Title: An easy fun read with little substance
Product review: I'm a big fan of Bamberger's writing. His prose is still excellent, and if he could have pried his lips off of Shyamalan's backside for a bit, this book could have been very good. Instead it appears as though the author fancied a career as Night's PR director in the near future. A big disappointment. Honestly, the heavy-handed rose-colored portrayals of Night's actions and personality are too much to bear and are as transparent as they are unbelievable. Any facts that contradict or shed a truly critical eye on the director are ignored or clumsily dismissed. Tellingly, Bamberger ends his lovefest before the movie is released...sparing himself the task of justifying what a horrible bomb this "masterpiece" turned out to be.
