The reason I did not finish this book is because it included writing on a couple movies I intend to watch or rewatch and wanted to do so before getting her opinions. And also because my antipathy is so great re the American Pie universe that I couldn't bring myself to read that essay.
Her break-everything style can make it tough to tell whether she likes a movie or not until you get to the ratings at the end, but irreverence is fine, isn't it? Even if I think Back to the Future Part II is better than she says, it hardly deserves a hearty defense. They are movies. They'll be fine.
And you deserve a laugh.
Have you looked outside lately?

ReplyDeleteLady Steed's most of the way through it now (and yes she too has skipped some) and she's made the sensible point that, really, it's not a book to rush through. The fun of the book is more intact when it doesn't become tired or redundant. Which is to say, maybe don't read this book in three settings?
