"The charm and success of the book is that Loder brings his substantial writing skills-and his keen understanding of pop culture and how it works-to discussing both serious and zombie movies in a way that sounds like your best friend intelligently ranting to you about a film in a bar."- Publishers Weekly "If you love movies-even the bad ones-do yourself a favor and run to the nearest bookstore and buy this book. Keep it on your bedside table and I promise, you'll be a better person for it."- Tucson Citizen "Kurt Loder is an alien from outer space brought here to review movies.

Synopsis
The former Rolling Stone writer and MTV host takes off from classic Roger Ebert and sails boldly into the new millennium. Millions grew up reading the author's record reviews and watching him on MTV's The Week in Rock. In this collection of more than 200 movie reviews from MTV.com and, more recently, the Reason magazine Website, plus sidebars exclusive to this volume, Loder demonstrates his characteristic wry voice and finely honed observations. The author shines when writing on the best that Hollywood and indie filmmakers have to offer, and his negative reviews are sometimes more fun than his raves. This freewheeling survey of the wild, the wonderful and the altogether otherwise is an indispensable book for any film buff., The former Rolling Stone writer and MTV host takes off from classic Roger Ebert and sails boldly into the new millennium.

    Thank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.
