My interest is for interviewing and interrogating crime related persons. I know reading body language is a good tool, but this DVD is not about body language. I place it in a category with stereotyping people based on physical atributes, something the courts frown on. It did not provide anything useful.

This has nothing to do with reading facial expressions. I bought it for a class I teach on interpersonal skills thinking it would be about how to read facial expressions. Its not: The woman says things like: If a person has a wide forehead their personality is like xyz. If a person has a wide chin they act like this. I am amazed that amazon even sells stuff like this- This video has NOTHING to do with body language/ facial expressions. The statements are no more scientific than saying that if a person has brown hair they are smart, if they have blonde hair they like ice cream.....

when amazon recomended this book to be coupled with a body language book i imagined the two items to compliment each other. In actuallity this dvd is not about reading the emotions or reactions based on facial expressions.

If I could have given less than 1 star I would have done so. This is a terrible video and not at all worth the cost. I recommend the professionally produced Body language video from the History Channel. That was much better than this garbage.

For the gentlemen looking for interview and interrogation, try Wicklander associates or look into Paul Eckman resources. I've only formally studied the subject matter for 15 years, but it took less than 15 minutes to figure this was a fraud.

I'm sorry to say I will not put in enough time to determine the root cause of the bunk, or for her benefit, poppycock and balderdash.

Tying experience with a facial attribute is impossible. This is neither scientific nor valuable in any way.

It's possible she's stupid enough to believe this. It's possible that it's just a send me money DVD. It's possible she's mentally infirm, as that is the way she appears at times.

Whatever the case, after watching this I only feel like I know less than I did before. Watching this will only destroy valuable brain cells that you may need later. I've only met one person I couldn't read in the last 5 years. Now, I'm afraid I won't be able to read any.

The product name and subsequent narrative on this product leads one to believe that you will learn how to read facial expressions of those you deal with versus a book about genetic facial structure having little to do with understanding those that you're dealing with.

I have never ever wasted my money on a porduct as bad as this dvd.

Its a bunch of bull from the beginning to the end... no scientific facts or arguments just a 50 year old lady telling stories like.. if your upper lip is fat then you like to share youre feelings, while if you have a slim upper lip... than you like to be left alone! and this kind of bull will go on for 50 minutes.

It is far worse than my English writting. Thats how bad it is!!

This was not at all what I thought I was purchasing. Its unprofessional, vague, badly researched. A poorly done home made DVD. I want my money back. Great cover.

I'm like to think I'm open minded, but this "...if his nose points up at the end this he's a mean person..." junk is total BS. I thought this was going to be about interpreting facial expressions, but instead it was about how people with sloping foreheads like to go fast and if you have a high belly button you prefer to sit more than others.

Whut?!

Don't waste your time with this ignorant voodoo.

This is not about how to read facial expressions but how a person will act or feel based on genetic characters.
