Shot on location in Mexico and Malaysia, this documentary follows the photo shoots that produced the images for the year 2000 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Hosted by comedian and actor Damon Wayans and produced much like a Playboy Playmate video, the video consists of sequences that find models like Kristy Hinze, Heidi Klum and Kylie Bax posing and then talking with Wayans about life on the set. Several of the magazine photographers are also interviewed. The footage featured during Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Video: 2000 is often times more explicit than the images in the magazine and may not be suitable for young viewers. Sports Illustrated has been filming the many models that have graced its pages since the early 1990's and also has produced an interesting retrospective, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Video: 25th Anniversary. ~ Ed Atkinson, All Movie Guide

Sports Illustrated sent a team of their best photographers to some of the most scenic beaches along the Pacific Ocean to photograph supermodels Heidi Klum, Estella Warren, Daniela Pestova, and Christy Hinze for the 2000 edition of the magazine's eagerly anticipated annual Swimsuit Issue. Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit 2000 is a video documentary (hosted by Damon Wayans) that offers a look at the hard work that goes into producing the annual shoot, as well as the beautiful results. The DVD is a no frills affair, transferred at full frame with the audio presented in Dolby Digital Stereo; there are no subtitles, closed captions, or bonus features, but then again, most folks buying this disc probably weren't looking for a commentary track explaining the director's mise-en-scéne anyway. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
