mentalism

A radical and new thinker in the world of close-up magic and mentalism. Derren performs forty-five minutes of hardcore mind-reading and close-up hypnosis. Volunteers are slammed into trance-states, achieving bizarre mental connections with each other in some mind blowing routines that are now earning Derren a dynamic reputation. The following effects are performed:

LIFT
A spectator's arm is immobilized. Then controlled remotely, by the will of another volunteer.

PLEROPHORIA
A deck of cards is thoroughly shuffled by a spectator yet Derren, while facing away, names each card in order.

SMOKE
An incredible routine, where a card that has been merely thought of by a spectator, is first named by Derren then disappears from an untouched deck only to impossibly appear...well, wait and see.

COIN READING AND BENDING
The date and denomination of a volunteer's coin, unseen and untouched by Derren, is identified. Then slowly bent at the will of another volunteer.

REMINISCENCE
A hypnotized spectator merely thinks of a memory, a number and a picture. All are then perfectly described in immense detail by both Derren and audience members. This mind-blowing routine is Derren at his very best.

The performance is followed by an explanation of Plerophoria and a demonstration of mentally forcing an imaginary card, plus some extremely valuable discussions on presentation and Derren's philosophy of 'Invisible Compromise'. An immensely useful video for both the budding and established mentalist.

I was extremely excited to buy this download, but was extremely disappointed upon reviewing it. The download was about 50 minutes of Derren's tricks, which were great, but he only taught one of them and the one that he taught was, in my opinion, terrible. Don't get me wrong, Derren Brown is an outstanding mentalist, but for somebody who is trying to learn mentalism tricks, this is highly not recommended. Looking back, I could've bought much better lectures on Penguin magic with this $45.

I was extremely disappointed, when I buy magic from Penguin I want to learn something not watch a magic show, I want to pick up information I can use, while Derren is a very good magician/mentalist, I spent $45.00 to watch a show, I imagine I could buy a ticket to the live show for that much.
This is a very expensive lesson and I will now think twice before buying any downloadable lesson as Jay Noblezadas lecture sucked too. If I could I would ask for a refund for both items.
I hope this helps whom ever is thinking about buying either of those items.

So being that this lecture is tough to find it was already high on my radar to buy. Now... Is it worth $45? It depends. If your looking for an awesome performance and a bit of good theory from a legend, then this is totally for you. If your wanting to learn these effects DON'T GET THIS. Now I don't give this three stars because of that reason. I give it 3 stars because I believe that it's extremely overpriced.

Some information and insight Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 11th, 2013
This was filmed before Derren became the superstar he is today. He demonstrates some interesting effects and explains a couple, but the biggest insight gleaned here would be from his thinking behind forcing (or suggesting, to be more precise) a card to the spectator through specific phrases and gestures. He's not going to give you a behind-the-scenes look into how he does his routines today, but this is a good grounding on where he started it all. It's very low-budget, but it's probably the best lecture you'll ever get from him at this time.

Looking for trick explanations? Maybe not so much. Looking for performance tips and master insight? 100%. Everyone knows how to bend a coin or how to gain information but his lecture teaches you how to go from from boyball to Pro leagues just like all of his other work.

With my own bias (Derren brown fan) I enjoyed this dvd the effect was very clever and the DVD needs to be watched a few times to get the full apreciation from it
