak is a natural actor in front of the cameras making him effective for videos even though personally I run hot and cold when it comes to promos. There is a wide variety showing his band, exotic women, cars and the beach. It's not for everyday viewing since some these show a man in pain over relationships and death. Even though Chris is a good looking guy I don't know if women can watch some of these videos on a regular basis. Movies are one thing, music is another. Try watching "Baby Did A Bad Bad Thing" a few times where Isaak goes nuts in front of the television watching a lady virtually strip. I do like the song selection which I think is better than the CD version. The film transfer from the 1980's-90's is also picture perfect. My biggest issue is no 5.1 channel surround sound. That's inexcusable for a 2006 release on a major label. There is also no bonus material. Why no well known live songs from either "Heart Shaped World" or "Forever Blue" to compliment the videos? "Wicked Game" for example goes up a notch in concert when it's extended. Instead they include a European version of the video to finish the collection which isn't that different from the original. If you like Chris and dark haired attractive models you'll still problably want this DVD, but it could have been better.Movie Review: Doesn't really add anything
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this DVD hoping for a sound quality superior to the original CD's. If you think about buying the DVD for that same reason: don't. The new songs aren't all that great either. It seems to me that Chris Isaak should either take a radical step or go back to the sparce production of his older music, because his latest work, including the new songs on this album, are overproduced and less transparent than his older work.Movie Review: chris isaak

After opening the Chris Isaak CD, it wouldn't play in the car. After a minute, it would eject by itself. Other CDs I own were fine in the CD player. The Chris Isaak CD does play ok on the home CD player. Could you suggest reasons or a solution for this problem? I've never incurred it before.
Thanks.
