The Blurb On The Back:
The geek shall inherit the earth …
Movie Geek is a nerdy dive into popular movies, brought to you by the award-losing Den of Geek website. Discover hidden stories behind movies you love (and, er, don’t love so much), and find out just why the most dangerous place to be is in a Tom Hanks film.
Fascinating, surprisingly and hugely entertaining, this left field movie guide is gold for film buffs, and might just bring out the geek - hidden or otherwise - within you …
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Simon Brew is the founder and former editor-in-chief of the Den of Geek website while Ryan Lambie is deputy editor and Louisa Mellor is the television editor. This is an entertaining collection of articles and movie trivia structured around the life span of a film that covers a range of genres. I’d have liked more foreign and old movies to be covered but the writers clearly love the medium and you’re guaranteed to learn something interesting.
Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
