Random I-Tunes Song of The Moment: The Last in Line by Dio

I almost feel unworthy to review this effect - being a Richard Sander's product and all - especially considering that I'm going to offer some criticism. It's not about the effect. It is about the product itself. This 'problem' I'm about to mention seems to be more and more common in the DVDs I've been getting lately. It is this: The lack of a 'Play All' or 'Continuous Play' feature. After each chapter, the DVD stops and goes back to the menu.

That is extremely frustrating to the viewer. Especially to the viewer with a broken remote control. Literally having to get up after every 5 minute segment to navigate the menu and push the play button, not to mention that not all DVD players have arrow keys on them. These days that stuff is found ONLY on the remote control and not on the DVD player.

Other than that, you might as well stop reading now and just go order this. The effect is as good as the demo shows and claims. It comes with the gimmick. It's easy to do. Super visual . . . yada yada yada. Come on people. It's Richard Sanders. If you still want more detail, fine.

Production Quality: Awesome, with one exception. There is a segment or two shot outside that has some minor audio and lighting problems. Otherwise, the audio, video and lighting, etc. is excellent.

When it comes to repeat performance like a strolling situation, the choices are either use the same revelation card all night, or have several gimmicks prepared and change 'em out a couple of times per night. Depending on the type of gig you're doing, it might just be worth it to give out the chain and card for a souvenir.

Honestly gang, I don't know what else to say. Other than keeping this effect to myself and out of the hands of other magicians, I cannot think of any reason why you shouldn't buy this.

Lost 1/2 point for menu issues.

Final Verdict:
4.5 Stars with a Stone Status of GEM!
