Gary E. Robbins said A great review book!. I loved this book and recommend it highly. My only caveat is to have some time set aside to read through it.

If you love movies, and if you love your DVD machine, this book is a match made in heaven. Buy it. Buy it now.. great source of info Give you ideas of things to watch that you may not have considered.
