"King has a good handle on both the commercial and the artistic aspects of cinema, which is necessary for comprehending the topic, and he states his case in an academic yet generally accessible manner." — Booklist
"A first-rate contribution to the field of film studies." — Chris Wyatt, Cinescape
"[King's] discussion of the genre is one of the most reasonable to be found anywhere. . . recommended." — Publishers Weekly
"Film professor King explores how popular films of the 60's through the 90's have been affected by Hollywood's primary function as a multibillion-dollar international business." — Variety
"Whatever your opinion of developments in American cinema over the last 30 years, you will be confirmed and challenged by King's aim of showing how these films can be approached and discussed in more than one way. . . . this is going to be a useful resource for student, tutor, aficionado and historian alike." — Film Quarterly
