[De Semlyen] does well in covering the stars who are his focus, with their rivalries and trash-talking providing some bursts of humour.
There’s history to tell in The Last Action Heroes, but there’s not really a cohesive, galvanizing story.
The eight-hander format might have undone The Last Action Heroes were it not for its deft, hilarious, overlapping weave of anecdotes and detail.
This book can be enjoyed on several levels. Readers who want A-lister trivia... will find plenty of satisfaction. Those looking for high-level film criticism mixed with social commentary are also in for a treat..
A joyful romp featuring larger-than-life characters, iconic movies, and plenty of behind-the-scenes info..
The author shows plenty of love for the high-adrenaline classics he discusses.
