    Is it worth 30 bucks? If you're heavily invested in its movie-making tech, or didn't struggle with the late game busywork, the answer is probably, though a 10-dollar shave seems more appropriate since stunt antics add relatively little to the sim game.
  3. Although Stunts & Effects is an intriguing collection of scraps from Lionhead's cutting-room floor, it just isn't worth the price. [Sep 2006, p.58]

    One of the poorest excuses for an expansion pack that I ever played. It fixes very few of the flaws in the original Movies while adding a bunch of eye candy. Expand
