I think this is a good resource and will teach you some very good techniques on how to force a card. The nice part is the variety of fources to go through and find a few you like and that are good for your performing style. I bought the DVD for finer points on the classic force and discovered several others that I liked as well such as the glide force. This is not an entertaining video thus the 4 stars however the material is well presented and will give you some very good options for forcing a card.

Choices choices

There are so many forces to choose from on this instructional. As with anything, I suppose learning a couple and making them your own is the best thing. That's what I've done. I've learned a couple forces and learned them well. I use them all the time (Riffle and Glide) and that works just fine with me. The others are there on the dvd if I need them. That's a wonderful feeling knowing I always have so many more to fall back on if I need to.

A good resource BUT...
by Chris Beason from Atlanta, Georgia on 04/05/2010 05:41:27
This is a fantastic resource for learning about some simple forces.... However, there are some reasons why I rate this three stars.
First off, and this may sound odd, but I like professionalism and entertainment value in my magic DVDs. This had neither.
-The transitions, music and editing effects were all obviously ones that were just cheaply found online with no real thought being put into them.
-The forces are NOT original and almost all of them can be learned in the classic texts of magic.
-THIS MAN WILL PUT YOU TO SLEEP. I have fallen asleep more times that I can count while attempting to watch this. This guy makes David Roth seem like Bill Malone! I don't know about you, but if I was JUST starting out in magic, I feel that this would give a horrifyingly bad reputation to magicians and their presentational skills.
I dunno. I think that there isn't enough there to justify buying this when you could go spend 8 dollars on Royal Road To Card Magic and learn 9x what you learn here WITHOUT falling asleep.

Essential
[Verified buyer] by Chris Turchinski from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada on 04/05/2010 05:23:08
Card forcing is an essential tool for all magicians to know. This DVD will teach you a ton of ways that you can do this. Although you obviously aren't going to use them all, you will probably fall in love with 3 or 4 and you'll stick with those for a long time, if not forever. If you are unfamiliar with this concept, this DVD is a great place to start.

40 WAYS! Unbelievable!
[Verified buyer] by Anonymous from Jacksonville, FL on 04/03/2010 19:14:13
A different force for all your card tricks. I like it because it allows you to pick and choose and you don't have to use the same old force over and over again. The variety will keep your audience wondering becasue they will not be able to pick up on any set of moves. I wouldn't leave home without it.
and share your thoughts with other magicians!
