Jennifer Lopez has a few things to say in this sexy anthology about what it takes to connect people to her songs; fortunately, she says them concisely in an interview that wraps around this 16-clip collection of sweet ballads, sweaty dance music, and jagged hip-hop. "If You Had My Love" makes a closed-circuit, home-security system the vehicle for catching J-Lo in an amorous mood--a typically trite and ridiculous MTV-friendly concept (but hot just the same), while "No Me Ames" finds Lopez and Marc Anthony playing an embattled couple in a dramatization of their powerful duet. Other highlights include "Feelin' So Good," in which the star plays a hairdresser who blows her paycheck on a night out with the girls; the "Ain't It Funny" remix, with its deep colors and sassy attitude; and "Jenny From the Block," co-starring now defunct Bennifer lovemate Ben Affleck. Presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 and PCM stereo, the DVD package includes a bonus CD with six songs. A strong optional purchase. Aud: P. (T. Keogh)
