4.0 out of 5 stars Fun group game
This game is like a eating a cream puff - a tasty but one-dimensional treat.

If you aren't used to DVD-based board games, the switching between the board and DVD can take some getting used to. However, this is the nature of these types of games and not really a major issue once you get used to it. The board portion is just like any board game, it's the DVD...

3.0 out of 5 stars scene it2
We have the first one which is a lot of fun to play. I bought this one for my 14 year old daughter who loves movies and games. We thought there would be newer movies, movies that she would know or would have seen. It's still fun to play, but not enough recent stuff.

This game is like a eating a cream puff - a tasty but one-dimensional treat.

If you aren't used to DVD-based board games, the switching between the board and DVD can take some getting used to. However, this is the nature of these types of games and not really a major issue once you get used to it. The board portion is just like any board game, it's the DVD portion and the level of interaction that it provides that gives it a definite boost in entertainment value. It's a nice feature to be able to use videos and pictures to solve clues.

However, I wouldn't exactly call this game educational unless you need to brush up on your entertainment knowledge for your audition of 1 vs 100. Of course, this isn't the focus of the game but none-the-less, since it lacks the breadth of a game like trivial pursuit it won't hold the interest of those who prefer broader questions in their trivia games.

What it lacks in breadth, it makes up in depth and the DVD does a good job of shuffling the questions enough to prevent too much repetition. Even your resident movie buff will be challenged by some of the more obscure questions. All in all a very entertaining game that works well for small groups.

I purchased this for a christmas party for 15 adults to play.
We divided up into three teams of five and played the party play option.
We had a timer going for ten minutes per team of party play and the team who got the most trivia correct won and got to pick a game gift first from the game gift pile. Everyone enjoyed it and it was quick not too long, funny, fun and good camaraderie...
I recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coming To A Family Room Near You..., January 15, 2009
Durability:3.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Scene It? Deluxe Movie 2nd Edition (Toy)
My wife and I love this game. Both of us are big film buffs and the questions can still be a challenge. The easy menu on the DVD is great and very user-friendly. Sometimes it takes a moment for the questions to pop up on the screen due to load time. Since it is a DVD, the durablity is questionable. Overall, we highly recommend this game to anyone who loves movies and pop culture.

The game is a nice introduction to the family of Scene-it games. I was a little disappointed at the difficulty level of the questions. I felt that the first version of the game was much more challenging, but this would be a nice way to introduce someone to the game. Overall it is a good game though. Enjoy!

I played this with some friends and their son. I am 27, my friends are 34 & 41 and the son is 14. It's hard for sure, but fun. My friends didn't know most of the answers, but the son and I did. It's like watching a bunch of movie previews. It's awesome!

I would check out Screen Life Games on the Net first before buying any Scene It games. You can play the game online first to see if you may or may not like it.

It's a great party game and it's super fun! Enjoy!

the game proved to be lots of fun and you quickly learn how much you do and don't know about the movies. like many new games, there are many versions and editions, so be sure to grab the one you really want.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun but a little deceiving, February 28, 2009

This review is from: Scene It? Deluxe Movie 2nd Edition (Toy)
I bought this for family game night -parents early 40's kids tweens/early teens. The packaging and descriptions lead me to believe that it had many newer movies but in playing it thrice now we really haven't come across too many. The focus seems to be on movies from the 80' and 90's which makes it less fun for the kids. We've solved this by playing teams. If it had more movies from the 2000's, as I thought that it did I would have rated it higher.
