"A must for screenbuffs"
Australian Penthouse
Australia
"It is the lavish and sometimes stunning reproductions of the film stills that sets this books apart from other movie guides and makes Movies of the 80s and extravagant accompaniment to any film buff's library."
RockSound, London
United Kingdom
"Les auteurs ne prennent pas leur lectorat pour du mou de veau avide de luxueux livres de Noël. Un ouvrage important."
Repérages, Paris
France
"C'est un beau livre comme TASCHEN sait en éditer."
Studio magazine, Paris
France
"I didn't think a pictorial record of a decade of film-making would be that interesting. But how wrong can you be?...What makes the book stand out is the attention given to largely forgotten (though highly impressive) films like The Falcon and the Snowman (1984), Something Wild (1987) and The Sheltering Sky (1990)."
Essex Chronicle, Suffolk
United Kingdom
"The welcome second volume of Taschen's excellent eye candy-stuffed series chronicles the decade where excess, enormity and experimentalism ruled the roost. As in the '90s volume, Euro critics compile 145 films that define the '80s' wild cinematic frontier, with the criteria of 'successful and influential' as the yardstick. Pleasingly profiled, all the usual suspects are here, though there is one highly curious omission (no Raiders?) and the odd bewildering choice (Never Say Never Again?). However, the 850+ pages of gorgeous photography can easily make you forgive this (and the error about Batman's release date)."
Empire, London
United Kingdom
"A useful reference work that`s worth buying for the pretty pictures alone."
Total Film, London
United Kingdom
"Une savoureuse plongée dans les images des années scoubidou"
DS, Paris
France
"Un album foisonnant, présentant 145 films sur 10 ans, avec style comme il se doit."
La Libre Belgique, Bruxelles
Belgium
