The Kingdom
Kingdom: So-so action flick ruined by hyper-editing and shaky-cam.
by ChrisJarmick
Pros: Decent cast, intense suspenseful final 20 minutes.
Cons: Very violent, herky jerky shaky camera work.
I wasn't going to bother posting a review for The Kingdom but it has too high a rating and too many overly positive reviews for me to not put my two cents in here at Epinions. The Kingdom is essentially a dumbed down action ...

Tom Petty: Runnin Down a Dream: Long Documentary, Concert & Music Disc too!
by ChrisJarmick

Ultimate Britney Spears? More Like Annoying! "The Singles Collection" Boxed Set Is Only For Collectors!
by wlswarts
Pros: Generally thorough, Good concept, Some decent rarities
Cons: Bulky, Entirely incomplete
Just when I thought I couldn't hate Britney Spears more, I have to go through and listen to twenty-nine discs of her works! This is why people go crazy around the holidays. So, too, is the idea of shelling out anywhere from $75 - $100.00 for the ...

McDonagh Brings His Dazzling Array of Talent To The Big Screen
by JiggyJay
Pros: Fantastic cast, McDonagh's direction and script, darkly humorous yet deeply dramatic
Cons: Some stuff might be offensive
A huge sleeper hit of 2008 happened to be In Bruges, the first feature film from Irish playwright Martin McDonagh. He's known for his darkly comedic stage productions and this film is no different. It blends both together in a black mass that's ...

Laying Down the Law
by spelvini
Pros: classic western with Widmark as the bad guy
Cons: a little too much by-the-numbers
There are some fine points to admire in this well-written reaffirmation of the myth of the Old West, which also riffs on loyalty and the way criminals define the code of laws governing society.  The old poetic notion that good triumphs over evil is ...

OLD Fashioned Christmas
by bonnieleigh
Pros: Technically well performed classics, definitely old-fashioned flavor.
Cons: May be too old-fashioned for some; a few songs a bit draggy.
This is a fine collection of really OLD songs, OLD arrangements, and OLD singers.  Then again, sometimes it's hard to improve on such professional renderings.Though all three artists - Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, and Louis Armstrong - are ...

Sarah McLachlan Fills Wintersong With Melancholy and Surprising Melodies
by bilbopooh
Pros: beautiful vocals, some neat instruments, Song For a Winter's Night
Cons: overall bleak tone, some traditional carols are almost unrecognizable
Sarah McLachlan is an artist with whom I have some familiarity, thanks to her distinctive voice and the popularity of some of her songs, particularly Angel, which is one of several excellent tracks on the City of Angels soundtrack, which is ...

Pros: Rumble match, Edge vs. Jeff Hardy, new storyline developments

Amazing how things turn out. The Royal Rumble happens to be the first WWE PPV to begin the new year. The RR normally sets the tone for the year, beginning new story lines and sometimes ending them. This particular event began a couple of ...

Pros: Humorous, charming and funny enough to watch. Paul Rudd steals the movie.
Cons: Not a laugh riot, not particularly unique. Sometimes crude.
Writer-Director Judd Apatow's Knocked Up was the extremely propular follow up to the surprise smash hit  The 40-Year-Old Virgin  a raunchy funny update of an 80s sex comedy that benefited from great charismatic performances and ...

I'll Take Manhattan
by spelvini
Pros: well-crafted melodram with Joan Crawford and directed expertly by Otto Preminger
Cons: It's basically a noir soap opera
If anyone ever thought that Joan Crawford wasn't one of the most striking women in cinema with an overt sex appeal, the film Daisy Kenyon is a boost for the woman who was in her early forties when it was made but is visibly shown as a beauty under the ...

Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer - Twilight book 3

Pros: more action than previous books
Cons: less character development, awkward love triangle, less charming and interesting primary characters
The lamb fell in love with the wolf....wonder how the heck that turned out. Apparently, it's turning out quite well considering that the lamb - or human - Bella Swan, is still very much alive while she remains still very much in love with the wolf ...

Cons: could've done with a couple more slow songs, liner notes kinda annoyed me
I’ve enjoyed several movies featuring Bette Midler and am well aware of her musical talents, but I never sat down and listened to an entire album of hers before. Getting into Christmas mode inspired me to do just that when I discovered Cool ...

Sometimes "Nice" Can Be Boring

Pros: A few decent songs, and meaningful lyrics.  Lyrics included in album liner.
Cons: Overall boring.  Some attempts to jazz up songs just miss.
My overall impression of this Christmas album is that Donny might be trying too hard.  With his ultra-conservative background, you might expect very traditional songs, but apparently he is fighting that image here and trying for a more updated ...
