1.0 out of 5 stars For Kids Only, June 28, 2004

I should have picked up on this from the reviews, and the award from Kids First, but I didn't. My low rating is for adults, or even older kids. Other reviewers liked it, so it might be fine for kids 8 or 9 and under, but the card tricks are really lame for anyone else. Be advised that this DVD is FOR KIDS ONLY.

2.0 out of 5 stars Redundant information, February 7, 2005

This review is from: Magicfrank's Lessons In Magic - The Key To Card Magic (DVD)

I bought this DVD after "Magic with everyday objetcs" by the same author. That one was very good for beginners, but this card magic DVD is not good at all. Instead of explaining different "card forces", key cards and tricks, Magic Frank explains a couple of forces and then repeat them throughout the DVD. For instance, Card in Pocket, Outside Box, Card in Wallet, Card in Box, Card in Shoe, The Future is Back... are all THE SAME TRICK, but he just changes the place where the guessed card will be (shoe, box, envelope...). It is absurd and a waste of time. He could say it out loud ("you can put the card in a box, shoe or wherever you want") instead of repeating the WHOLE trick over and over again. Sometimes I thought my DVD player was rewinding all the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, easy to follow magic for Kids -, July 19, 2004

Magic Frank's videos are instructional yet easy for kids to follow. I think they help build a child's confidence. My nephew Will LOVES these DVD's - he was able to do several tricks (which were impressive ! Not store bought tricks) after watching these videos the 1st time. He watches them over and over.
