I found this well done Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 18th, 2013
so I am an amateur and only do tricks for family and friends. I would say I had an intermediate skill level, I do msotly packet tricks and do alright. But sometimes there is a move I do not know how to do and although I have all the books, most of those moves are on these disks For me just the two disks with moves on it were worth the price for me. But,,I always wanted to learn how to do the tricks that started most of the packet tricks I do and thanks to Gerry I now know how to Twist Aces, do a Technicolor trick, and do a Truimph routine with regular cards ,and, a lot of others. If you are new to card magic this is a great course and you can do tricks with virtually no skill in a short time. If you're an intermediate, there are a ton of things here to learn. If you are advanced I am not sure but for me,,I love this course. The disks teach you the tricks and the skills. But remember, you supply the practice and to do anything well, practice practice practice.

Great training videos! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 31st, 2012
It is really good. I think Gerry is a great teacher, and he teaches some really cool techniques. Disc 7 is probably my favorite disc because of all the sleights and awesome cuts, I especially like the octopus cut(though it is quite hard). I have been doing magic for about 9 months and this taught some really good card tricks.

this is a good source for card sleight, Gerry is not the best card magician in the world but his teaching is good and all the moves in this DVD is practical. So if you want to put your card sleight to the next level get this.

Excellent Set! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 7th, 2012
I bought all 7 volumes of this set. I think this set of 7 DVDs is amazing! Everyone from beginner to pro will find something on here. Gerry is an excellent teacher. He goes very slowly and thoroughly with all of his explanations. He really takes his time to actually teach you how to do everything so as to not leave you wondering what exactly to do. The first few DVDs are for beginning level tricks. But I must say, for beginning level tricks they are very good. The intermediate tricks and expert level tricks are really fun to watch and learn. He also teaches many very useful sleights and counts that every serious card magician should know. I enjoy Gerry's performances on the entire set. I find him to be both charming and classy. If you're looking for a Criss Angel type of flair you won't find it here, but you will be taught very well by one of the best card magicians out there.

Gerry "sometimes funny" Griffin Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 1st, 2007
This is a very good DVD Set for beginners and intermediates. Gerry Griffin is a little boring from time to time, but that´s ok. :-)
There are some very nice Tricks (Ambitious Card Routine, Chicaco Opener, Card Warp ...) and a good mix of cuts, slights and false shuffles.
All in all a must-have for all, who want lots of strong card tricks for an unbeatable price.
go for it ...

Great resource but... Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 25th, 2005
I love the set but a few caveats:

One, the music between chapters is WAY too loud .

Two , complete lack of crediting of effects.

That said Gerry has done a pretty good job of taking a complete perfectly graduated course on card magic. Disk 1 is almost a waste of time for most people but you learn those basic which still fool quite a few people. I use tricks from the second DVD in my walkaround and astound laymen with them. Dvd 6 and 7 are excellent sleight/force training tools but some times I think they would have reshot some of the sessions. I think this set is one of the most underrated DVD sets on the market right now.

A must for any Magician Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 4th, 2005
When I bought these DVDs I thought I would only use the stuff on volume 4-7. But I got so much more. Even volume 1 had some great effects that can fool any lay person and get a reaction that will make you smile. If you bought these tricks at a local magic store separately you would pay ten times the amount vs. buying these DVDs. And as I am becoming more and advanced I love being able to do tricks with a normal deck. That way I don't have to bring 50 different decks with me every where I go. Another great thing about these DVDs is Gerry is a great teacher, sure his patter may be a little weak but his teaching is superb. He shows it from all angles and explains the tricks great detail. I could go on and on about these DVDs. But I don't want to waste your time. So if you like card magic that gets a get huge reactions then there is know reason you shouldn't get this. It well worth the price. Have fun

Hi, i have purchased this dvd set and i can not be more satisfaied. This is not just useful for an intermediate magician,is great as it teaches a lot of tricks, easy to perform but good impact in the audience. I like Gerry teaching too, and i do not agree with other rewiews that consider him kind of boring. The only con i can see is the to some extent annoying music beetwen the tricks. I definitely recommend this item

This set has everything you need. Beginners should own medicine practice daily. Experienced card handlers will still benefit from many of the presentations. This is a great set to have.
