Kelly Clarkson: Behind Hazel Eyes Reviews:
Hear Me Out
2008-01-07 - I haven't watched this thing in it's entirety yet, so as of now, I have no complaints. The segments I did watch looked very interesting. I love documentaries and learning about people I admire and this was a good buy! Kelly Clarkson has always been very intriguing to me and it's really nice to learn a little something about her!

Worth a rental, due to Kelly's charming personality.
2007-09-01 - Note: Only two of the Special Features: 'The Making of Breakaway' and 'Kelly's Camping Camera' are in full-screen; the rest of this Dvd is in widescreen format. The main feature is in widescreen and available in 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround or Dolby Digital 2.0 channel stereo. The total Dvd running time is about 55 minutes.


The Dixie Chicks may be ashamed that the President is from Texas, but I'm sure they're proud that Kelly Clarkson is a Texan. She is definitely one of the sweetest and smoothest talkers around. I think she needs her own talk show.

Even though the main feature (it's in widescreen) is only 40 minutes long and features NO music videos, I still found most of it to be both interesting and quite entertaining, simply because of the pure easy-going personality and charm of Kelly Clarkson. The segment in the studio, as she sings parts of "Because of You", is especially well-done. However, the 20 second live concert footage of her singing "Beautiful Disaster", looks awful! I also could have done without most of the tiresome camping footage, and the brief, but too often shown, black and white footage, that they used over and over again as segment dividers, which feature Kelly putting her hand up, while "Miss Independent" plays. They should have used a different scene each time, to at least add some variety. And although some of the stuff she does, is a bit dull, I'd still give this main feature a grade of B+, because Kelly is just too charming to ignore.


SPECIAL FEATURES:
Although Kelly's very cute and often amusing in the 90 second bloopers bonus (I'd give it a grade of B), especially when she accidentally burps, the rest of the special features pale in comparison. The five minute, 'The Making of Breakaway', has so little coverage of the video, it's basically a complete waste of space on this Dvd (I'd give it a grade of C minus, although that's probably too generous). The 8.5 minute, 'Kelly's Camping Camera', is often dull, and has two large white squares in the center of the screen, and a flashing red, REC, displayed on the screen the entire time, to remind you that you're watching video camera footage. Stylish perhaps, but I found it extra annoying! At least we get to see Kelly in her dark-framed glasses the whole time (something different at least), and more of her shy, but pretty friend Jessica, so I'll give it a mercy grade of C minus. However, this camping theme was previously handled much better in a MTV Newlyweds" episode with another Jessica...Jessica Simpson (although, even that episode got boring fast).


So, yes, I enjoyed the main feature and the very brief bloopers, but I still think this is only worth a rental, unless you can get a cheap copy for the same price. Y'all keep checking the bargain bins at Walmart etc., and you should come across one, sooner or later.

Not a music video, no audio tracks for music
2007-02-26 - The packaging on this DVD is false: don't expect music videos or audio tracks to play on your DVD player, CD player, or computer. It's a personal portrait. Scant musical footage. "Because of you" playing in the background while Ms. Clarkson and her friends hang out on a fishing pier and talk about things completely unrelated to the song. Etc.

not what it is advertised to be
2007-01-19 - NO videos and lots of boring fillers. I like Kelly's singing but who cares about her high school teachers? Unless you have a fatal attraction to Kelly I can't imagine anyone being interested in this DVD. I threw mine away because no one wants to buy it used-- there are a ton available and no one buying.

just wrong
2006-08-13 - From the back of the DVD case:
"This DVD includes six featured music tracks..."

You might expect 6 music videos on a DVD with that description, but in this case you'd be wrong. Evidently they justify this claim by the tiny little slices of the songs that play behind the home movie/documentary.

Really disappointing and deceptive. Such a shame that a seemingly genuine and talented singer would have her name on this.
