Editorial Review:
The Rhythm Nation Compilation gathers all seven, wildly popular and somewhat influential music videos based on songs from Janet Jackson's hit 1989 album, Rhythm Nation 1814. With a minimum of self-congratulatory distractions, the anthology gets down to business, rolling out such memorable productions as Swordfish director Dominic Sena's "Miss You Much," shot in black and white and underscoring Jackson's image as an accessible, normal young woman with a lot of playful friends. "Rhythm Nation," also helmed by Sena, is still disarming with its vaguely martial look and feel, as well as Jackson's then-trademark, staccato-choppy choreography. Other highlights include the south-of-the-border exotica of "Escapade," the long version of director Julien Temple's glossy "Alright" (featuring Cab Calloway, Cyd Charisse, and the Nicholas Brothers), and the dreamy "Love Will Never Do (Without You)," shot by famed photographer Herb Ritts and introducing the more womanly, sexier Jackson we know today. --Tom Keogh
Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation Compilation Reviews:
A classic video album 
2008-08-31 - I have watched this album in the format of LD for a long time ago,
once I search in amazon recently, I found this album in DVD format,
I bought it & found this video is the same & with much more better
image & sound quality, I,m really enjoyed!

It's Alright!
2007-12-18 - It was a nice tnrow back to watch Janet Jackson in old form. The dancing in such videos as "Rhythm Nation", and "Alright" are a reminder of one of the great trademarks of the Jackson Family. It was a great time period, then before a lot of the Jackson's troubles set in. I could watch this entire DVD again and again.
IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DVD 
2006-03-20 - The picture for this film is not clear. So if you are looking for quality, it is not going to be found in this film.

Happy birthday Janet!
2005-05-16 - Although recent outings have proven highly subpar in recent years, I still never can get enough of the high quality of the 1989 through 1990 videos of the videos from her magnum opus Rhythm Nation 1814. Entitled "The Rhythm Nation Compilation", this is a brilliant and groundshattering collection of seven of the most popular videos of all time on one DVD!
It's about time this came out too. The video version I had had worn out from so much watching but the DVD not only is superior in sound qualit, it's also benifited from a visual clean-up job and the images are much better and sharper too to give it a much more modern feel.
Call me strange by saying this but I found Janet to be worlds sexier in the "Miss You Much" and "Black Cat" videos than in recent ones like "All For You" and even "If". MYM is without a doubt probably my all time favorite video by any woman artist to this very day and includes the legendary chair-routine that has been copied numerous times in the 16 years since it was filmed.
Older fans will dig this DVD and younger fans need to get this to see a much different (and sadly once a much more mature Janet than now) Janet than they are familiar with.
