5 out of 5 stars even better than expected   September 2, 2008
I had an older copy of this book and wanted to get the newest update. I was happy to discover that the publisher had added not just new reviews but also an average rating of the reviews for the most recent movies (for example if 7 out of 10 reviews were positive the movie received a review rating of 7, if only 2 out of ten were positive, it received a 2)


4 out of 5 stars Excellent single source   May 15, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

As always, this is an erudite and entertaining volume. It is remarkably complete, with even B (and C) movies getting a mention. It provides a clear and concise opinion of each film, dispensing with much of the tortured, reverential twaddle which seems to seep into other such books. Depending on your mood, you'll find the Britishness of its style either quaintly endearing or vaguely annoying.
