Pros & Cons
Pros
The approach lives on through a very active blog site and many stc devotees around the world. It’s reassuring having a formula to work off of, not going in this totally blind and deaf to the craft.
Save the cat has deepened my understanding of the craft. Now, they crackle! This book is worth the time. Chances are, you'll revisit it over and and over again.
If you are a beginner this is a must have. No other book is a better intro into the craft. The book is extremely detailed, which makes it something of a cookbook.
Cons
This book explains the basics, it's pretty much screenwriting for dummies. It is very distracting. If you have a creative bone in your body, and want to showcase anything original, then this book is not for you.
