The Secret (Extended Edition)

Product Details

Most of the material here is given in a straightforward manner, with the presenters simply talking into the camera to address the audience directly, which is good because it avoids the trap of pretense. On the other hand, the quick edits between presenters (would it hurt to let them say more than one sentence at a time?) don't help because it reduces many of their points to palatable sound bites and aphorisms. To many viewers, this may make the program come across as a series of nice ideas not rooted in reality. Plus it's somewhat spurious to claim that The Secret was well understood and practiced by specific individuals like Plato or Shakespeare (it's well known that some of the historical figures noted didn't exactly live happy or even prosperous lives, despite their achievements). But still, the primary message is one of positivity and hope for everyone. So what to make of it? In the end, programs like this generally find an audience that is open to the message, and many will probably find it to be a source of inspiration. Others will approach it with a good deal of skepticism or dismiss it as another way of marketing happiness the masses. It simply wont resonate with everyone, but if it resonates with you, you're likely to enjoy it and get a lot out of it.

Product Reviews

(1 stars) - unsatisfactory product
I am very upset by the quality of the DVD "The Secret" as it is not not working and contacted the company and they are least concerned about their coustomer service.

(5 stars) - The Secret(Extended Edition)
After reading the book watching the film made things much clearer
I would highly recommend this film.

(5 stars) - Secret is thought provoking.
I thought the secret was thought provoking. I intend to apply some of the concepts to my life. While some of the concepts might seem very difficult to swallow, I think one should try to have an open mind and see what you can glean from it. I believe it is better to stay positive and think happy thoughts as the secret states instead of wallowing in misery.

(5 stars) - Very Encouraging and Enlightening...
I am definitely a fan of this dvd. A friend of mine let me borrow it back in September for about 2 days. A few weeks later, I got right on Amazon and ordered it for myself.

It's best to watch it several times. I even have times that I put it on while I am doing other things just so that I hear it in the background. I like to let it soak in many different ways.

This is a recommended buy! I proves all of the things I thought. The mind is a powerful thing and I have found a few changes in my life since living by this.

Even my 11 year old daughter has watched it with me. Now of course she can't sit through the entire video BUT she definitely got something out of it when it comes to positive thinking and being able to do or be any and everything desired in life...

(5 stars) - Great film!
I really have gotten a lot out of this movie and recommend it to as many people as I can.
