I can counter that by saying that I did the routine today with really great reactions
Is it easy to do ? No Is there some memory work ? Yes but only few cards has to be remembered Any sleight of hands ? Yes but nothing really hard Are the explications easy to follow ? Not really, I had to watch some parts twice to really understand what was going on But at the end, you leave the audience with the impression that you really memorized the whole deck and you have real convincers for that So I'll recommend it if you love the effect and want an accessible method to do a memorized deck routine, not the best routine I purchased this year, but far from being the worst |

That's a very balenced perspective. It definitely has its pros and cons.

I think the routine is good. Shame that the explanation is horrendous. I expect way more from Vernet.

The first phase is the same as David Regal's move a card that I have been for years.

Here is what I thought...
Title: Total Recall Creator: Manuel Llaser Publisher: Vernet MSRP: $ 30 Skill Level: Advanced DVD Run time: 80 minutes Type of effect: deck memorization routine Manufacturer's Write Up: The spectator gives you a well shuffle deck of cards, you have never seen before, and after 30 seconds of memory effort and 200 neurons less you are able to name any card at any number given. The position in that deck of any card named. Also the position of any four of a kind given by the spectator Any sequence of consecutive cards memorize by a member of the audience, and at the end you can recite all the deck in order, or what its even better, gives the deck to the spectator as a present and he can call you any time he wants and you can recite the order for him. How accurate is the ad copy? This is an accurate depiction of what happens. What's in the box? A DVD Key points: No Mnemonics, Any shuffled deck, Any time, anywhere, Convince your audience of your super memory power. Bonus track: "How to recite the whole deck" Be able to remember the deck forever. The spectator can call you any time and you can recite the entire order of the deck. 100% audience tested My thoughts: This will take practice, a well rehearsed routine with patter and a lot of memorization. This trick is a masterpiece in Manuel's hands, because it is his baby. For you to be able to perform it like him is going to take the same effort he has given it. Is it well made: It's a Spanish speaking DVD, but since I don't speak Spanish, I have to listen to the dubbing which was extremely poor. Is it well taught: Based on the dubbing alone, the poor transcript read makes for a difficult learning experience, plus sitting though 80 minutes of it makes it extremely laborious. How are the production values: Moderate Overall score: 7/10 Here is my video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnRYHjYQ38Y |

Just got my magic magazine and see that the reviewer also agreed with some voices here.. Extremely hard to follow the explanation.. it takes a lot of work to extract the method here.. at least I had an awful time .. and frankly lost interest.. I can see how it is strong but impossible to decipher.. maybe that's a good thing.
