5.0 out of 5 stars NOW THIS IS WHAT I CALL A REVIEW BOOK!, September 22, 2003

By	Mr. Logan (Paris, France) - See all my reviews

Now this is what I call a review book! I'm a huge movie buff, and most review books I've bought so far are just plain annoying. Critics trying to be smart, trying to see the artsy in everything.
Well, with Berge G., it's all different. He presents the 50 Coolest Movies of All Time, and his book definitely is the Coolest Review Book of All Time. What makes the difference is that this man is a movie buff himself -- he knows what he's talking about. Add to that the writing, which is always funny, always spot-on, and always engaging, and you'll enjoy this cool book as much as you'll enjoy any of the movies reviewed: balls to the wall.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must for any movie buff, September 25, 2003

By	"feydharkonnen" (Neutral Bay, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews

I discovered this book through JoBlo's website, and it's a wonderful take on all of our fave films. Jo not only gives a fair and honest review to some of the best movies out there, he includes fascinating tidbits on "behind-the-scenes" action, as well as why he found each film so engrossing. It's as well-written as the reviews you find on his website, each chapter endowed with Jo's razor-sharp humour and wit.

I've recommended this book to all of my fellow film-loving friends. If you love movies, you'll love this book and must add it to your library. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Movie-Fan Must, September 22, 2003

By A Customer

I've been a fan of Berge Garabedian for a while, and spend a good deal of time on his website, joblo.com. Garabedian's style is user-friendly. He resists the common, off-putting preachiness that most main stream movie-goers so loathe, and delivers straight-forward, honest, and simple insights. It sits on my shelf with Ebert's HATED, HATED, HATED classic and one or two others.
As a fledgling film critic myself (http://www.reel-reviews.net), it has proved incredibly helpful. I was given Joblo.Com Presents as a Christmas gift last year and I still find myself reaching for it. Highly recommended.
