From recent-ish Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Once again Taschen has asked Jürgen Müller, the chair for art history at the University of Dresden, to prepare a book outlining the best movies of the 2000s - movies at the dawn of the third millennium. It is a bargain of a book and a fine stroll down memory lane."; "Great book, pictures are incredible, and recaps of the movies very informative."; "Very good! I have the 70,80 and 90 - and now 2000 in my collection. I loved all of them. If you love movies, you will love it"; "Great colorful movie stills bring back the memories from the movies! Always a quality book from the publisher. I have most of the movie series from Taschen and am never disappointed!"
