I enjoyed Invisible more than 22 Blows. I know they are aimed at performing completely different effects, but I felt I'd got more for my money with Invisible somehow. There's some very good stuff on 22 Blows, but I wasn't happy with the way some of the effects were done - see the review as I think it was spot on for the most part. Some effects felt rushed and not thought through properly to me, but then it's also up to each performer to alter things to suit them.

I didn't like Homicide at all and thought the whole effect was very weak, partly due to the method (and for another glaring reason I won't mention here!). As the reviewer said, not liking this method rules out a few of the other effects on the DVD because they use effectively the same one.

If it helps, I think 22 Blows is worth the money even if you only pick 3 or 4 effects to use. Out of them all, there are going to be some that don't suit you, but you'll also get at least one real crowd pleaser. I'd say, that's a good balance :D
