From the IMAX to your Home Theater, "Grand Canyon" Rocks. by JediKermit Pros: Stunning cinematography, powerful score, excellent script.
Cons: It's better on the very very very big screen. In summer of 2008 I was able to revisit the Grand Canyon for the first time in decades. Visiting it was a remarkable experience, made more interesting by our nighttime visit to an IMAX theatre showing Grand Canyon: The Hidden Secrets. ...

BadDER Santa: the usual Christmas redemption story under a coating of vomit by Stephen_Murray Pros: Tony Cox
Cons: overkill of profanity and attempts to shock those who believe in Santa Claus, repetitivity Once upon some time, I enjoyed Terry Zwigoff ‘s “Crumb” (1994) and “Ghost World,” and, more recently “Art School Confidential” (2006), all films of some subtlety. I had doubts that I would find the ...

No Regrets: The Best Dope Yet. by boom5251234 Pros: Guitar solos and guitar riffs. Big improvement.
Cons: None. I have not written a review on a CD in almost four years. Why not write one now? Sure. Sounds like a great idea. A mime actually walked up to me and talked to me today.I'm obviously going to write a review about a band named Dope. If you never ...

As I Lay Dying by jpolhemus Pros: Brilliant, innovative, demanding, rewarding read!
Cons: A difficult read for the unengaged reader. One of the most important writers of the twentieth century in any country, William Faulkner could tell a rousing tale. Check your collective memory. You're sitting around the campfire and the the storyteller begins. When it is Faulkner, expect ...

Do you feel like I feel, or are you just being kind? by tjhassecrets Pros: A respectable follow-up to Runaway Horses.

Wondering if Scarlett O'Hara had a personality disorder... by knotheadusc Pros: Beautifully filmed. Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Hattie McDaniel.
Cons: Kind of a silly story overall. Today, Scarlett might be diagnosed with a personality disorder. Gone With The Wind (1939) is one of those iconic films that many people will see at least once in their lifetimes. Since I grew up in Virginia and, for many years, was a dedicated viewer of Ted Turner's cable channels, I have lost count of the ...

"The Basics of Surfboard Design" by Bob Smith by tributebooks Pros: debunks many "established" truths
Cons: Professional artwork would have more fully illustrated the concepts for better comprehension. I gotta admit right off the bat - the closest I've ever come to surfing was on a $10 foam boogie board at Coquina Beach in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I live in the land-locked state of Pennsylvania and trips to the beach are few and far between. ...

"Burning" is Right by fuyu_yuki Pros: The writing is fairly competent.
Cons: Starting to become absurd. Review contains some minor spoilers. Like most of the Tomorrow series, Burning for Revenge is bad, and bad for the same reasons. This one, however, is perhaps the worst. I didn’t finish it. Doesn’t anyone bother to ...

Read anything good lately? by jpolhemus Pros: Promotes readers and reading, uses imagination, provides a colorful array of items in each picture
Cons: A valid question, but no "answers" for this book! (Means: No cons) Quick! How many types of reading material can you name? Twenty-six? That's exactly what Writers Susan Allen and Jane Lindaman, and Illustrator Vicky Enright create for a playbook a teacher or librarian might use. Actually, more than twenty-six, but ...

An Exquisite Welcome to the Season: Enya's "And Winter Came" by befus Pros: Simple melodies; Enya's voice; creative keyboard and percussion; poetic lyrics; reverently joyful tone
Cons: None for anyone who enjoys this musical style Sometimes "peace comes dropping slow." That's a line from a poem by William Butler Yeats that seems to describe how I feel when I listen to the soft, soothing music of Irish singer Enya. I've been a fan of Enya's work for years, though ...

Two Erratic Episodes On One Dead Medium, “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” Volume 2! by wlswarts Pros: Very funny, Some great moments
Cons: Some moments of early-series clunkiness “Monty Python’s Flying Circus” is one of the staples of comedy and whenever a new medium – VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray – is introduced, it seems to be one of the first shows that is transferred over. As sad as it may be to admit, the geeks who are usually the ...

The Cove: The Mass Slaughter of Dolphins in Taiji, Japan: Oscar Contender for Best Documentary by andaryl Pros: Insightful documentary, amazing reveal and filming of dolphin slaughter in Taiji, Japan
Cons: The heist angle is a little jazzed up The Cove (2009) I’d put this movie on my Netflix list some time ago, and having forgotten all about it, was thinking at another glance that it was one of those modern horror movies. An idyllic paradise setting, a secluded cove in a small ...

However, I incorrectly assumed that this was a fact book on monsters (I did not read the description very well). It was not what I expected but I was not ...
