Review of 'Ayoade on Top' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

4/5

Being taken through one the worst films ever made by no other than Richard Ayoade himself is undoubtedly a funny experience. Read this entire thing in Ayoade's voice, loved every bit.

Incredibly witty and full of references to great cinema and writing (which creates a really comic contrast when comparing to View from the Top, aka Hollywood garbage that can only ever be watched ironically).

I should note that I have never seen View from the Top (thankfully) but believe this book does a pretty good job at conveying its cliché and generic feel.
