Who ever said that all self-help is BS? Buddhism (the philosophy, not the religion) may not typically be referred to as self-help, but that's ultimately what it is, just to use one example of something already mentioned in this thread. Or, a book focusing on how to effectively set and maintain goals: good self-help.
As for needing to read the book...the movie is written and produced by the author of the book. I see no reason not to assume it's a fair representation.
