This is the problem area in that sentence:
<i>... it was both surprising and a revolution in its special effects.</i>
surprising = participle, serving as an adjective
revolution = noun
You'll need to make them both adjectives or both nouns. There is no one right answer! Give it a try, and I'll check your work for you.
