Gary Darwin is one of magic's biggest cheerleaders. He's also one of my heros.

When you see Gary performing magic, you see a man who is exactly where he wants to be. Like he always says, if he had a billion dollars, what would he do? Another magic show! It couldn't be more true.

Gary's love of magic is contagious. Watch this DVD, and you'll either fall in love with magic, or remember why you did years ago.

It's aimed at younger beginners, but a seasoned pro shouldn't be too surprised to learn a thing or two! Gary has been performing magic for over 50 years, and teaching it for almost as long.

Classics of magic along with original ideas are taught on this wonderful DVD.

Enjoy,

Acar Altinsel
born to perform.

Not sure what all the positive reviews are for. I bought this for my 6 year old daughter based on these reviews and I’m really disappointed. Not only are the tricks mostly stuff you learn on a playground he doesn’t really give a kid any way to present it other than “look what I can do, I’m smarter than you.” Which having now seen more of Gary’s stuff isn’t surprising because that seems to be the way he performs.

Also when he is in the studio with the young lady he comes off as the uncle that is paying attention to his niece for the wrong reasons. He was surprised when she knew how to do some of the tricks like she was supposed to be there as eye candy only and couldn’t possibly be intelligent. She also appears uncomfortable and I don’t blame her. I kept waiting for him to try to goose her.

Overall really disappointed and felt cringy for a bunch of reasons the whole time. He is a magician who time has left behind and he has not aged well.

In my opinion don’t buy.

Hey there!

I had the luck and pleasure to get this for free (through download) and I totally recomend this DVD for beginners and non beginners!

It goes from amateur to advanced moves and tricks.

It also has a lot of '' chapters '' , chapters about each kind of trick, chapters about magic itself, and even Gary's personal opinion about magic!

If you are into magic for only 1 week, 1 day, one month or whatever, I would highly recomend you to get this DVD! If you're not (like me), just get it too! xD

Really really good DVD, get it! :) Thank you Penguin Magic and Gary Darwin's awesome job !!! :D

(PS: Excuse me for my bad English)

There are some decent effects for beginners on this one, but the layout of the DVD is a little tricky (maybe not as user friendly as I’d like). You also get the “creepy old man” vibe as Gary interacts with his pretty, young, assistant.

I do not normally get DVD's, but my grand daughter wants to learn magic! This DVD (by one of my mentors) fit the bill perfectly!
