5.0 out of 5 stars The Greatest Football Video Ever Made, June 11, 2001

By	Michael Ray (Macon, GA USA) - See all my reviews

I can't say enough about this tape. I first saw it when I was in High School. It's not only filled with the NFL's greatest "Hits"; but some of the most amazing catches, runs, and passes you'll ever see. It's peppered with just enough smart aleck comments from the old players to be funny. Thank god for this tape. I guarantee that if by the end of this tape if you don't want to just run out in your front yard and hit someone, I will personally write you and e-mail apology. Bar none the best football video ever published.

5.0 out of 5 stars Corny set-up (with a talking computer), but it's fun anyway!, May 6, 2003

By A Customer

I got this 50-minute video in the summer of 1988 as a free gift with my Sports Illustrated subscription. The set-up is corny; two janitors at the NFL films studio are shown classic archival highlights by "Felix the Talking Computer", but as the reviewer below said, somehow it works.

There are some classic NFL moments on this tape that I've never seen on tape elsewhere, such as Jim Marshall's famous wrong-way run with a recovered fumble and Tom Dempsey's 63-yard field goal, plus some funny bloopers, miracle finishes, tributes to oldtime tough guys and clips of the greatest QBs, RBs and receivers of the past. All good stuff.

Yes it's dated, but it's still a fun video to watch, and I do so every August to get myself into the mood for another season. Recommended if you can find it for a decent price...

4.0 out of 5 stars Felix the talking computer?, January 24, 2002

By A Customer

This film is not all about big hits like the title says, but has some fantastic catches, tackles and sideline talk to make it a very good all-round NFL video. The video is presented by a talking NFL archive computer called Felix (Weird, I know but it just about works) which runs off all the coolest mommemts in football, right back to the days before players had facemasks. It has some amazing clips. My favorite part is probably the run down in the most amazing trick plays (including the ones that went wrong). It is probably the most complete 'NFL Films' video there is and would be the best if it was not for the fact the video is now quite dated.
