Book Reviews of Real Men: According to Jim
Book Review: I give it one star because I couldn't give it a zero star!
Summary: 1 Stars
First, not to bash on Belushi but the guy can't even compose a sentence never mind write a paragraph - an entire book is way beyond his capacity - but being a Hollywood actor I'm sure there's no shortage of ghost writers to write about his twisted ideology.
This is the same guy who sold my father his used Land Rover which promptly broke down within 24 hours of picking it up from his Studio. When I called him he told me to take him to court - which I did. He brought in an expert witness that never even seen the vehicle and lied to the judge who was mechanically clueless. That's being a real man!
I had the expert witness fired for his testimony so that was more than enough satisfaction for me.
When I flew out to LA to go to court I ran into a film production executive who told me that Belushi is largely regarded as a jerk in Hollywood. I couldn't agree more with him.
He can't even give these books away never mind try to sell them - in fact he did try to give them away to his stunned staff on Martha's Vineyard as a gift for working for him all summer last year!!!
Anyway, that's just a little insight about Belushi's true character from my experience in dealing with him.
Summary of Real Men: According to Jim
In real life as well as on his long-running hit sitcom According to Jim, Jim Belushi is known as a guy's guy: He's often irascible, generally bombastic, and married to a babe who loves him because underneath it all he's got a heart of gold. But it wasn't always so -- Belushi hit bottom, hard, before climbing back to where he is now. In his book of manly instruction, now in paperback, Belushi offers sage advice from the school of hard knocks, including:--How to Be a Man: featuring Subjects All Men Must Be Versed In (meat, war, sports, television, and "knowing a guy who . . .");
--Dating: including How to Get a Phone Number, and Pretending to Be a Lot More Interesting Than You Really Are;
--The Book of Love: unbeatable advice for long-term success, like Say No to Every Fourth Question, and Once in a While, Be Vulnerable.
