Stroker Ace/Hooper/Sharky's Machine
An awesome film, a good film, and Stroker Ace
by hbala
Pros: Burt Reynolds, when his career was at its peak and his mustache at its... mustachiest...
Cons: Stroker Ace isn't representative of his best stuff...
3.5 stars for this one. Since this is a big deal to me, I'll first mention that none of these three films are presented in widescreen format. Before Schwarzenegger and Stallone, my go-to cinematic action dudes were Clint Eastwood and Burt ...

Holland America Tours
HAL Alaska Cruise and land tour - June 2008
by cruiseman1001New Member
Pros: Cruise ship was clean and well maintained.
Cons: HAL is definitely not geared for families with children. Land tour was a fraud
Recently did the 7 day inside passage cruise sailing from Vancouver followed by the land tour ending at Fairbanks. We were 3 families from California with kids from 7-13 who travelled together.The land tour is definitely overhyped and oversold. ...

Dr. Joel Kaplan Penis Pump
If your problem is ED, it might work but.....
by stradercp
Pros: Made of components which are of reasonable quality and seem to work as designed.
Cons: If you have an ED issue, do some more research before buying this pump.
I bought this pump for an erectile dysfunction (ED) problem. I managed to get it for about $100 (through one of the Amazon vendors). While I think $100 is way overpriced, I opted not to buy one of the 'other' pumps for the more reasonable price of less ...

Being Julia
Frothy look at theatre...and a stellar Annette Bening performance
by rmurray847
Pros: Annette Bening. A real affection for theatre.
Cons: A languid pace occasionally tries the patience.
BEING JULIA achieved what little publicity it did purely by virtue of the praise (and Oscar nomination) heaped on the performance of Annette Bening. She certainly earned the accolades. This is probably her best performance, in a career with several other ...

Enduring Love
Enduring irritation...but a chance to see Daniel Craig in something NOT like Bond at all
by rmurray847
Pros: A terrific opening 15 minutes
Cons: Dull and psychologically unconvincing thereafter. Mediocre performances.
My wife and I went to this movie based on several glowing reviews we read from movie critics. We're fairly adventurous movie-goers...we frequent the "art house" as often as the multiplex. We like a wide variety. We like comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi, ...

Paul Auster - The Book of Illusions: A Novel
Inventive and original...but a bit cold
by rmurray847
Pros: Very interesting story. Well-written.
Cons: The theme is tough to discern. This makes the book a bit cold.
This is proving to be a very difficult book to describe. The basic plot elements are relatively simple, but trying to convey the tone...the meaning...that's tough. The plot: our narrator, David Zimmer, is remembering a time some dozen or so years ...

Cons:

Could be addictive.

Capital One
Big on credit cards, not on banking
by evilprince
Pros: It could only get better (because it's so bad now).
Cons:

Trying to mold clients to your way of doing business is unfriendly.


Capital One banking is another move toward the robotic, impersonal banking that corporations love and people love to hate. I'm not necessarily going to wax poetic about "the way things used to be", "Blahblahblahblah Bank was better", "I used to walk ...

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy by Sarah McLachlan
Finally, Fumbling receives the treatment it deserves...
by chiliqueen
Pros: Collects Fumbling and Freedom for the first time; Piano version of Possession, music videos.
Cons: Not much new for fans.
Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, her third studio album from 1994, remains my favorite Sarah album; its haunting, dark undertones make it the perfect late-night listen. Beginning with Possession, inspired by Sarah's personal ...

Keep
Beauty in Shambles

Pros: Atmosphere, some memorable performances and visuals, Tangerine Dream's score, strong beginning.
Cons: Narrative falls apart midway through, missing footage impedes plot development, some of the effects.
"The Keep" (1983) is the little-seen second film by acclaimed director Michael Mann, and it is based on F. Paul Wilson's thrilling (and far superior) novel of the same name. As far as I know, availability of the film is limited to the point that it is ...

Pros: In the long run, you may have improved writing skills.
Cons: I don't believe that an education may be taught exclusively online.
I attended University of Phoenix for a week and a half and as you may suspect I dropped out immediately. I was very stressed out with the required reading for one week of class. My thought is that the school wishes to remain accredited, but in order to ...

Well, time to review some of the other albums that came out this week. Believe it or not, even with the New Kids On The Block album hitting I still noticed there were some other CD’s that dropped. P. Diddy is once again giving us one of his pet ...
