Description
A collection of reviews for the 1,000 most important, popular, and influential movies of all time. While critiques of beloved Hollywood milestones from Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, and Orson Welles are all included, this book is notably a resource for the modern cinema buff and student. Nowhere else can one find this curated collection of reviews with such special features as lists of best films by category and year, as well as unique recommendations and sidebars for the modern viewer--including what to watch and how: from DVD and Blu-Ray to streaming platforms. In an era when most students and fans of film simply rely on the Internet for information, this category killer will prove its worth as a relevant and indispensable gift and reference.

Great movie reference book
Gave this to our 19 year old some who is a total movie-buff. He loves it! Not really something you sit down and read like a typical book; more of an awesome reference book.

Essential for Cineasts
I teach an on-going Lifelong Learners course on the history of cinema, so this will be a huge help in looking for criticism of specific films. Excellent addition to available sources.
