 A fantastic buy for NFL fansApr 10, 2008
By Joshua P. Putnam

If you've never seen any of the America's Game episodes then you are missing out. This is by far a very different NFL films product - much less of the frustrating super slow motion footage and more about the actual games themselves.
This particular product is a must-have for any 49ers fan. The 1981 DVD in particular is outstanding, but all 5 DVDs are of very high quality. One of the unique aspects of this set of DVDs is how they each compliment each other, and basically recap the franchise between the years 1979-1994. For example, the 1984 DVD picks up where the 1981 DVD left off, and talks about how the 49ers didn't make the playoffs in 1982 and lost in the NFC Championship game in '83.
The DVD also faithfully re-caps the Quarterback controversy of 1988, which brings me to the only bad thing I can say about this collection; the absence of Joe Montana. NFL films uses enough stock footage of previous Montana interviews to keep fans satisfied, but much like the fantastic Dennis Georgatos book Game Of My Life, Montana's absence is the only noticeable flaw, but a glaring one at that.
Is this enough to recommend against purchase? Of course not!! Even die-hard 49er (and NFL) fans will be reminded of some awesome highs and a few of the lows which they may have forgotten about.
My final example illustrates the in-depth nature of the DVDs: during the 1984 season San Fransisco went 18-1. Their one loss during the season? Week 7 against the Steelers. At the end of the game Pittsburgh was driving for the win, but San Fransisco was able to stop them on downs at the goaline, but on the 4th down play, Ronnie Lott was called for a penalty which, although later shown to be a bad call, gave Pittsburgh a fresh set of downs and helped them win the game. The DVD includes all of this footage, from the actual broadcast, but it doesn't unnecessarily dwell on mundane details. My point is that each DVD is packed with information, but they keep up a good pace to keep the audience entertained.

The 49'ers.May 23, 2010
By Robert Yasuhira
The first disc documenting the first super bowl team is worth the
entire set. The commentators are Ronnie Lott, Randy Cross, and
Dwight Clark. They give a review of the entire season as
to how the team developed during the season to the final goal
of winning the championship.

Great DVD SetNov 19, 2007
By David Sulli
If your a San Francisco 49er fan then you will love this dvd set! It takes you back to those great years with interviews from some of the players of those Super Bowl teams and video highlights of the season all the way into the Super Bowl. There are also never before seen videos of the team and players off of the football field!
Awesome compilationMar 12, 2012
By Tina Marie
Having lived with a life-long Niner fan I wasn't sure if this would be enough for him, but he is so pleased that I am sure I have won 'wife of the year'. He loves the whole collection of games on this video and the clips; excellent interviews and old school footage. He is a happy camper, and I thank you all for your previous reviews for helping me decide to purchase this. Winning!!!
