It's an interesting DVD with some great ideas on it. There certainly are some very nice ideas with a range of plots. The biggest con with this DVD is that they present it in a rather questionable manner - the premise of the DVD is that the two conmen are showing magic to a kidnapped fellow who owes them money (-.-). So, you'll have to come up with all your presentations yourself. I wouldn't say it's my favourite DVD I've ever bought - but it has a couple of really good ideas for everyone. Some of the effects require a fairly extensive setup (though minimized where possible and linked). The effect using the Breakless Curry, the two card peek and control, and the collecters variation are some of the better ones in my opinion (didn't really like most of the gambling routines). Also, the triumph is perhaps one of the easiest I've ever seen.
