    I expected more from this book. Although Mamet is talented the work is not as helpful as it should be.

  2. Sufiyan Adam –

    A solid introduction to directing. I found the chapter on working with actors particularly useful. Highly recommend it.

  3. Chahat –

    Mamet’s direct style is refreshing. The book is packed with practical advice. I found some of the examples slightly dated, but I would still recommend.

  4. Sabhyata Yadava –

    I had mixed feelings. Some parts were brilliant, others were vague. It requires multiple readings to fully grasp.

    Fantastic resource! ‘On Directing Film’ is a game-changer. It gave me the confidence to take on new projects.

    Helpful but short. Offers a good overview of directing principles. I wanted more detail on specific techniques.

    Overrated. While Mamet is a great writer, this book didn’t resonate with me. I found it a bit pretentious at times.

    A must-have for any director. Mamet’s voice is clear and authoritative. This book will change the way you approach filmmaking.

    Not bad, but it felt rushed. Could have benefited from more examples and case studies. Some points felt incomplete.

  10. Saurabh Kumar –

    Informative and concise. ‘On Directing Film’ provides a solid foundation. A must-read, though a bit theoretical at times.

    Five stars! This book is a goldmine for aspiring directors. Mamet’s wisdom shines through every page. Highly recommend!

  12. Hardik Gour –

    Disappointed. I was expecting more practical guidance. It’s more philosophical than practical. The insights are very limited.

    Excellent! Mamet demystifies the directing process. This book inspired me to pursue my filmmaking dreams. A true gem!

    Good starting point for beginners. Experienced directors might not find much new information. Still, a worthwhile read.

    Incredible book! David Mamet’s insights are spot on. It is concise, and inspiring. A must for filmmakers.

  18. Sahil Patel –

    A quick and insightful read. It’s not exhaustive, but it provides valuable food for thought. Worth the investment.

    This is an excellent book. It offers invaluable insights into the art of filmmaking. I highly recommend it.

    A decent read, but I expected more depth from such a renowned author. Some insights were valuable, but overall, a bit underwhelming.
