"Step right up and get your fill of 80s nostalgia with the movie bible to end all movie bibles."
Penthouse, London
United Kingdom
"Un (gros) outil de travail, richement illustré, ou un (beau) cadeau de fin d'année"
Télérama, Paris
France
"Reviewing Movies of the 70s, ...80s, and ...90s, you'll relive these films mostly by way of the stills chosen for the book. Many of the photographs are grainy, even for recent films, which gives the whole enterprise a sense of nostalgia that's just a little disturbing. Even though many of the films covered in these books are what might be called ancient history, to me they're all still as immediate and fresh as the day they were released."
January Magazine.com, New Jersey
United States
"German publisher TASCHEN rarely does anything by halves, and so when you pick up a copy of their Movies of the 80s anthology/ companion/ compendium, you know that you'll be getting far more than any mere catalogue of the best-selling blockbusters of the era."

"A great trip."
Penthouse, Sydney
Australia
"A bold snapshot of an interesting era.... If you`re looking for in-depth analysis, this isn`t your book. The focus is on photos, not criticism. But if you want one volume that sums up the cinema excesses of the decade, Movies of the 80s belongs on your shelf."
Rockford Register Star, Rockford
United States
"Das Kino der Achtziger, so zeigt dieses gebundene Konzentrat, war schillernd, düster und gebrochen. Wem das auch heute noch vom Auge in die Seele läuft, wird von diesem Buch nicht lassen können"
artmagazine, Wien
Austria
"stellt alles in den Schatten, was bisher auf dem Markt der Film- Nachschlagewerke erschienen ist. Inhaltlich und formal. Das opulent bebilderte Buch bewahrt etwas von der Magie der belebten Bilder, hier berühren sich Kino und Literatur ... Die Autoren schreiben frei von elitärem Dünkel, temperamentvoll und gehaltvoll zugleich."
Bonner General-Anzeiger, Bonn
Germany
"Pour les nostalgiques et les passionnés, les éditions TASCHEN lancent une fantastique anthologie illustrée du cinéma des années 80."
DS, Paris
France
"... it is the lavish and sometimes stunning reproductions of the film still that sets this book apart from other movie guides and makes Movies of the 80s an extravagant accompaniment to any film buff's library."
Rock Sound, London
United Kingdom
