| Blunt ReviewEmily BluntThis work reminds its lucky viewers why they fell in love with movie-going to begin with: the creative minds behind the frames that paint moving images to feed our imaginations. |
| DVDTalk.comBrian OrndorfWatching these well-known stories retold with fresh, innovative angles creates a very special, educational experience - absolute pure gold to anyone who has ever followed these careers with unabashed admiration. |
| Slant MagazineFernando F. CroceWhen "maverick" is thrown around this cheaply, it's just a step for somebody to mount an auteurist case for Chris Columbus. |
| User ReviewKyle GIf you are interested in the spirit of indpendent film making u should enjoy this. Interesting subject matter. I enjoyed the George Lucas, Francis Ford Coppola and Saul Zaentz sections the most. Wish they had gone into more detail as to why and how THX 38 failed at the box office, for it is possibly Lucas's best film ever. |
| User ReviewJason HAn interesting look at at San Francisco filmmakers and how they shaped the film industry forever. It gave me more respect for folks like George Lucas and Francis FOrd Coppola than ever. |
| User ReviewJim KThis is good if you want to know stuff about people that left the Hollywood paradigm. I think the biggest problem with this is that it jerks around way too much making it very difficult to remember stuff they just talked about. |
| User ReviewBrian CIt comes across like a fluff piece for San Fran...But there might be something more there. |
