5.0 out of 5 stars The mini-review gold standard October 12, 2012
By DocJohn
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have used all of the so-called movie guides - this is the one I keep coming back to, at least every other year or so. It is, with the current edition, the concise, yet somehow deep, source I always give credibility to.

The reviews are good as usual but the small format is very annoying on the eyes. I usually get the larger edition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Paper vs digital September 24, 2012
By Powell
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Extremely disappointing with the Kindle version.The search function is very slow. To get to a specific movie takes forever. Much faster by a factor of 10 to use the paper version. The same applies to searching for actors. This edition takes no advantage of being digital. Where is the director listing? Why no search by number of stars or by genre. Maybe someone will write an app for this. Otherwise buy paper.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unable to use
The book is so thick and the print is so small you need a magnifying glass to see the reviews of the movies. I do not recommend this book as much as I would like to. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A Standard for movie reviews
Maltin's guide is a standard for movie reviews. It has most newer movies but unfortunately does not have as many of the older movies or some of the less viewed movies. Read more
