1.0 out of 5 stars Nearly a complete waste of time, December 4, 2010

This review is from: Bond Cars and Vehicles (Hardcover)

One of the worst Bond books I've ever seen. It doesn't cover every vehicle from the films. It provides very little detail about the vehicles it does cover , and the pictures provided are of very poor quality. They are either photos taken of production stills , or were shot off of a high res video screen. If you want a good Bond book , look elsewhere.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor Format, December 29, 2010

This review is from: Bond Cars and Vehicles (Hardcover)

The format of this book does not accurately represent the intent of its subject. The dimensions of the book are inadequate. Displaying cars and vehicles from the James Bond films across 2 pages with the binding in the center of each picture does not do justice to each image. It is a rather annoying effect. The publisher(s) and editor(s) should have really thought this one out. As a flip through book I suppose it is acceptable, but nothing beyond that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Waste your Time or Money - Terrible Book, January 28, 2012

This review is from: Bond Cars and Vehicles (Hardcover)

This book was a huge disappointment!

The title is misleading. It should be called, "Brief descriptions of scenes from Bond movies, with a screen capture photo."

A child could have written this book.

Sad, sad rip off.
