TOP 1000 MOVIES OF ALL TIME AS VOTED ON BY MOVIE-GOERS,
By
This review is from: Movie Guide (Zagatsurvey) (Paperback)
I find this Zagat survey of movies particularly handy when I want to rent a movie and want to see something that has stood the test of time.Viewers have numerically rated their favorite movies by Overall Quality, Acting, Story, and Production Values. Under each title in the alphabetical section, there is a short paragraph made up of a sampling of viewer comments. This alphabetical listing contains the 1000 movies that the (large) sampling of viewers named as their favorites In addition to this alphabetical list there are categorical lists such as lists: . . . . by Overall Quality in descending order . . . . by genres, in descending rating order in each genre. . . . . by Decade (from the 1910/1920's to the 2000's) . . . . by Lead Actor . . . . by Director . . . . by Subject/Style . . . . by Foreign Film and Country . . . . and many more. Under each category, there is a an alphabetic listing which, of course, is in addition to the overall alphabetical listing of the complete thousand entries. As I stated in the beginning of this review, I find this guide very handy because I can find so much information so easily. Also, the back cover of the survey tells us that there are 50 handy indexes (some of which I have listed above) which make large quantities of information readily accessible. By using this survey, you can select a movie based on the opinions, not of critics, but of other movie-goers. In my opinion. this is a better way to choose a movie than to just rely on the word of the professional critics.
