Disc One

Above and Beyond (53:40)
The set starts off with Above and Beyond, a documentary that, though highlight clips and interviews, covers Jordan's career between 1993 and 1995, arguably the most tumultuous years of his life. Coming off three straight wins at the NBA finals, Jordan unexpectedly announced his retirement in October of '93, a decision informed by his weariness of celebrity and the recent death of his father, who was murdered by two teenagers earlier in the year. Even more surprising, Jordan then blew everyone's minds by embarking on a brief career in minor league baseball. Of course, this was all just a diversion. In March of '95, Jordan sent out his famed two-word comeback notice: "I'm back." More than just a collection of clips, the film explores the psychological side of the sport, where motivation is just as important as raw talent.

His Airness (54:35)
Produced in 1999, after Jordan's second梑ut not final梤etirement from pro ball, His Airness is a retrospective and tribute that takes us from his childhood shooting hoops with his brother through to his claim that he was "99.9% certain" he would never play another NBA game. In between, we're rushed through the highs and rare lows of his long梑ut not quite over梒areer. The narrator here is a bit too bland and corporate-sounding, but this is a solid overview.

Airtime (48:37)
More focused in scope and less dependent on repetitive clips of Jordan dunking, Air Time, which was made in '93, looks back on the 1991- 1992 championship seasons, the journey of the "Dream Team" to the Barcelona Olympics, and several of the personal and professional controversies surrounding Jordan, including accusations of gambling on golf, an unkind portrayal in the unauthorized biography The Jordan Rules, and Jordan's reaction to getting kicked out of his first game. In general, the focus here is more on the man himself rather than his on-the-court performance. Look out for a brief appearance by Michael Jackson!

Come Fly With Me (39:37)
"Hi, my name is Michael Jordan, I want you take a trip with me and discover a secret I've known for many years...that man was truly destined to fly." Well, at least one man. Here, we get the high-flying highlights of the early part of Jordan's career, from rare footage of his college days at North Carolina梩here are also interviews with former coaches and teammates梩o his meteoric rise to NBA superstardom. This is Jordan before his championships梑asketball potential on the verge of being fulfilled. It all culminates in a fast-paced montage of above-the-rim moments.

Michael Jordan's Playground (42:53)
Amongst all the usual dunk clips and interviews with admiring league-mates, Playground mixes in a kind of cheesy inspirational story about a young baller who gets cut from his high school basketball team, only to meet Michael Jordan out on a neighborhood court. Jordan, of course, proceeds to give the kid a lesson in perseverance. MJ proves he's no real actor梐lthough, admittedly, he improved somewhat with Space Jam梑ut if you can slog through the unnecessary attempt at a story, you'll be treated to some great board-slamming action. Stick around until the end for a nostalgia-for-the-early-1990s-inducing music video with Kid n' Play and Bow Legged Lou.

It's Gotta Be the Shoes (6:37)

Disc Four

1997 NBA Finals Game 5: Chicago vs. Utah (1:45:21)
Otherwise known as "The Flu Game." On the morning of Game 5, Jordan woke up with a stomach virus梠r possible food poisoning梐nd despite a sluggish first quarter, went on to lead the Bulls to victory, netting 38 points while on the brink of fainting. In a post-game interview, teammate Scotty Pippen said, "He's the greatest, and everyone saw why tonight."

1998 NBA Finals Game 6: Chicago vs. Utah (2:09:18)
After this game, the Bull's dynasty crumbled: Pippen and Rodman were traded, coach Phil Jackson left, and Jordan soon announced his second retirement. They went out on a hell of a high note, though, with Jordan chalking up 45 points and scoring a game-winning jump shot with five seconds left on the clock.
