( ) Bruce's earnest and irreverent voice comes through in this amusing memoir that just about brings his story up-to-date. It's all here: life in rural Oregon, making B movies for SciFi channel, making Burn Notice, remaking Evil Dead. Bruce is that guy with dozens of funny stories that will keep you entertained for hours and still want more. Bruce Campbell's follow-up to his first autobiographical volume, If Chins Could Kill. He originally conceived of this as less of a memoir and more of a travelogue, and there's still a significant focus on different places he's been, including the quirky area of rural Oregon where he bought a house that was half underground; Bulgaria, where he filmed the twin classics of modern cinema, Alien Apocalypse and The Man with the Screaming Brain; Miami, where he spent seven years making Burn Notice and sweating heavily in the heat; and Iraq, where he and co-star Jeffrey Donovan spent time entertaining US troops during the second Gulf War. None of it is particularly compelling, or insightful, or surprising, or anything like that, but it's a pleasant, easy read in a way that was exactly what I was in the mood for. Bruce comes across very much the way you'd expect him to: unpretentious and mildly sarcastic, with a fun, if slightly cheesy, sense of humor. And even though I've always been more of a casual viewer of his stuff than a die-hard fan, I find I've come out of this feeling nicely nostalgic about his body of work. I'd forgotten just how much I enjoyed Burn Notice, really. And now I have a very strong desire to dig out my DVD copy of Bubba Ho-Tep and give it another re-watch. (Seriously, that was a genuinely good movie!) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
