Negative Positive
Title: Worthless
Review: This is one of the worst books I've ever read, about anything, ever. If you follow some of the advice in this book, you will actually be a worse filmmaker than if you just started bumbling your way through it on your own. (And, some of his advice will land you in jail, if you get caught.)The book is poorly written, incoherent at times, and each short section only conveys the vaguest information possible about the subject it purports to be about. The tone is sarcastic and vaguely insulting. Some of the advice was so stupid I was offended by it. I've read at least fifty books about filmmaking, and this is hands-down the worst. Period. It's hard to comment on the information in much detail, because there is so little depth to the information in this book that it's like reading a ream of blank paper.If you read this book, you'll need to read at least one good one to understand all the vague things, and un-lear all the incorrect things, that you'll hear about filmmaking from this piece of junk.
Is the review positive or negative?
