I found it to be fun at first but didn't hold my interest for long. I few good shots, good ball time. Slow adding bonuses and starting next ball. Music/sounds get old quick. It is a good money maker on location but I don't think I would keep it in my personal collection.

Boring and annoying.

I guess it depends on the type of player you are. I'm pretty much a novice, just enjoy playing and learning, I'm not deep into rulesets or anything like that.
Personally I own one and its up for sale, not because I don't like it, but because i've had my fun and like a lot of pinheads we just upgrade and buy more expensive toys eventually and I don't have room for a plethora of games in my home. My GF is actually attached to it but said it's ok to let it go since I got a Monopoly a couple weeks back.
I don't mind the music and sounds and thing it has some neat animations and sounds, but then again I enjoyed the movie too.

Is it a MM rival, clearly not. But I've certainly not as crappy as some of the games out there. I'd say you are pretty spot on with you price depending on condition of course.

Your mileage may vary.....

I own one and I love it.

It is OFTEN the first game I play after getting in from the office. The ruleset is NOT deep and that's what I need after work - as opposed to the deeper rules and DRAMA of something like Lord of the Rings or WOZ.

To me it is a game that suits a particular mood - and I can't foresee it going anyplace.

Nice lighting effects and energetic soundtrack and sounds.

DOES seem to have a Love / Hate reputation - as you see above.

And darn it if I can't figure out why it's the second best earning game on location besides Addams Family.
