Jim BelushiReal Men Don't Apologize

Let me begin by saying that I've been a regular fan of Jim Belushi's since I saw him in 2000's RETURN TO ME (he steals the show in the scene where he takes off his shirt to flex his somewhat flabby pecs and his now famous Buddha-belly dance for Bonnie Hunt and Minnie Driver) and I keep up with his ABC series ACCORDING TO JIM; and I've seen a handful of his other films (most notably the poignant and family-oriented K-9 and also the completely forgettable sexual thriller TRACES OF RED; a sidenote: for someone who enjoys taking off his shirt and showing off his "body" he was pretty chicken to not do a simulated nude scene, one where he was at least nude from the waist up; but either way don't even bother with that one; rent K-9 or even MR. DESTINY).That said, Belushi really makes a nose-dive with his recent attempt at writing a self-help book that really just makes him out to be a chauvanistic, self-important pig from hell. I really only enjoyed a small handful of passages in this book therefore making the rest of it an overbearing task to read. Usually if I enjoy a good book I can't put it down and finish it within a week or two. It took over 6 weeks to finsih this one, mostly because I found other books that were better and then I returned to finishing this one and it was completely anti-climactic.I'm realy sorry Jim, I know you did this just for the easy cash, but you don't have what it takes to make it as a humorist writer... you're too macho, too insensitive and way too cynical (something I've always found repellant in people). When you write your autobigoraphy, maybe I'll read that (no promises, however) and until then, stick to comedy...

I normally read War books AND THIS ONE WAS MY ONLY EXCEPTION.I read this book when I was deployed in sand box. To be in a place where it's a little bit hard to be happy all the time .... This book made a differences, it was my outlet. It had me laughing from beginning to end. Jim Belushi is an expert in making light of a difficult situation. This book is written for mostly a male audience. Their are a couple of "man" quizzes which are fun and hilarious at the same time. He broke down the book in to three different books into one. The main objective of this book is to make you more of a man, now...... that can mean different things to different men. For some that can be to getting some booty, married, being a better supervisor, boss, sibling , or husband. For what ever reason you want or think of reading this book. I highly recommend it.

I have done "the weekend" like what Jim talks about. The Weekend is a great seminar on relationships. The book has more to do with what happened after the Weekend. Jim has maybe taking it a step further and added a lot of insights he has found over the years. I though the book was rather funny and a good read. I do not agree with most of his advise though. I feel he's right in saying most women carry the relationship and most do not want a whimpy man in there life.

I have to say I'm very surprised by this book. I bought it after seeing him interviewed about it on TV. I have never watched his show, and I don't think I've seen any of his movies, except maybe Red Heat. But this book is really hysterical. I laughed outloud several times. It's not highbrow humor or anything...far from it. It just has lots of humorous ways of looking at life, from a "guy's guy" point of view. Don't expect it to be more than that...but if you like a good belly laugh, this book has it. Look for the "Glurk!"

The book is not bad. It was kind of funny and has some gems. However, I lost interest by Chapter 9. The second half of the book seems to be predictable and the author also, kind of repeats himself throughout the book. I wouldn't read it again, but I will definitely keeps some of those gems. It's not worth $10, but at least you'll get a good laugh.

Great book! Great read. Great coaster. Recommended for all guys. Entertaining, funny, and a common sense approach to discussions regarding guys stuff, should we or shouldn't we, and the lovely ladies in our lives. Goes great with a tall 312 beer from Goose Island.

A very entertaining book with a great deal of insight! Loved it! I couldn't put it down. Once you start you'll want to keep reading. Well worth it! Get it today!

This book is totally hilarious and very true. Belushi writes to men about relationships and his advice about them. It shows the funny side and the serious side of this. A really great book and deserves more than five stars.

such a great book. for any guy

Ich habe das Audiobook zufällig gefunden bei der Suche nach den DVDs der Serie die manchmal bei RTL 2 läuft. Es ist umwerfend komisch seine originale Stimme zu hören, wie er von seinem Leben und seinen Erfahrungen erzählt. Natürlich geht es auch um Liebe und Sex, aber nie unter der Gürtellinie. Für Fans und die es noch werden wollen...... Man sollte allerdings keine grösseren Probleme mit dem Verstehen von Amerikanischem Englisch haben. Die Kapitel werden teilweise von Musik der Sacred Hearts Band begleitet. Wenn man allerdings vom MP3 Player hört und das in aller Oeffentlichkeit, wird man vielleicht bei öfterem lauten Lachen etwas komisch angesehen werden........

This book is fantastic so funny and true. Jim Belushi is so honest about him self and life I thought a must read for any teenager or struggling man .he really does have some very good points I'm going to give it my son after I've finished it .who ever stevie b is ,he is a living legend

I am a fan of James Belushi - love his sitcom "All About Jim" so his book appealed to me. Love his "Blue Collar" sense of humor, at times he had me laughing out loud. James is a talented man, good actor, musician and now author. When's part 2 Jim?

It's simply funny... Typical from Jim Belushi and family i can said. Good advice even when just apply to some regions in the states (definitely not all to Europe) but still pretty funny.I think is better in Audio Book as in paper. I bet you that...!!I am happy that i bought it. (first audio book)
