This dvd set is for the seasoned mentalist.The trailor was slightly misleading. Spellman doesn't tip
off any of the really good stuff such as the self lighting cigarette. Each disc has 1 or 2 5 star
tricks that are just performance only wich really dissapointed me. If you're not going to give a
tutorial on something don't bother putting it in the dvd.
You will still have to take a trip to
your local magic shop after viewing this. It helps to already own a Svengali deck and a Thread real.
It will also benefit you to have already viewed a few of "Banachek's" dvds. Spellman is So far ahead
a newcomer may get left behind
Don't get me wrong its not all bad. The quality of the footage is
top notch. The techniques shown will indeed get your creative juices flowing and help you come up
with your own tricks.
I wouldn't discourage anyone from purchasing this dvd set by any means,
However in retrospect I think I should have shelled out the extra few bucks and got the "13 steps" 8
disk set instead.
Good but not Great. C+
