Very good -- for children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I have to echo what another reviewer has noted -- this is a book for children. BUT, many adults will find it a real pleasure, especially if you do not already know the subject. DK books are renowned for excellent design and this series of Eyewitness Books is very pleasing visually. The only reason I give the book 4 stars rather than 5 is the slightly-too-great nod at the end of the book to commercialism and marketing in contemporary film.
Excellent book for its intended audience

The other reviewer was clearly not aware that the DK Eyewitness guides are intended primarily for use by children. This guide is fully up to the standards of the rest of the series, with explanatory text surrounding beautiful photos.
