More reviews:
"Revolutionary ideas that soon will be the standard for all mentalists .... Worthy of being seen on TV and still be believable!"
- Joe Monti, National TV Producer (Criss Angel's Mindfreak)

"Utterly baffling."
- Colin McLeod

"To say that I'm impressed is an understatement! This is something I will carry with me personally everywhere I go. The secondary DVD also includes a staggering amount of additional files which open up limitless possibilities for magicians, mentalists and hypnotists alike. Words simply do not do this justice."
-Michael Murray

"This is one of those times I wish I could toss my moral compass out the window and just tell you this product is crap... just so I can keep it to myself."
-Bryce Kuhlman, My Lovely Assistant

"This is for the thinking mentalist who wants to be at the cutting edge of new ideas without using stooges or electronic gadgets. Real magic of the mind that takes advantage of how our minds work!"
-Paul Draper

"Chris, you are a freaking genius and you can quote me on that! The method is diabolical!"
-Matthew Johnson

"Ingenious and innovative... It's not often that some new and useful principle is brought to mentalists, but Chris Philpott has done just that. Highly recommended."
-Jheff

"This is just ridiculously good. I got it expecting to find it interesting and possibly useful. I was not expecting to be wholly blown away by it, which I was. What I wasn't prepared for was how well-executed they are, and the amount of work that Chris obviously put into them, on many levels, to make them as effective as possible. It's rare that I get this excited about a new mentalism item, but this absolutely warrants it."
-Joshua Quinn

"It's awesome!"
-Ran Pink

"A radically new breakthrough in the art of mentalism. The 100th Monkey is brilliant and takes dual reality to the next level, the effects are powerful and well thought out, even greater is the core technique which opens the door to endless possibilities!"
-Robert J. Gould

"I think it is great. I had to rub my eyes a few times just looking at it!"
-Craig Filicetti

"This is effing great, so please stop talking about this. The fewer that know about this, the better!"
-Sean Fields

"BRILLIANT!! No hype... No BS.... Everyone we have shown it to is blown away. Thank you for producing something that is really worth more than the asking price. WE LOVE THIS THING!!"
-Paul Gross

"In the hands of a good performer, it can become a deadly psychological weapon, to produce the most organic mind reading ever! I can't recommend The 100th Monkey highly enough."
-Robert Marsi

"A LOT of work went into this and Chris's passion and personal investment is obvious in all aspects of the production. Great job!"
-Bill Cushman

"This is easily one of the best releases within the past year - pure genius."
-Brett Barry

"Excellent, top of the line stuff from a master... this is the sort of thing that other performers buy the rights to in order to keep to themselves."
-Atlas Brookings

****This review is only slightly different from my review for the original 100th Monkey (which can be found here: http://mylovelyassistant.com/products/view/20071). Here are the main differences:

You get the same DVD with this as the original and as with the original, it is only in English.

You get 11 printed cards with a jumble of other languages. My set contained a mix of Chinese, Japanese, Hebrew, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and Swedish cards.

The second disc contains the PDF instructions for the 100th Monkey in each of the languages as well as over 500 combined files of artwork for each language. Each language has its own file so you do not have to sift through one file to find your language(s), which makes it very easy to use. NOTE: The Chinese, Hebrew, Norwegian and Japanese files contain the artwork for ONLY the Speechless effect.

The ad copy for this multi-language set is 100% accurate.

I love this set because it allows me to do some of the same things in my shows that are not in English. Even if you only speak English and have your basic high school/college level knowledge of any of the languages on this disc, there are some great presentation possibilities when combined with the English version.

So, why did I give this a half star less? Because while it contains everything for 12 other languages, it does not contain any of the English files. To me it made absolutely no sense to release a multi-lingual version of a product and not include the English files on it. After all, it does not matter if you buy the original release or this multi-lingual set, the DVD is ONLY in English and there may be foreign performers (non-native English speakers, in this case) that may use English in their shows and buy this, thinking they can use the English version in tandem (or not) with their native language version. Though the ad copy is 100% accurate, there should have been a disclaimer saying that no English files are contained in this set.

I will say though that the effects, where applicable, work just as well in other languages as they do in English.

VERY, VERY highly recommended if you have use for the multi-lingual aspect of this principle.
