0	Corny Romano...	When it comes to SNL inspired films, you kind of have to walk in expecting them to be rather corny. I did that, but then again, there are a slew of SNL spin-off films that have carried their own weight or at least proved to be entertaining. The problem I have with `Corky Romano' is that it just plain isn't funny; at all. The premise is promising, in the vein of comedies of this nature, but it just doesn't deliver the goods as I had hoped it would. I've never been a huge fan of Chris Kattan. His breed of funny just doesn't work as well on him as it does on SNL castmate Will Ferrell. Kattan tries too hard, and it shows. Alas, some will like this and that is cool, but this comedy was NOT my cup of tea. You'd be hard-pressed to find a gag or joke that lands just right; most of them flutter awkwardly to the floor. You can skip this one and rest easy knowing you didn't miss anything.	negative
0	Does Plagarism Count when American Movies Copy Foreign Films?	How is it that an American film director, who's wins a "Best Director" Oscar for a film that he Plagarized from a Hong Kong film get so much credit as being "Great" and a "Master" ???? I'm sure that when he won the Oscar, he wanted to make it sound like this film was an original piece of work. He didn't even mention that he COPIED THE ENTIRE IDEA from "Infernal Affairs" during his acceptance speech.I guess that American critics would call this as a "remake", but the entire idea of the movie was from Hong Kong. However, if a foreign film company were to copy an American film idea, there would be law suits that the foreign company has plagarized an American idea. Where's the justice? What ever happened to the rights of others? Is there some kind of double standard?	negative
0	Stinky!	I was happy with this blender, but now it makes a stench and heats up when I try to use it. Something must be wrong with the motor. It's not as if it's over-worked...I've probably used it about a dozen times.	negative
1	The Spirit World	Always believed there was somewhere we went when we left here but before Heaven. This just proves it! Great book!	positive
0	Not useful for any level of Ballet	This frustrating video often zooms in on Ilona's upper body while she is instructing so it makes it futile to follow along. Perhaps, it's not Ilona's fault but this is definitely the worst quality video made to date to my knowledge. Save your money--anything's better than this lemon.	negative
1	If you liked Ender's Game, you should read this book.	Most of the "Battletech" novels were pretty bad; I've sold off most of my collection on ebay, but this trilogy I keep in my collection.The trilogy chronicles the life of the genetically engineered warrior Aidan from his earliest childhood up until the time of his death. Born into the eugenically engineered elite of his society, Aidan comes to reject many of the precepts his fellows embrace, leading him into a life of constant intellectual, emotional, and military conflict, both with his clan's enemies and with many of his fellows.Unlike a lot of the trash turned out by the sci-fi serial lines, the Jade Phoenix Trilogy and stands up well as a good piece of literature on it's own merits. The first novel, a story about the training of the child-warrior Aidan, reminded me of "Ender's Game."	positive
1	Good but lacked variety	I liked the hodgepodge but I was disappointed because both bags were the same and lacked variety. I got some gumdrop disk and gummy fish and a bunch of pink and yellow jelly beans which i didn't care much for.	positive
1	Very useful product	Very easy to fit and take off. No ploblems with them at all. They do not block the light as far as I can tell.	positive
0	JUICES	This book is not for me is for someone who has a juicer and time to make them might be good for someone else	negative
0	Errors	Book is full of many, many errors. Not worth your time. I didn't like Pre-test, either, as it seemed too detailed. Surgical Recall is GREAT but it contains no questions. Case Files is also useful. I have yet to find a useful surgery question book.	negative
1	rarely known ole disney classic...	... good story/adventures & special f/x. some adventures: cool "earthquake slide away", w/ lg. bird, tidal wave, waterspout-2nd best scene on this list next to the earthquake scene. not reviewing treasureisland-wasn that interested, so far.	positive
0	Not a book many women would enjoy....	I had high hopes for this book, but the more I read it the less I liked it. The characters were just dopey, and not very likeable. The male protagonist was self-absorbed and shallow that he treated the women in his life in a shoddy way. I just couldn't get attached to anyone in the book, or care about what happened. I would't recommend it.	negative
0	poorly written	This book makes Grisham look like he deserves a Pulitzer. The story kept me reading (I did finish the book) but it was not particularly credible. However, the writing was truly awful and the dialogue stilted and trite. There's lots of better stuff to read out there.	negative
1	Wonderful book that is hard to put down!	Not only could our son (age 8) not put this book down, but we loved it too! Highly recommend for ages 8 to adult! :-)	positive
1	Transformative	This book is the most lucid argument for individual freedoms that I have read in the longest while. McWilliams made a forceful argument, over 700 pages, without losing me for even one of them. I would compare his performance with that of Bastiat and Spooner for the sheer adroitness with which he demolishes paternalism. I found myself laughing aloud on the train often.This book has so much novelty, humor, and generosity, that it is difficult not be completely engaged while reading it. For an avowed libertarian, it strengthens conviction, and provides a wider range of arguments for freedom. For those who have never encountered radical individualism or libertarian thought, it can be transformative.Other reviewers have commented on how the issues in the book touched Peter McWilliams in the most personal of ways. I would point out that McWilliams maintains his good cheer throughout. His courage makes this work all the more poignant.	positive
0	Its no love story	Its an alright series, but it certainly isnt a love story, and I am a little disapointed in the drama. I had thought it would be more like the Monarch of the Glenn. Its not.	negative
0	Inaccurate - resolution of 4 lbs!!!	What a great scale, I thought, until after a few days I noticed that my weight was either 150.4lbs or 153.6lbs. Please, give me something in between! But no, alas, it can't. I even tried carrying small weights onto the scale with me to, but no joy. Avoid like the plague, especially if you're into weight management.	negative
1	Sweet suite music	Mike Rowland's music is so much better when performed by the Sylvan Strings (with Kate Williams at piano) than when rendered by synthesizer. There's no comparison. This music absolutely requires the woody, plaintive depth of violins to keep it from turning to acoustical pancake syrup.Try and see. Listen to the Silver Wings samples, then listen to the Silver Wings Suite samples.	positive
0	Good on formatting, fair on operations	I bought this book mostly because I wanted to learn Excel quickly. The book covers formatting extensively but there is very little on how to make your spreadsheet work, on how to actually get the program to make calculations. I wanted to do crosstablulatons, which is handled differently than in earlier versions of Excel. The term wasn't even mentioned in the book. Now they use pivot tables, which were not described adequately. There are few books out there about the new version. This one was frustrating.	negative
0	Stopped working after just 4 months	It worked well initially, but then just gave out after a few months. We only ran it a few days a week and always emptied it when full. I was very disappointed and would not recommend this to anyone. If for some reason you do decide to buy it, make sure you keep all the packaging and receipt so you can return it ! (which I failed to do)	negative
1	Great	This has been a great reference book as I've been teaching a class on the different denominations. I'd highly recommend!	positive
1	MUSIC THAT ENERGIZES YOUR MIND	Randy Klein has the ability to play music that is absolutely beautiful. A completely original pianist. The music touches your soul and your mind. I was doing some mundane chore around my home when I put on this wonderful CD. It made the mundane event turn into a time when I could concentrate on one thing at a time and appreciate what it was I was doing. This CD has great power.	positive
1	great editing, choice of players	I watched this in a packed theater on a Tuesday night in the Haight (SF) before the DVD came out. It's great. I am a bit of a Scrabble junkie (played a few tournaments but not seriously) but have recommended it to others who aren't so into the game who still enjoyed the movie.Marlon is a fascinating character. The prudish, self-righteous comments about him in other reviews are completely off target. The contrast between him and Tai Chi-doing / meditating Joe Edley (who, it turns out, can't perform when he's actually playing on the street rather than in the sterile environment of a tournament) adds so much to the movie.	positive
1	A Christmas Carol	This is BY FAR the best Scrooge running. Very well done...I've been a fan since in came out in the 80's. Great Price too!	positive
1	More More More!!!!	Give us more Josh! I first heard To Where You Are on the radio and couldn't wait to pick up this CD. I just purchased it...and was compelled to post my review! Fantastic! Absolutely the best money I've ever spent. Beautiful music, the most outstanding voice I've heard.. ever! I simply can't wait to hear more from you Josh!	positive
1	Well up to standard	I am Balinese and live in Ubud.As I am involved in tourism, I always keep a close eye on guide books to make sure that they do not give any incorrect information, either generally in respect of Bali, or in particular, in respect of my own restaurant, shops and accommodation in Ubud.I am pleased to say that the text is remarkably accurate - as are the maps - which is not easy in the fast changing world we now live in.The sections on Balinese culture are concise and very helpful to those visiting the island for the first time. Balinese culture is complicated and the visitor will benefit greatly from the explanations in this book.There are also some nice photographs. Recommended.	positive
1	Riveting book that was a nice read and thought-provoking	From the first pages, I found myself drawn into this fascinating history of the federal witness protection program. Some of the tales that WITSEC founder Gerald Shur can tell are amazing - as good as some of the better crime thrillers (proof yet again that fact is stranger than fiction). Some of the stories are terrible, too, but I really enjoyed the fact that the narration comes across in that "just the facts, ma'am" approach that doesn't attempt to skip or gloss over or put a spin on the mistakes and problems that came up. Overall, the book makes a powerful statement on why we have and why we need such a program.	positive
1	Absolutely classic.	Stavesacre is one of the best rock bands on the planet, combining melody, power, and emotion, and excelling in musicianship and lyricism. This is probably one of the best debut albums I've ever heard, ranking just under Weezer's blue album. Taking notes from bands like Quicksand, Far, and Helmet, Stavesacre creates accessible post hardcore rock. However, they perfectly execute the sound that the afforementioned innovators were trying to reach, and it only took them one album to do it! Every song on here is excellent. There's the soaring melody and chill-inducing lyrics of "At The Moment". "Loader" is driving and aggressive, with a great hook to boot. "Stars and Clouds" is a ten minute opus that throws in a little of a prog rock feel to an already diverse album. A highly recommended album for musical innovation, lyrical inspiration, and spiritual reflection.	positive
1	Warranty Extension	Just got the watch and it seems to be working great. I have adjusted the date and time base on the mechanical instructions given. The watch has performed well for the 1st week.I got several compliments on the watch.Only suggestion to Stuhrling is they need to make the emblem in the middle of the watch a decal rather than a stamped letter. Could have made the watch even more impressive.I hope to get several years of use.Warranty card they send you gives an extra year extension if you fill out the review. Not sure how they track it.	positive
0	Great idea poor quality	I purchased a Sunbeam Hot Shot hot water dispenser for use in my office. I thought it would be great for making an occasional cup of tea. It worked for less than 2 months, after which the on / off switch stop working, so it is now in the trash. Also, during the short period while it was functioning, the valve that releases the hot water would, at times, stick causing the Hot Shot to leak. Therefore, I would not recommend this product.	negative
0	Garbage	I ordered these cartridges for my HP 750. They printed fine, once. A few weeks later I tried to print again and they were all clogged. I had to throw them out. There's a reason these are so cheap.	negative
0	Look elsewhere for JDBC Book	This Book does not give a lot of information about JDBC except for the first 7 days , the Rest is going nowhere with bad coding exambles.	negative
0	Not the product inside the box	The image makes it look and sound like an all stainless steel scale, but it is not.Only the top is stainless, the rest is black plastic (not even the grey look in the image).Scale works fine so far, I'm keeping it.Amazon wants me to fill out a second report in order to investigate the complaint.They sent this review request a second time after I informed them of the problem.Amazon is making me do repetitive work and wasting my time.Order it, open it, feel the disappointment, move on.	negative
1	First Electric Shaver	This was the first time I have owned an electric shaver. I researched the field pretty well and read various reviews. Because I take blood thinners I was suggested that I go from blade shaving to electric shavers.I am very pleased with the Norelco arcitec shaver. I had no problem with adjustment and had no skin irritation at all. The shave is almost as close as a blade shave. The battery has lasted through about six shaves so far and doesn't seem to be losing power. It cleans up easily under the tap. I'm very happy I made the decision to go with this product.UPDATE: I had to return the product as after about two weeks my skin started to get very irritated, especially if I tried to get a close shave. For people who use electric razors regularly they probably would not have this problem.	positive
1	Great to protect microphone set	I purchased the 1120 case to hold a small wireless microphone set.The box has been dropped, showered, opened and closed without a problem.Initially the latches are a bit stiff, however are easier to operate over time. This is not to say they are getting worn down though, it still seals extremely well.Make sure to allow for a bit of extra room around whatever item you are looking to protect, as the purpose of the foam inside is to help protect it from shock. You want a bit of "padding" around your items.Besides protecting my gear, it also looks pretty sharp as well.	positive
0	What a complete waste of money	Not the nicest thing to say, but I found this book is acompletely waste of both money and reading effort. After reading Ms Aftels first book on natural perfumery, I had expected something similar and was deeply dissapointed. This is one tiny book, but so is Mindy Greens book "Natural Perfumes" and that one is surely worth every dime. The size of the fonts are too large = very little text on each page and the sad fact is, that it contains absolutely nothing new, that wasn't covered in Ms Aftels first book. Some of the pictures are beautiful, but so are the ones in other books on perfumery. The very few formulas that is offered are simple beyond simpleness and I believe that even beginner at the art of NP could come up with more inovative ones.My advice is - don't buy this book! If you is interested in natural perfumery, there are quite few books on this topic, that offers more knowledge and inspiration than this one.	negative
0	No difference at all	I've been using this for awhile now and gave it a chance. My eyes look as though I've never used anything at all. I would not recommend this product.	negative
1	A must have too listen too!!!	these guys are some of the most talented artists i've honestly heard in a long time. i bought their cd awhile ago and its just unbelieveable i cant wait to their follow up because they put so much feeling raw emoation and hard hitting beats into each of their songs, if you need a cd you can realte some of ur problems to then this cd is a must! please support these guys they deserve every bit of support they get!	positive
1	Enjoyable	It is like a sophisticated (well written) Romance Novel. Great escape reading. The books in this series are long, but I like long books.	positive
1	quite a surprise!	This book was very unique and had a surprising end! I would definitely recommend this book. I love Kristen Hannah's books!	positive
0	Nintendo Remote Control Yoshi Kart-Large..the Lemon	The car stopped working after 10 minutes running time!!! The motor started smelling like it was on fire!!! My daughter was very disappointed about her Christmas toy. Made me feel really bad for her. I guess the motor wasn't able to handle such a big car. So if you think you want to get one of these cars think again. Now we got a large item that will just sit somewhere..not something fun to play with. Not a good buying experience. Should have not left a feedback until after christmas. I went on blind faith that the car was going to run that was a mistake on my part. I really hate that I was the one to get the lemon!!! This toy is not Recommended!!!!	negative
0	Sequel Suggestion	I think the next installment penned by Jason Segel should be the virtues of the collective, and praise for a muppet "Dear Leader"No seriously, the villain of the movie should have been the FCC for destroying childrens programing. I'm glad I grew up when you could enjoy Saturday programing like a kid should, relatively devoid of educational value. If Laugh Olympics had a polictical point of view it was lost on me. Or Pinelope Pit Stop had a feminist agenda (it might have, I was just a kid) I didn't know it.Of course the fact I don't enjoy musicals like I did when I was a kid could be another of the reasons I didn't get past the first 23 minutes. The lyrics and choreography where terrible.(Queue maniacal laughter) Mwhaa hahahaha.	negative
1	Not exactly what I expected.	The book is nice and large and has lots of glossy, colorful illustrations. My only concern has been some of the content. My wife and I are both somewhat reserved and some of the nursery rhymes mention the slaughtering of animals and homosexuality, which we were not prepared for. We know our children will be exposed to the real world soon enough, and we ultimately want them to make their own decisions, I'm just not sure some of the content is appropriate for small children.	positive
0	Difficult transition from Quicken for Windows	It is very difficult to convert a Windows Quicken file to a Mac version. One must manually change account and category names to no more than 15 characters in length. No automatic utility is provided to do this. So a considerable time investment is required to convert your files to Mac use. Don't expect Quicken to work like MS Word or other programs that can read files written on Mac and PC versions. I plan to keep my old PC and run the Windows version until the Mac version is cleaned up.	negative
0	Disappointed	I was so disappointed when I got the Sex and the City complete series for Christmas. There were multiple episodes that would skip and some would not play at all. I thought maybe it was my dvd player, but I tried another one and it was the same thing. I even tried it on my computer, but that did not help. I thought maybe it was a fluke and I sent it back and got a new one, but I still had the same problems. I love watching this series and it makes me sad that I can't watch every episode without it freezing or skipping :(	negative
0	What a turd!	Batteries really? How stupid are the people at Fischer Price? It's going to cost me a fortune to run this thing. Also, huge flaw ... The joystick doesn't even work. Never did. We can't maneuver through the game whatsoever. Also, the graphics are straight from the atari 2600 I used as a kid. Just terrible! I highly recommend passing on this gift. Great idea for a toy. Horrible execution! Bunch of idiots at FP!	negative
0	Too long for curves and slopes	Although the cars are beautiful and no doubt they must be very durable, they are too long to handle well curves and slopes. I would recommend to buy shorter cars, because the more flexible the train is, the better it goes in curves and slopes.	negative
0	Extremely poor: Author is busy defending himself	Everyone, avoid buying this book. There are many other books out there.As you can see on this page, one of the authors of this book tried to justify having made errors by saying other books have errors too. He also openly admitted having made contextual errors (which is extremely embarrassing) after being pointed out by one of his customers, but the author blasted him away and made no apology about selling incorrect data due to his ignorance and stupidity.	negative
1	XL fit my huge head	I wear a 17 3/4" hat and the XL fit my head perfectly. This helmet is strong and not bulky like some other helmets I have tried. I use it for bike riding and it keep my head relatively cool.	positive
1	Another Great from Alexander	Lloyd Alexander is probably the greatest children's author living today. Gypsy Rizka is another great book by the master. Alexander has always brought strong heroines to children's lit. Rizka is yet another great to add to the list: Eilonwy from The Prydain Chronicles, Mickle from the Westmark Trilogy, Isabel from The Marvelous Misadventures of Sebastian, and Vesper Holly from her own books (there are also a few more which I haven't gotten to yet). This novel, besides its excellent characters, has a lot of humor. Alexander displays his unbelieveable imagination with the unusual methods Rizka utilizes to get out of trouble. Nobody mixes high adventure with humor as well as Alexander. The prose in this novel is unbelievably polished also. Gypsy Rizka doesn't have as much depth as some of Alexander's other novels, but there are not very many childrens books that can entertain like this one can. Overall, Gypsy Rizka is an amazing novel.	positive
0	This Is Not Yoga	I am so glad that I was able to borrow this from the library instead of buying it. If I had purchased it thinking it was a yoga DVD then I would have returned it. If you use this as a normal workout that has some yoga concepts then you'll be okay, but if you are expecting a yoga workout you will be extremely disappointed. You cannot follow the workout without looking at the screen, and the instructor's constant and inane chatter would become really old after the second or third time. I understand why the DVD has the option to do the workout with just music, but that would make you even more dependent on watching the screen. Thumbs down on this one.	negative
0	Stopped working after the second use	I recently purchased the item, used it twice without a problem on the third use the hole puncher broke! I would not recommend this product to anybody .	negative
1	I wish this cd got more appreciation	I really wish this cd had gotten the appreciation it deserved. Her cover of Mandolin Rain is exquisite and the River and the Highway, as well as Tequila Mockingbird are superb as well. I thought Betty Got A Bass Boat to be completely out of place, and is why I'm not giving the cd five stars. That said, Pam's voice shines on this album and it is well worth her talent and anyone's time to check out.	positive
1	Great Cable Great Price	I purchase a used moxi, and it didn't come with a cable, this cable was a perfect replacement, and was half the price of the local radio shack.	positive
0	Don't buy this WITH Garmin Nuvi 360	The description of Garmin Nuvi 360 may not tell you, but it includes the car charger, as well as the UBS cable, and the wall-outlet charger. It also includes the mount for installing the Garmin in the car. Do not purchase what you don't need. Amazon will make you pay the postage to return it even though their description didn't tell you what was included in purchasing the Garmin.	negative
0	What You're Looking For Is NOT Here!	I was so excited to get this CD as a gift. What a disappointment to have neither of the Samantha Mathis songs on it, especially "Big Bar Hair" (what a fun song) and "Maybe God's a Woman Too." Returned it without even opening the CD, as I mainly wanted those two songs! Guess I'll have to keep rewinding the videotape to hear them. Bummer....	negative
1	Good product, worked easily.	Easily connected to the wireless link with the software. If you want a stronger link (long distance between router) would recommend getting an additional antenna.	positive
1	Can't Put It Down!	This is a moving story that made me laugh and cry. I LOVED it! "From Out of Red Hook" is definitely a fast moving novel that you simply can't put down. I HIGHLY recommend it!	positive
0	Not a true fit	Although this is the item the manufacturer, it was not the same gear shape as the original and made the mixer extremely LOUND. The Whine make it impossiple to use without ear protection. I do NOT recommend buying this gear.	negative
1	Destinations journal	I bought this journal as a gift for a traveling companion. She has never been outside of the United States before--and got a passport for the first time. I thought it would be a great gift for a first-time traveler to record her adventures.	positive
1	Great New talent	Los Lonely boys are one of the best new acts out to come out. Not since los lobos has a Latino group made such a great impact on rock and roll. They have their own unique sound, and I believe have a great future ahead of them I would defintely buy their next album, and will see them in concert some day when they get the chance to be in L.A.	positive
0	not that great	this product is alright in material but the thing to take note is its terrible odor when you first open it and the odor sticks for a very long time. Don't get if you can't tolerate smelly things. It's barely tolerable. With yoga in certain positions you are close to the mat and I had to smell it. So I end up throwing it out.	negative
1	Hilarious CD!	This CD is great! If you don't want to spend a lot of money on the box set, get this instead. Many of the same tracks are here. Lots of great performers: Bill Murray, Christopher Guest, John Belushi, Brian Doyle-Murray, Chevy Chase, Brian McConnachie, Harold Ramis, Joe Flaherty, Gilda Radner. VERY FUNNY!	positive
1	Beautifully Drawn	I found this book to be beautifully rendered with with many drawings of examples face types, features and body language gestures that were clear and easy to understand. But the descriptions were very general and didn't cover all of the variations that exist in reality. (I suppose one is supposed to take one of the authors face reading classes for more info. listed in the back of the book.) Still, it was a facinating read, and a fun topic to try among friends.	positive
0	Problems with the first chapter...	Ok, I haven't read this book. I've only looked at some of the content online.I have a lot of respect for Mr. Nye. He has done an excellent job making science entertaining. So, I was surprised that in the first chapter where he explains how airplanes fly, he uses the Bernoulli principle as the primary explaination. There are a lot of subtleties in how airplanes fly and Bernoulli is certainly one of them - but the primary explanation has more to do with Newton than Bernoulli. [...]I'm particularly surprised that Mr. Nye would use this simplistic (and mostly wrong) explanation as he is an ex-Boeing engineer and should know better! If this chapter is representative of the rest of the book, then I'm disinclined to purchase or recommend it.	negative
1	Once more enter the darkness and meet Bergman.	"From the life of Marionettes" is a dark tale told by its multiple and unreliable characters. The plot begins with a shocking event through which the main character is introduced, where the audience is forced to judge him by the face value. What comes after is one of the most beautiful manifestations of Bergmanian prophecies: liberal, bitter, and extremely dark. This is a psychological hallucination, a bizzare experience in human relationship. Watch and levitate.	positive
1	From My Inside	I'm 37 and have seen Alice several times in concert and In person.(he paid my cousins house off for him about 8 years ago) Some of you might remember the event. It took place in Riverside, CA. Anyway thats a whole other story. I think the first time I heard this album (8 track) was when I was in sixth or seventh grade.( might have been even before that) That was the album that turned me on to Alice. I think the best album he has put out. The lyricks are pure Alice as only Alice can do. Very few people even know, let a lone, have ever heard of it. I'm not sure why, I've heard different stories. It really doesn't matter. however It Is a shame. As much as I love welcome to my nightmare and all his other "greats" they don't come close to this album. If you love Alice and even If you don't, After you here this album and the lyricks, you're sure to become a "Cooper" fan.Now I want to see If I can find anything on the event when Alice paid my cousins house off.Thanks for listening,Pamiam	positive
1	Tear-Jerker	This book was an amazing piece. I read the whole thing in a couple days. I just couldn't stop until I got to the end. It brought tears to my eyes! I would recommend this tear-jerker to anyone who has a strong stomach! (Very graphic!)	positive
0	Not much fun.	I'll keep it short. This game is not much fun. Not entertaining, not exciting, doesn't really simulate a music instrument or beat pad. I have only tried it 4 or 5 times, but it's not pick up and "create" play so don't expect that. I was hoping it would be like "MTV Music Creator" on the Playstation 1 and 2, but no such luck.Try these games for more entertainment on your PSP: DJ Max Portable (soone to be released in the USA, but available now on import sites from Asia.)	negative
0	Don't Believe the Hype!	I bought this CD believing the hype that it was a return to there roots. After listening to this, I'm not sure which roots they're talking about. This is a very weak effort. Not only for Megadeth, but overall. Having been a big Megadeth fan, particularly of the older material, I was starting to get bored with their work and was anticipating this supposed return to the "older" Megadeth. Didn't happen. From the sounds of this CD, Megadeth may be getting bored too. Buy "Peace Sells" or "Rust in Peace," not this.	negative
0	Don't buy it.	This is perhaps the worst book on programming I have ever read. I am an advanced autolisp programmer hoping to learn Visual Basic for Autocad and this book claimed to be for me. Unfortunately it wastes its ink on theory and large print than just giving a lot of useful programming examples - which is the best way to learn programming in my opinion.	negative
1	Very enjoyable read	Ok, it is not groundbreaking literature, so I can't give it 5 stars, but it was one of those books that grabs your attention and you catch yourself reading late into the night, promising time and time again to go just one more chapter. Solid character development, unique twists on a theme, and a first rate idea all in all. I picked mine up with some other paperback mysteries to pass the time on some long plane rides, but found that I couldn't wait for the return flight, I just had to see how it ended. I was enveloped in the story, and isn't that why we read books like this?	positive
1	English DVD truncates scenes	The film No Regret is wonderful. Truly a gem. And for all those who whine about the twist toward the end, it helps if you understand Korean, Korean class hierarchies, and the notion of han. More than anything, make it through to the very touching (pun so not intended, but whatev) final scenes. It'll be rewarding.This DVD version released by here!, unfortunately, cuts a couple scenes short. And I'll be blunt. The scenes truncated are the sex scenes, and though some might regard them purely gratuitous, the two scenes that are cut reveal much about the characters' changing relationship. I find it highly ironic that here! - seemingly a distributor primarily of gay films - of all distributors would delete the gay sex. Be proud.	positive
0	This was soooo Bad!	After seeing the trailer for this film, I really wanted to see it. Now, after having seen it, I'm sorry I did. It isn't funny at all and both of the main characters, Gwen and Eddie, are boring and annoying. In addition to this, it's pretty unbelievable to see Julia Roberts 60 lbs. overweight, frumpy and mousy. The worst part, however, were the jokes leveled at Gwen's Spanish lover. The only thing he, or anyone else, was interested in was his sexual prowess and size. I find this stereotypical and racist. Generally, I enjoy all of the actors that were in this film, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment and I don't recommend it at all.	negative
1	Outstanding Receiver	Terrific receiver for the price. I use this receiver with my home TV and DVD. One note: no digital inputs--all analog.	positive
1	Exactly what I wanted	So far so good. Previous people mentioned low sound and rusting but the sound's great and it's completely water proof. Ours gets soaked every day and it's in great shape. I'm very happy with my purchase and highly recommend it. An added bonus is the tuner works really well. It picks up radio stations much better than anything else in the house. Ours goes from bath to kitchen back to the bath.	positive
0	Horribly edited	This is NOT a very good book. It is very basic, and at that, it can't get it right. The book is very poorly edited, which causes a lot of confusion.	negative
0	great price, not so great performance	After having this battery for 6 months now, I have to agree with those who have said to buy the genuine canon battery. It worked great for the first few months but now the battery is maybe good for 15 minutes of usage (taking about 20 pictures and reviewing them). I've used replacement batteries for many of my electronics but this one is definitely a pass.	negative

0	Disappointing book	I was very anxious to receive this book as it had been very highly rated. I never got past the discipline portion. The Monks recommend that when a dog misbehaves, you should hit him under the chin........and if he doesn't "yelp" you didn't hit him hard enough. THIS IS TRAINING????????? I was looking for a training book on positive reinforcement, not beating and abusing a dog to train him. Now I'm back at Amazon looking for a better training book.	negative
1	Excellent Memoir, great writing	This is one of my favorite memoirs, both for its difficult subject matter and the quality of writing. I couldn't stop reading this book and have since sought out other titles by the author.From the opening chapter you've drawn into the day-to-day obsession of addiction which, in the case of this author, is insidious despite its somewhat mundane appearance. Once she's brought you to the heart of addiction its easy to see how such a creeping and at first seemingly harmless relationship to alcohol can quickly go from social aid to problem crutch to full-blown need.In one of the most thought-provoking parts of the book she compares drinking, or any sort of addiction really, with exaggerated procrastination - an interesting take on addiction that still has me thinking.A must-read.	positive

0	If you plan to use this with a laptop, read this.	I purchased this yesterday and returned it today. I wanted to use this with my Thinkpad. I could not load the driver and application to use the additional features (tilt wheel) because it conflicts with the Thinkpad touchpad driver. On Microsoft support site, it states the fact that it conflicts with some popular touchpads. I was disappointed that Microsoft forgot to print that on the outside of the box and wasted my time. Also, what is the deal with this scroll wheel? It is sticky and hard to move. I replaced it with a Logitech MX700, plugged it in, loaded the driver and bingo... It is perfect!	negative
1	Well	Suddenly critics are believeable in your opinion? Well, your beloved Sills' caricatures of an Aida, Michaela, Carmen (!), Thais and late screeching of belcanto (In the late years) were "lambasted" too. So what? What about Sills' MANNERED way of rewriting every line the composer wrote? Her Anna Bolena is filled with such "mannerisms", as is her Lucia. Some very severe critics called Sills' glassy voice FAKE, ugly, sour, screechy and many more harsh words. So what? I still love Sills. How about the fact that Sills' ornaments were as tacky as H*** but still fascinating to listen to? Give Fleming a chance, or if not, stop abusing her. That should even be below YOUR niveau!	positive
0	R for Really, Really bad	How in the world this movie got nominated for Golden Globes and Academy Awards is beyond my understanding. I gave it one star because there was no other choice. It's a prime example of the trash that Hollywood ships out to an unsuspecting public. The problem is that "big-name" stars are used to market smut and nudity and influence young adults into believing that hurting people, lying, being promiscuous and fearful of commitment is okay. It isn't. It's bad, really, really, bad.......and it's sad that some stars that I admired even agreed to star in it. Please don't waste your money and time on this film. Instead, you might want to investigate some of the really good independent films which are out...."Dear Frankie", for example, which recently was picked as #1 of the top ten movies of the year by the Associated Press Film Critic. Spend your money on those and lobby for decent entertaining movies, and not necessarily the movies out of Hollywood.	negative
0	Not all that great	Sorry, but I don't like this album too much. 4 Out of 11 tracks (2,6,7,10)are quite good, but the rest are duds. However, I don't think that Mr. Peaston's singing is to blame, but the lousy material he has to work with. His previous album, Introducing David Peaston is an excellent recording. It demonstrates that if Mr. Peaston only had half the talent he does, he could more than hold his own against artists like Brian McKnight, Luther Vandross, or Babyface. Maybe if he started writing more like the aforementioned artists, he could have done more in his singing career. Mr. Peaston has only co-written a total of two songs between these two albums, and I think these are some of the better songs on which they appear. Who knows? Maybe he'll surprise us with something new. We can only hope.	negative

0	Very disappointing	This book is a story about about Scleroderma and the people who had it. If you want to read about the treatment, simply go to the article written in the Lancet. Do not waste your money on this book thinking it will give you steps to doing treatment. It rehashes all the HORRIBLE things Scleroderma does to the body through the eyes of the people who had it and their family members. Yes, it talks about this "miracle" therapy, but this book was a waste of my time and money. Simply read about the treatment in the Lancet article which I am sure you can do for free.	negative

The cable is extremely fragile with no structural reinforcement at all. this antenna will break if you move it from location to location. best thing to do is get one for home and each vehicle because any handling of the cable will cause breakage over time. for thirty dollars you are already half way to a new receiver, makes no sense.	negative
1	Simply hilarious	This is the best standup comedy I have ever seen, bar none!These guys are simply the best! I wish they had some more deleted scenes, or special material. Example: the 'only a cookie' joke or 'iran's government is stoned' jokes have costumed enactments from they were done on comedy central. This would have been a nice addition to the hilarious comedy already on DVD	positive
1	The BEST introduction to blues harp	Delighted with my progress after starting out with Jon Gindick's 'Harmonica Americana', I ordered 'Country & Blues Harmonica For The Absolute Beginner' video from Amazon, and surprised myself at the ease with which I am FINALLY wailing out a blues riff or two. The recording quality isn't great, but the quality of the instruction is THE BEST. Great fun, and highly recommended.	positive
0	Interesting... but disappointing	As a fan of the Smiths, I couldn't resist buying this tribute. Some of the songs are interesting, but I have to say that most are not worth listening. My wife who is even a bigger Smiths fan couldn't even sit through most of the songs! Well, we are just disappointed with this album.	negative
0	Book not recommended, professes false information.	I have recieved notification about this book from a Muslim friend of mine. [...] It appears to be an attempt to corrupt the beliefs of what Muslims actually believe.I have read this book professes false statements customely altered towards Christian beliefs. Such a book seems to be published as a slandering tool rather than a helpful source.There are publications of the Quran and Hadiths which are valid and are translated to English. Personally, I have read and own a copy translated by Yusaf Ali. There are other translations of the Quran by translators Pickthal (i believe translated to French, then English) and Shakir. [...]As a non-Muslim myself, I would recommend not reading "The True Furqan" because of the deceptive and manipulative context it was created under. As can be seen, this book is causing frustration and anger. Perhaps someone will make a petition against it.	negative
1	Entertaining	I found this book entertaining, and somewhat useful. It's full of fun little facts, but a lot of common sense information. As far as being helpful, it would be so only for a novice.

For detailed care of snakes, I fully recommend anything published by Advanced Vivarium Systems.	positive

Corny Romano...

When it comes to SNL inspired films, you kind of have to walk in expecting them to be rather corny. I did that, but then again, there are a slew of SNL spin-off films that have carried their own weight or at least proved to be entertaining. The problem I have with `Corky Romano' is that it just plain isn't funny; at all. The premise is promising, in the vein of comedies of this nature, but it just doesn't deliver the goods as I had hoped it would. I've never been a huge fan of Chris Kattan. His breed of funny just doesn't work as well on him as it does on SNL castmate Will Ferrell. Kattan tries too hard, and it shows. Alas, some will like this and that is cool, but this comedy was NOT my cup of tea. You'd be hard-pressed to find a gag or joke that lands just right; most of them flutter awkwardly to the floor. You can skip this one and rest easy knowing you didn't miss anything.

Does Plagarism Count when American Movies Copy Foreign Films?

How is it that an American film director, who's wins a "Best Director" Oscar for a film that he Plagarized from a Hong Kong film get so much credit as being "Great" and a "Master" ???? I'm sure that when he won the Oscar, he wanted to make it sound like this film was an original piece of work. He didn't even mention that he COPIED THE ENTIRE IDEA from "Infernal Affairs" during his acceptance speech.I guess that American critics would call this as a "remake", but the entire idea of the movie was from Hong Kong. However, if a foreign film company were to copy an American film idea, there would be law suits that the foreign company has plagarized an American idea. Where's the justice? What ever happened to the rights of others? Is there some kind of double standard?

This frustrating video often zooms in on Ilona's upper body while she is instructing so it makes it futile to follow along. Perhaps, it's not Ilona's fault but this is definitely the worst quality video made to date to my knowledge. Save your money--anything's better than this lemon.

If you liked Ender's Game, you should read this book.

Most of the "Battletech" novels were pretty bad; I've sold off most of my collection on ebay, but this trilogy I keep in my collection.The trilogy chronicles the life of the genetically engineered warrior Aidan from his earliest childhood up until the time of his death. Born into the eugenically engineered elite of his society, Aidan comes to reject many of the precepts his fellows embrace, leading him into a life of constant intellectual, emotional, and military conflict, both with his clan's enemies and with many of his fellows.Unlike a lot of the trash turned out by the sci-fi serial lines, the Jade Phoenix Trilogy and stands up well as a good piece of literature on it's own merits. The first novel, a story about the training of the child-warrior Aidan, reminded me of "Ender's Game."

Not a book many women would enjoy....

I had high hopes for this book, but the more I read it the less I liked it. The characters were just dopey, and not very likeable. The male protagonist was self-absorbed and shallow that he treated the women in his life in a shoddy way. I just couldn't get attached to anyone in the book, or care about what happened. I would't recommend it.

Transformative

This book is the most lucid argument for individual freedoms that I have read in the longest while. McWilliams made a forceful argument, over 700 pages, without losing me for even one of them. I would compare his performance with that of Bastiat and Spooner for the sheer adroitness with which he demolishes paternalism. I found myself laughing aloud on the train often.This book has so much novelty, humor, and generosity, that it is difficult not be completely engaged while reading it. For an avowed libertarian, it strengthens conviction, and provides a wider range of arguments for freedom. For those who have never encountered radical individualism or libertarian thought, it can be transformative.Other reviewers have commented on how the issues in the book touched Peter McWilliams in the most personal of ways. I would point out that McWilliams maintains his good cheer throughout. His courage makes this work all the more poignant.

Inaccurate - resolution of 4 lbs!!!

What a great scale, I thought, until after a few days I noticed that my weight was either 150.4lbs or 153.6lbs. Please, give me something in between! But no, alas, it can't. I even tried carrying small weights onto the scale with me to, but no joy. Avoid like the plague, especially if you're into weight management.

Sweet suite music

Mike Rowland's music is so much better when performed by the Sylvan Strings (with Kate Williams at piano) than when rendered by synthesizer. There's no comparison. This music absolutely requires the woody, plaintive depth of violins to keep it from turning to acoustical pancake syrup.Try and see. Listen to the Silver Wings samples, then listen to the Silver Wings Suite samples.

Good on formatting, fair on operations

I bought this book mostly because I wanted to learn Excel quickly. The book covers formatting extensively but there is very little on how to make your spreadsheet work, on how to actually get the program to make calculations. I wanted to do crosstablulatons, which is handled differently than in earlier versions of Excel. The term wasn't even mentioned in the book. Now they use pivot tables, which were not described adequately. There are few books out there about the new version. This one was frustrating.

great editing, choice of players

I watched this in a *packed* theater on a Tuesday night in the Haight (SF) before the DVD came out. It's great. I am a bit of a Scrabble junkie (played a few tournaments but not seriously) but have recommended it to others who aren't so into the game who still enjoyed the movie.Marlon is a fascinating character. The prudish, self-righteous comments about him in other reviews are completely off target. The contrast between him and Tai Chi-doing / meditating Joe Edley (who, it turns out, can't perform when he's actually playing on the street rather than in the sterile environment of a tournament) adds so much to the movie.

I am Balinese and live in Ubud.As I am involved in tourism, I always keep a close eye on guide books to make sure that they do not give any incorrect information, either generally in respect of Bali, or in particular, in respect of my own restaurant, shops and accommodation in Ubud.I am pleased to say that the text is remarkably accurate - as are the maps - which is not easy in the fast changing world we now live in.The sections on Balinese culture are concise and very helpful to those visiting the island for the first time. Balinese culture is complicated and the visitor will benefit greatly from the explanations in this book.There are also some nice photographs. Recommended.

Riveting book that was a nice read and thought-provoking

From the first pages, I found myself drawn into this fascinating history of the federal witness protection program. Some of the tales that WITSEC founder Gerald Shur can tell are amazing - as good as some of the better crime thrillers (proof yet again that fact is stranger than fiction). Some of the stories are terrible, too, but I really enjoyed the fact that the narration comes across in that "just the facts, ma'am" approach that doesn't attempt to skip or gloss over or put a spin on the mistakes and problems that came up. Overall, the book makes a powerful statement on why we have and why we need such a program.

Absolutely classic.

Stavesacre is one of the best rock bands on the planet, combining melody, power, and emotion, and excelling in musicianship and lyricism. This is probably one of the best debut albums I've ever heard, ranking just under Weezer's blue album. Taking notes from bands like Quicksand, Far, and Helmet, Stavesacre creates accessible post hardcore rock. However, they perfectly execute the sound that the afforementioned innovators were trying to reach, and it only took them one album to do it! Every song on here is excellent. There's the soaring melody and chill-inducing lyrics of "At The Moment". "Loader" is driving and aggressive, with a great hook to boot. "Stars and Clouds" is a ten minute opus that throws in a little of a prog rock feel to an already diverse album. A highly recommended album for musical innovation, lyrical inspiration, and spiritual reflection.

Just got the watch and it seems to be working great. I have adjusted the date and time base on the mechanical instructions given. The watch has performed well for the 1st week.I got several compliments on the watch.Only suggestion to Stuhrling is they need to make the emblem in the middle of the watch a decal rather than a stamped letter. Could have made the watch even more impressive.I hope to get several years of use.Warranty card they send you gives an extra year extension if you fill out the review. Not sure how they track it.

Great idea poor quality

I purchased a Sunbeam Hot Shot hot water dispenser for use in my office. I thought it would be great for making an occasional cup of tea. It worked for less than 2 months, after which the on / off switch stop working, so it is now in the trash. Also, during the short period while it was functioning, the valve that releases the hot water would, at times, stick causing the Hot Shot to leak. Therefore, I would not recommend this product.

First Electric Shaver

This was the first time I have owned an electric shaver. I researched the field pretty well and read various reviews. Because I take blood thinners I was suggested that I go from blade shaving to electric shavers.I am very pleased with the Norelco arcitec shaver. I had no problem with adjustment and had no skin irritation at all. The shave is almost as close as a blade shave. The battery has lasted through about six shaves so far and doesn't seem to be losing power. It cleans up easily under the tap. I'm very happy I made the decision to go with this product.UPDATE: I had to return the product as after about two weeks my skin started to get very irritated, especially if I tried to get a close shave. For people who use electric razors regularly they probably would not have this problem.

Great to protect microphone set

I purchased the 1120 case to hold a small wireless microphone set.The box has been dropped, showered, opened and closed without a problem.Initially the latches are a bit stiff, however are easier to operate over time. This is not to say they are getting worn down though, it still seals extremely well.Make sure to allow for a bit of extra room around whatever item you are looking to protect, as the purpose of the foam inside is to help protect it from shock. You want a bit of "padding" around your items.Besides protecting my gear, it also looks pretty sharp as well.

What a complete waste of money

Not the nicest thing to say, but I found this book is acompletely waste of both money and reading effort. After reading Ms Aftels first book on natural perfumery, I had expected something similar and was deeply dissapointed. This is one tiny book, but so is Mindy Greens book "Natural Perfumes" and that one is surely worth every dime. The size of the fonts are too large = very little text on each page and the sad fact is, that it contains absolutely nothing new, that wasn't covered in Ms Aftels first book. Some of the pictures are beautiful, but so are the ones in other books on perfumery. The very few formulas that is offered are simple beyond simpleness and I believe that even beginner at the art of NP could come up with more inovative ones.My advice is - don't buy this book! If you is interested in natural perfumery, there are quite few books on this topic, that offers more knowledge and inspiration than this one.

The car stopped working after 10 minutes running time!!! The motor started smelling like it was on fire!!! My daughter was very disappointed about her Christmas toy. Made me feel really bad for her.

Now we got a large item that will just sit somewhere..not something fun to play with. Not a good buying experience. Should have not left a feedback until after christmas. I went on blind faith that the car was going to run that was a mistake on my part. I really hate that I was the one to get the lemon!!! This toy is not Recommended!!!!

Sequel Suggestion

I think the next installment penned by Jason Segel should be the virtues of the collective, and praise for a muppet "Dear Leader"No seriously, the villain of the movie should have been the FCC for destroying childrens programing. I'm glad I grew up when you could enjoy Saturday programing like a kid should, relatively devoid of educational value. If Laugh Olympics had a polictical point of view it was lost on me. Or Pinelope Pit Stop had a feminist agenda (it might have, I was just a kid) I didn't know it.Of course the fact I don't enjoy musicals like I did when I was a kid could be another of the reasons I didn't get past the first 23 minutes.

Not exactly what I expected.

The book is nice and large and has lots of glossy, colorful illustrations. My only concern has been some of the content. My wife and I are both somewhat reserved and some of the nursery rhymes mention the slaughtering of animals and homosexuality, which we were not prepared for. We know our children will be exposed to the real world soon enough, and we ultimately want them to make their own decisions, I'm just not sure some of the content is appropriate for small children.

Difficult transition from Quicken for Windows

It is very difficult to convert a Windows Quicken file to a Mac version. One must manually change account and category names to no more than 15 characters in length. No automatic utility is provided to do this. So a considerable time investment is required to convert your files to Mac use. Don't expect Quicken to work like MS Word or other programs that can read files written on Mac and PC versions. I plan to keep my old PC and run the Windows version until the Mac version is cleaned up.

I was so disappointed when I got the Sex and the City complete series for Christmas. There were multiple episodes that would skip and some would not play at all. I thought maybe it was my dvd player, but I tried another one and it was the same thing. I even tried it on my computer, but that did not help. I thought maybe it was a fluke and I sent it back and got a new one, but I still had the same problems. I love watching this series and it makes me sad that I can't watch every episode without it freezing or skipping :(

Horrible execution! Bunch of idiots at FP!

Too long for curves and slopes

Although the cars are beautiful and no doubt they must be very durable, they are too long to handle well curves and slopes. I would recommend to buy shorter cars, because the more flexible the train is, the better it goes in curves and slopes.

Extremely poor: Author is busy defending himself

Everyone, avoid buying this book. There are many other books out there.As you can see on this page, one of the authors of this book tried to justify having made errors by saying other books have errors too. He also openly admitted having made contextual errors (which is extremely embarrassing) after being pointed out by one of his customers, but the author blasted him away and made no apology about selling incorrect data due to his ignorance and stupidity.

Another Great from Alexander

Lloyd Alexander is probably the greatest children's author living today. Gypsy Rizka is another great book by the master. Alexander has always brought strong heroines to children's lit. Rizka is yet another great to add to the list: Eilonwy from The Prydain Chronicles, Mickle from the Westmark Trilogy, Isabel from The Marvelous Misadventures of Sebastian, and Vesper Holly from her own books (there are also a few more which I haven't gotten to yet). This novel, besides its excellent characters, has a lot of humor. Alexander displays his unbelieveable imagination with the unusual methods Rizka utilizes to get out of trouble. Nobody mixes high adventure with humor as well as Alexander. The prose in this novel is unbelievably polished also. Gypsy Rizka doesn't have as much depth as some of Alexander's other novels, but there are not very many childrens books that can entertain like this one can. Overall, Gypsy Rizka is an amazing novel.

This Is Not Yoga

I am so glad that I was able to borrow this from the library instead of buying it. If I had purchased it thinking it was a yoga DVD then I would have returned it. If you use this as a normal workout that has some yoga concepts then you'll be okay, but if you are expecting a yoga workout you will be extremely disappointed. You cannot follow the workout without looking at the screen, and the instructor's constant and inane chatter would become really old after the second or third time. I understand why the DVD has the option to do the workout with just music, but that would make you even more dependent on watching the screen. Thumbs down on this one.

I wish this cd got more appreciation

I really wish this cd had gotten the appreciation it deserved. Her cover of Mandolin Rain is exquisite and the River and the Highway, as well as Tequila Mockingbird are superb as well. I thought Betty Got A Bass Boat to be completely out of place, and is why I'm not giving the cd five stars. That said, Pam's voice shines on this album and it is well worth her talent and anyone's time to check out.

I was so excited to get this CD as a gift. What a disappointment to have neither of the Samantha Mathis songs on it, especially "Big Bar Hair" (what a fun song) and "Maybe God's a Woman Too." Returned it without even opening the CD, as I mainly wanted those two songs! Guess I'll have to keep rewinding the videotape to hear them. Bummer....

not that great

this product is alright in material but the thing to take note is its terrible odor when you first open it and the odor sticks for a very long time. Don't get if you can't tolerate smelly things.

This CD is great! If you don't want to spend a lot of money on the box set, get this instead. Many of the same tracks are here.

Beautifully Drawn

I found this book to be beautifully rendered with with many drawings of examples face types, features and body language gestures that were clear and easy to understand. But the descriptions were very general and didn't cover all of the variations that exist in reality. (I suppose one is supposed to take one of the authors face reading classes for more info. listed in the back of the book.) Still, it was a facinating read, and a fun topic to try among friends.

Problems with the first chapter...

Ok, I haven't read this book. I've only looked at some of the content online.I have a lot of respect for Mr. Nye. He has done an excellent job making science entertaining. So, I was surprised that in the first chapter where he explains how airplanes fly, he uses the Bernoulli principle as the primary explaination. There are a lot of subtleties in how airplanes fly and Bernoulli is certainly one of them - but the primary explanation has more to do with Newton than Bernoulli. [...]I'm particularly surprised that Mr. Nye would use this simplistic (and mostly wrong) explanation as he is an ex-Boeing engineer and should know better! If this chapter is representative of the rest of the book, then I'm disinclined to purchase or recommend it.

Once more enter the darkness and meet Bergman.

"From the life of Marionettes" is a dark tale told by its multiple and unreliable characters. The plot begins with a shocking event through which the main character is introduced, where the audience is forced to judge him by the face value. What comes after is one of the most beautiful manifestations of Bergmanian prophecies: liberal, bitter, and extremely dark. This is a psychological hallucination, a bizzare experience in human relationship. Watch and levitate.

From My Inside

I'm 37 and have seen Alice several times in concert and In person.(he paid my cousins house off for him about 8 years ago) Some of you might remember the event. It took place in Riverside, CA. Anyway thats a whole other story. I think the first time I heard this album (8 track) was when I was in sixth or seventh grade.( might have been even before that) That was the album that turned me on to Alice. I think the best album he has put out. The lyricks are pure Alice as only Alice can do. Very few people even know, let a lone, have ever heard of it. I'm not sure why, I've heard different stories. It really doesn't matter. however It Is a shame. As much as I love welcome to my nightmare and all his other "greats" they don't come close to this album. If you love Alice and even If you don't, After you here this album and the lyricks, you're sure to become a "Cooper" fan.Now I want to see If I can find anything on the event when Alice paid my cousins house off.Thanks for listening,Pamiam

Not much fun.

I'll keep it short. This game is not much fun. Not entertaining, not exciting, doesn't really simulate a music instrument or beat pad. I have only tried it 4 or 5 times, but it's not pick up and "create" play so don't expect that. I was hoping it would be like "MTV Music Creator" on the Playstation 1 and 2, but no such luck.Try these games for more entertainment on your PSP: DJ Max Portable (soone to be released in the USA, but available now on import sites from Asia.)

Don't Believe the Hype!

I bought this CD believing the hype that it was a return to there roots. After listening to this, I'm not sure which roots they're talking about. This is a very weak effort. Not only for Megadeth, but overall. Having been a big Megadeth fan, particularly of the older material, I was starting to get bored with their work and was anticipating this supposed return to the "older" Megadeth. Didn't happen. From the sounds of this CD, Megadeth may be getting bored too. Buy "Peace Sells" or "Rust in Peace," not this.

Don't buy it.

This is perhaps the worst book on programming I have ever read. I am an advanced autolisp programmer hoping to learn Visual Basic for Autocad and this book claimed to be for me. Unfortunately it wastes its ink on theory and large print than just giving a lot of useful programming examples - which is the best way to learn programming in my opinion.

Very enjoyable read

Ok, it is not groundbreaking literature, so I can't give it 5 stars, but it was one of those books that grabs your attention and you catch yourself reading late into the night, promising time and time again to go just one more chapter. Solid character development, unique twists on a theme, and a first rate idea all in all. I picked mine up with some other paperback mysteries to pass the time on some long plane rides, but found that I couldn't wait for the return flight, I just had to see how it ended. I was enveloped in the story, and isn't that why we read books like this?

English DVD truncates scenes

The film No Regret is wonderful. Truly a gem. And for all those who whine about the twist toward the end, it helps if you understand Korean, Korean class hierarchies, and the notion of han. More than anything, make it through to the very touching (pun so not intended, but whatev) final scenes. It'll be rewarding.This DVD version released by here!, unfortunately, cuts a couple scenes short. And I'll be blunt. The scenes truncated are the sex scenes, and though some might regard them purely gratuitous, the two scenes that are cut reveal much about the characters' changing relationship. I find it highly ironic that here! - seemingly a distributor primarily of gay films - of all distributors would delete the gay sex. Be proud.

This was soooo Bad!

After seeing the trailer for this film, I really wanted to see it. Now, after having seen it, I'm sorry I did. It isn't funny at all and both of the main characters, Gwen and Eddie, are boring and annoying. In addition to this, it's pretty unbelievable to see Julia Roberts 60 lbs. overweight, frumpy and mousy. The worst part, however, were the jokes leveled at Gwen's Spanish lover. The only thing he, or anyone else, was interested in was his sexual prowess and size. I find this stereotypical and racist. Generally, I enjoy all of the actors that were in this film, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment and I don't recommend it at all.

After having this battery for 6 months now, I have to agree with those who have said to buy the genuine canon battery.

I was very anxious to receive this book as it had been very highly rated. I never got past the discipline portion. The Monks recommend that when a dog misbehaves, you should hit him under the chin........and if he doesn't "yelp" you didn't hit him hard enough. THIS IS TRAINING?????????

Excellent Memoir, great writing

This is one of my favorite memoirs, both for its difficult subject matter and the quality of writing. I couldn't stop reading this book and have since sought out other titles by the author.From the opening chapter you've drawn into the day-to-day obsession of addiction which, in the case of this author, is insidious despite its somewhat mundane appearance. Once she's brought you to the heart of addiction its easy to see how such a creeping and at first seemingly harmless relationship to alcohol can quickly go from social aid to problem crutch to full-blown need.In one of the most thought-provoking parts of the book she compares drinking, or any sort of addiction really, with exaggerated procrastination - an interesting take on addiction that still has me thinking.A must-read.

If you plan to use this with a laptop, read this.

I purchased this yesterday and returned it today. I wanted to use this with my Thinkpad. I could not load the driver and application to use the additional features (tilt wheel) because it conflicts with the Thinkpad touchpad driver. On Microsoft support site, it states the fact that it conflicts with some popular touchpads. I was disappointed that Microsoft forgot to print that on the outside of the box and wasted my time. Also, what is the deal with this scroll wheel? It is sticky and hard to move. I replaced it with a Logitech MX700, plugged it in, loaded the driver and bingo... It is perfect!

Well

Suddenly critics are believeable in your opinion? Well, your beloved Sills' caricatures of an Aida, Michaela, Carmen (!), Thais and late screeching of belcanto (In the late years) were "lambasted" too. So what? What about Sills' MANNERED way of rewriting every line the composer wrote? Her Anna Bolena is filled with such "mannerisms", as is her Lucia. Some very severe critics called Sills' glassy voice FAKE, ugly, sour, screechy and many more harsh words. So what? I still love Sills. How about the fact that Sills' ornaments were as tacky as H*** but still fascinating to listen to? Give Fleming a chance, or if not, stop abusing her. That should even be below YOUR niveau!

R for Really, Really bad

How in the world this movie got nominated for Golden Globes and Academy Awards is beyond my understanding. I gave it one star because there was no other choice. It's a prime example of the trash that Hollywood ships out to an unsuspecting public. The problem is that "big-name" stars are used to market smut and nudity and influence young adults into believing that hurting people, lying, being promiscuous and fearful of commitment is okay. It isn't. It's bad, really, really, bad.......and it's sad that some stars that I admired even agreed to star in it. Please don't waste your money and time on this film. Instead, you might want to investigate some of the really good independent films which are out...."Dear Frankie", for example, which recently was picked as #1 of the top ten movies of the year by the Associated Press Film Critic. Spend your money on those and lobby for decent entertaining movies, and not necessarily the movies out of Hollywood.

Not all that great

Sorry, but I don't like this album too much. 4 Out of 11 tracks (2,6,7,10)are quite good, but the rest are duds. However, I don't think that Mr. Peaston's singing is to blame, but the lousy material he has to work with. His previous album, Introducing David Peaston is an excellent recording. It demonstrates that if Mr. Peaston only had half the talent he does, he could more than hold his own against artists like Brian McKnight, Luther Vandross, or Babyface. Maybe if he started writing more like the aforementioned artists, he could have done more in his singing career. Mr. Peaston has only co-written a total of two songs between these two albums, and I think these are some of the better songs on which they appear. Who knows? Maybe he'll surprise us with something new. We can only hope.

Very disappointing

This book is a story about about Scleroderma and the people who had it. If you want to read about the treatment, simply go to the article written in the Lancet. Do not waste your money on this book thinking it will give you steps to doing treatment. It rehashes all the HORRIBLE things Scleroderma does to the body through the eyes of the people who had it and their family members. Yes, it talks about this "miracle" therapy, but this book was a waste of my time and money. Simply read about the treatment in the Lancet article which I am sure you can do for free.

This is the best standup comedy I have *ever* seen, bar none!These guys are simply the best! I wish they had some more deleted scenes, or special material.

Book not recommended, professes false information.

I have recieved notification about this book from a Muslim friend of mine. [...] It appears to be an attempt to corrupt the beliefs of what Muslims actually believe.I have read this book professes false statements customely altered towards Christian beliefs. Such a book seems to be published as a slandering tool rather than a helpful source.There are publications of the Quran and Hadiths which are valid and are translated to English. Personally, I have read and own a copy translated by Yusaf Ali. There are other translations of the Quran by translators Pickthal (i believe translated to French, then English) and Shakir. [...]As a non-Muslim myself, I would recommend not reading "The True Furqan" because of the deceptive and manipulative context it was created under. As can be seen, this book is causing frustration and anger. Perhaps someone will make a petition against it.
