0 | Found a Small Rock!! | While eating this cracker, I bit into what seemed like a peppercorn, but upon closer inspection, it was a small rock! I couldn't believe it! Good thing I was chewing slowly and didn't chip my teeth! I emailed the company but received no response. | 15,141 |
1 | White Water Summer | My wife and I first saw this movie on TV. We enjoyed it so we decided to buy it. White Water Summer is what I would call a sleeping thriller. It creeps up slowly and grabs your attention just when you think it is just another flick. Kevin Bacon is his usual scary self, Mr Nice Guy, until he is out in the wild with his young charges, then seems to be nasty to the smallest boy of the group. (A young Sean Astin.) But, it is the smallest one that gets the bad guy out of trouble at the end of the movie. If you like a group of four boys out in the wilds for a few weeks, then this might be the movie for you. | 33,369 |
1 | Outstanding sound quality ! | I had bought these speakers in late 2004 and am still using them now (2008). I had paired these with a Polk 303 Subwoofer and an Onkyo 702 receiever. To date, I have not heard any other speaker brand that comes close to the audio quality (and clarity) of these speakers. A real keeper! | 7,699 |
1 | photograph ringo starr's greatest hits | i already had "BLAST FROM YOUR PAST" ringo's greatest hits package that came out probably 25 years ago. this has most of the same songs on it but the sound quality is soooo much better. i really enjoy it and it is in regular rotation on my cd changer | 17,294 |
1 | Music people Carry Bag | This bag kick A--! It is worth WAY more than charged. Strong, padded and well made. I would buy more if I needed this size again. | 7,821 |
1 | To be young and misunderstood | A truly wonderful movie about a 12-year-old boy who feels unloved and unwanted by his parents, misunderstood at school - a cog with no wheel to fit into. In trouble all the time, more by circumstance than anything else, he runs away from home, gets caught "stealing" (actually returning) a typewriter, and is sent to reform school. His one desire is to see the ocean, and he escapes reform school and gets his wish at movie's end.The camera work is excellent and seems to be everywhere - high overhead, close up, always on the move like the boy. There are many humorous scenes, especially in the school in Paris: Truffaut knows the minds of 12-year olds perfectly. There are some great ironic scenes, too: the "warden's" children being locked in a cage when the reform school boys have free use of the yard. Truffaut's first movie release, and a leading example of the French New Wave; a funny/sad viewing experience. A great movie. | 40,250 |
1 | Not bad but I wouldn't buy it again. | I used it around my city and even took it to Hawaii and it was a lot of help. People forget that the idea of the GPS is to help you find where you are, where you want to go and how to get there but like everything else, it may not be 100% correct -what really is?What I didn't like about it was the windshield mount broke so it no longer sticks on the windshield.The biggest thing is that the maps are out-dated. I live in an area where they are building a lot of new homes. Even developments that are 2 years old aren't on the map!I don't mind paying for updates - I realize that someone has to get paid to update the maps - but I will not pay several hundred dollars to buy a whole new set of maps! | 41,853 |
1 | Wizard's First Rule | I am not one who ever liked fantasy fiction books before but reading Terry Goodkinds wizards first rule got me hooked. I could not put the book down it had me captivated. I have enjoyed the characters as well the story line it was like being in another world. I read the book in two days the way that the book was written really got my imagination going. Wizards First Rule got me hooked and now I am almost done the series I really hopes that if Terry Goodkind is finished this series that he will start another. | 5,449 |
0 | great movie bad dvd, also wont run on my system | Same problem that another spoke of, runs into trouble with chapter 2 and ends at the start of chapter 7. Amazon was great on sending me a replacement, and after finding it was the dvd itself offered to take it back for a full refund. Can't complain there, but fox really messed up on a great film to release such a poor dvd... | 608 |
1 | Functional but not for beginners. | This is a nice helicopter but very feeble; it is my second Blade CX2; after lots of crashes I learned to fly this rc coaxial helicopter but the cost was the destruction of the first one. It is very smooth and it looks nice when flying, but be careful with the crashes, it can easily break. | 21,879 |
1 | Review for wookbook1in Japanese in Mangaland | The workbook pairs nicely with the japanese in mangaland book its basically an action (mecha) manga with exercises to help you translate it . Even after first lesson the ability to apply what i learned helped seer in my mind the lession i had completed. i was happy with it | 24,242 |
1 | It's great!!! | I just received this package, it's in great condition! Actually, it's in perfect condition! This series is really great and I recommend everyone who loves nature buy this one and keep it all through your lifetime! | 13,700 |
0 | I wish I would have read reviews. | Well I agree with the rest of you on this...I bought the book because I kept seeing it on the best-seller list. I kinda read what it was about, but wondered what all the hype was??? I wasn't real thrilled with it at all. A dog finding nothing but her elbow? Is that supposed to be funny? I didn't even pass it on to anybody in my family. They would probably find me "strange" for even attempting to get into a novel like that. | 5,806 |
0 | Very funny! | Very funny, this is coming from the man who said to Felix Rodriguez: " I am worth more alive than Dead to you!" If you want to know who this coward bubbling sociopath idiot was just reading Exposing Che, and Un Mito O Realidad and Shadow warrior. All these other books come straight from the Source: His family or extremely biased admirers. He was so good at warfare that he got killed because he couldn't even lead bolivian campesinos who were on the left. the irony is he became what he hated most: A capitalist Icon. | 3,853 |
0 | Quinn Davenport is LYING | This man is a fraud, his song come to me was played on extreme makeover home edition and when asked about it he said they had stole his music. If a network steals your music wouldn't you be inclined to sue? He is also on the internet on myspace.com/quinnd his pictures are fake and he is an internet predator. He speaks on average to 80 women on this site spouting lies in order for them to send them pictures of themselves in a compromising position etc. He lied about being sick to get sympathy and probably lied about a great many other things. If you buy this cd you are endorsing an internet predator, that picture he used on his cd is in fact an msn display pic that he has edited. Thankyou for your time. | 45,069 |
1 | love this game! | My little girl loves this game and easily learned how to play it. She is only four by the way, but has been playing it for the last year. It is one of her favorites and mine too. It is quick to play and we can easily play it three or four times in a row in less than a half hour. It is true that it does not fit properly back into the box, but that has not been an issue for us and it could be more sturdily made, as our button sticks once in a while. Even with the couple of things that could be better I would still recomend it. Even my 10 and 11 year old pull this one out to play. | 46,826 |
1 | camera harness | This harness is easy to use and comfortable. One needs to make a bit of an alteration to the connection of your camera, and it is best to remove the regular camera strap. | 19,035 |
0 | DRESS | I was not thrilled with this item. The quality is not so great and I received a quilted jacket rather than the one in the picture with the embroidered flower. I don't like it as much. I would not recommend this particular item if you are looking for quality. I bought one for my sister as well and she returned it. | 18,457 |
1 | Intense, emotional, and meaningful | I bought this CD after surfing onto Downface's website. I was very surprised to find a band that could mix it up so well. Each song has a individual feel to it, yet they all have the intensity which I love. "Ocean" is the quietest song on the album, but it's lyrics are extremely moving. "Lies" made me think, and "Headcase" got my blood flowing. Overall, I was very impressed and I really think these guys are going to go places. I don't hesitate at all when I recommend this CD. You will not be dissapointed. | 19,789 |
0 | No door, no good | Took me wayyy longer than it should to cook one slab of ribs, since I kept having to take them out, take the grill out, take the water pan out (which resulted in disaster on my first try), and re-light charcoal. Do not buy a smoker without a door on the side for adding more coals or wood. I could not keep the temp up at all. I used the minion method to get coals lit, and I'm pretty sure I did it all properly. I got so frustrated by the end that I just finished cooking my ribs in the oven. I've never had buyer's remorse so bad before. | 6,687 |
0 | A travesty against both the Swingle Singers and Bach | I still own and listen to my original vintage lp of the Swingle Singers doing Bach. It dates from 1964 and sounds infinitely better than this cd, even after the rough handling of my college days. Because I have an original recording in the old format, I can tell you the sound on this digital recording is atrocious. By comparison to the original this cd sounds horribly garbled and the beauty of the music and the voices is lost. I wish I had bought a used version and spent less. This is fit only for the trash can, I would not inflict it on some innocent person by reselling it used. Actually I put it in the trash can but pulled it out so I would have the correct cd title to post a review on Amazon. Bach is the greatest. The Swingle Singers are fantastic. Find some other recording to enjoy both (together preferrably). | 11,617 |
1 | Mean, Tight, & Funky | I've listened to Charlie for over forty years; this is one of his best albums. Why? He wrote all the songs, he's backed by the funkiest band I've heard on any of his records, he doubles on slide--excellently--his writing has never been better, and there is a great diversity in the songs, something that is difficult to achieve on a blues recording.In "She May Be Your Woman", the boastful Charlie taunts a husband by telling him how he--and not the husband--has kept that gal happy. "When she comes in about three o'clock in the morning, you can only wonder where that woman's been (she's been with me, that's where she's been!)" The harp blowing is just as swaggering and lowdown as the lyrics. "River Hip Woman" is more of an uptempo number but contains fabulous harp and tight support from the band."My Road Lies In Darkness" features Charlie on solo guitar, and he's GOOD!You could do far worse if you wanted to pick this up as your first Musselwhite album. | 17,879 |
1 | Great Product | This is the very best facial cleanser on the market. I have tried many over the years & keep coming back to this one, reasonably priced as well. | 34,652 |
0 | Too much Bill, not enough Bruce... | I got this movie for two reasons: 1. It's being sold in Russia on the black market as "The Matrix 2." 2. It has Bruce Campbell in it. Unfortunately, Bruce isn't in the movie for long, as he is killed off early in the picture. The rest of the film is pretty bad, being your typical DTV picture, but there are some good qualities to it. Michael Dorn is good as Menno's best friend, and there is some good humor. But most of the movie is very silly with terrible acting and pretty subpar action. I guess if you like "Johnny Mnemonic," you'll like this one. | 8,613 |
1 | BBQ the easy way | I've been using this for years, as has my Mom. I don't mix the powder with water; just sprinkle the dry contents over pork country ribs, thick-sliced pork shoulder, marinate overnight, and grill over charcoal. Perfect. | 46,916 |
1 | Fabulous Book, Great Recipes & Stories | I love Alice Waters, her slow food philosophy, and use her cookbooks constantly. My daughter has the hard-bound copy I purchased years ago and has loved this book since she was very young. I bought this one to have a copy for myself. If you love slow food and want to read great stories about Alice Waters and her daughter and her experiences growing up in the restaurant business I highly recommend this book. | 47,989 |
1 | Was it a murder | Imagine that you are an heir to Sam Westing. Then you would know how it felt to try to figure who killed him. The book is The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin. In this book the reader must figure out who killed Sam Westing. He was a very wealthy man, who loved to play chess.Sam Westing (supposedly) was murdered in his home after his tenants moved in to Sunset Towers. (Sunset Towers is a strange kind of place which faces east while the sun rises in the in the west.) One day somebody found him dead. Later all of his heirs came to hear his will. To their surprise it was a game to figure out who killed him.As you get closer to the end of the book you start to wonder, did Sam Westing actually get murdered, did he do something that he shouldn't have, or did he die of old age? There is only one way to find out. Read The Westing Game.Meghan, a sixth grader | 13,553 |
1 | The carry-on for your psp games and movies | I truely love this lovely carry case. I already have 3 so far and maybe I might get more. This case holds 8 umd disks, extra back up battery, and the psp itself. It is real great for the kids when you are going on a long trip. Easy to store and easy to clean. | 19,392 |
0 | Not worth the price! | I bought many of these because of the price. They are NOT worth even $.50 each. Butane leaks on all of the ones I bought. You'll use it once and set it down. Then the next time it will be dead. They don't hold fuel. Period. They MUST be made over seas. CHEAPLY. Buyer beware. | 30,606 |
0 | Not Cat Proof | I recently purchased a medium ERGO auto pet feeder. After some difficulty in understanding how to get the timer working, the directions are poor and the the buttons on the timer are not correctly marked, I got it working.All went well until on the second day of operation. I went downstairs to check on the feeder and the cat. Low and behold the cat had inserted his paw into the feeder spout and was shaking out cat food pellets. He would eat them and then repeat the operation. I then put my finger into the feeder spout and was able to shake the feeding device and get out cat food pellets.Needless to say this was not what I was lead to believe in the product advertising. Failure to make the feeder cat proof is a major design flaw. My cat is no Albert Einstein, so this will be a problem for others. | 6,573 |
1 | like it | I haven't done much on the bike yet, but I like it so far. The only problem I've had is with the handlebars - hard to tighten. Also... not the same color. More of a metalic blue. | 34,479 |
1 | a great mother-daughter movie | Whenever I watch this movie, I think that the characters are actually a reflection of real mother-daughter relationships. | 19,633 |
0 | The Worst!!!! | I coudn't get thru the whole movie after the rape, and the breastfeeding I had to turn off!!! Do not buy! I found this movie totally disgusting and it made me sick for days. I love horror movies thats all I watch, this movie gives good horror movies a bad name. | 31,702 |
1 | Truley De-Evolved!!! | This is definatley an awesomely DE-EVOLVED recording!!! As a young spud, I am pretty tough to impress. Smoothnoodlemaps didn't impress me except for maybe 3 songs, but this cd, E-Z Listening Disk DID impress me! I disagree, this is NOT the worst DEVO CD ever released. This CD is a great way to show the 5 spuds' musical range with this Muzak style CD. What also helps is that they picked the best songs to further De-Evolve. I would have licked to hear a muzak version of Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA and Disco Dancer (if they would have waited 3 or so more years). Besides that, this is an awesome CD and a must have for true DEVO Spuds. Hey don't be a ninny! Buy E-Z Listening Disk... or be a Huboon \-) | 19,333 |
1 | Would unsubstantiated "news" enrage the populace? | I started off reading with a "prove it to me" attitude about whether ordinary people would be so mean-spirited as to persecute a person as shown in the way the book opens. By the time television journalist Alan Weston crosses paths with booze and bikers, I was hooked by Mr. Boyll's ability to flesh out his characters. The action throughout develops from the truth inside each of us. There is a good sense of timing and full development of all the scenes. Katastrophe is well worth the read. And, yes, the world can be a cold place but there are heroes out there. | 37,136 |
0 | Not Good | I tried this on the day I got it to see how it felt. The velcro is so strong that when I tried to take it off, the velcro ripped the top layer of the material right off. I would not advise buying this. I was dissappointed in the quality of this product. | 40,649 |
0 | bad game | I was convinced that this was a great game by all the good reviews, so I got it thinking it was worth the money... But guess what, IT'S NOT! It may be fun in the begining but after a few days, after you get used to the controls, it's just the same boring thing over and over again. So take my advice and skip this one. | 21,494 |
1 | A must have book | My son is an insulin dependent diabetic for 15 years. He had been counting carbs for 5. He recently began pump therapy so counting carbs is essential in determining how much insulin he needs to bolus for. We were given this book from a friend and were so happy with it we have begun recommending it to other pump wearers. The book is small enough to carry with all his other supplies. It has everything in it from fast foods to family fare. So easy to look up the information he needs...saves time...eliminates the need to calculate foods. For a 16 year old it's perfect. A much needed book for any diabetic. Good job! | 26,411 |
0 | Bad quality! | I bought a Vector vec013 and after a couple months it doesn't hold the charge.All leds show full charge but with it you can NOT start a car.May be is ok for small motorcycles or lawnmowers...but definately is NOT good for a car or truck.BEWARE..It's a waste of money! | 49,837 |
0 | Stanislaski Brothers | I found this book to be disappointing, and I think Harlequin should stop reprinting some of these older books, because they make the authors look bad. This book was very repetitive, not in the least original, and not worthy of Nora Roberts | 44,010 |
0 | Awful! | Bought this thinking I was purchasing a good product by a reputable company. Bad move! The handset constantly loses 'communication' with the base and the caller ID doesn't work consistently either. I went to bed last night with the handset fully charged and sitting on my nightstand. I woke up with nothing on the caller ID, the speaker button on the base lit up and the handset in use. To top it off, I had a new message from my friend on my answering machine! Huh!?! | 39,697 |
1 | Yeah It Rocks! | This is the only thing that wont brake or freeze in ice.( Never try freezing it in ice oops!) | 34,708 |
0 | Don't buy it! | I am a user of a shaving brush and have tried many different brands of shave cream. This is by far the absolute WORST!! It doesn't lather well and the shave I get with this and a new blade is worse than canned shaving cream for $1.99. If you want a good quality lubricating shave cream, try the Jack Black shaving creamJack Black Supreme Cream Triple Cushion Shave Lather, it actually lubricates your beard for shaving and works well. | 22,704 |
0 | I didn't get the ending | I'm confused about the ending -- did the ex-con really attack Rafer's daughter? Was that the motive for Brandt's killings? Or, if the attack was made-up to get Kinsey to suspect Rafer, where's the motive? I've read most of the Millhone series, and I thought this one was a dud. | 40,004 |
1 | Hilarious, period. | Kevin Hart is too talented, if you can be such a thing. He is simply put hilarious! If you are looking for a DVD that is going to be timeless, this would be the one. | 30,900 |
0 | Deja Phew | Deja Vu is about a man who is on this mission to get facts about a bombing that takes place in some remote dock out. There is time travel involved in the film. There is a lot of detective work and dragging storylines around this film. There is little or nothing "cool" about this film. I almost slept shortly before the intermission. I know there are a gazillion Denzel Washington fans and all; I can respect that but seriously, guys, WHAT A BAD FILM. This film reminded me of XXX 2. And readers, Van Helsing was a better film than Deja Vu and that is saying a lot without saying much. | 23,724 |
1 | Feiyue Sneakers | I have become a big fan of barefoot walking, but live in a city, and like a sole between me and the broken glass. I also have two different sized feet. These are a really good compromise. A slight adjustment to the lacing works well on my shorter foot. The only thing that would make this perfect would be an option to provide me with a custom order for different sized shoes.I'll be looking for a high topped pair for Fall. | 32,440 |
0 | Smoked duck | I have never had smoked duck before so perhaps my expectations were too high. It was a disappointment, proving to be tough (in fact it was hard) with poor flavor. As a result of its desicated state it was also difficult to carve.Laurie Penman | 11,243 |
1 | Great spoon for $.99. | For the price of $.99, it's a great buy. I would not pay $10.00 for it, though. I like that it's 12-inches long, because it's convenient when stirring hot sauces. | 6,446 |
1 | Good Friends Are Hard To Find | This book was recommended reading by our psychologist, prior to my daughters' upcoming social skill classes.The book is easy to read and has very descript and precise instructions. My daughter has hosted three play dates successfully. This success is due to the checklist from the book.I would recommend this book for those parents who want to ensure their child's play dates are based on building friendships and successful. | 5,013 |
0 | Poorly written | You can almost smell the envy and the "I told you so" attitude of the writers. Ironic when this book is no more than attempt to cash in (while of course, occupying the moral high ground) on the .commania so bitterly missed by the authors.I noted that one of the chapter titles misspells the word"Silicon" as "Silcon"...There are many fascinating stories to be told about fear and greed in the valley --this book has none of them. | 25,578 |
0 | Not what we thought | We were disappointed with this product. We have KIds in the Kitchen by the same group and it is excellent. This one has only instrumental songs. The titles seemed to suggest otherwise. It is good instrumental, but not what we expected. | 12,760 |
0 | Curious? | Unfortunately, this book was poorly written. So poorly written I could only read a couple of pages at a time before putting it down and coming back to it another day. Sure, I initially picked up the book understanding it is a young adult novel - probably not a literary novel - I can give it some forgiveness. But the writting was so immensely juvenile I felt I was reading a book meant for 8 year old children. My forgiveness can only extend so far. I am curious why this book is so popular. Sure, I can give it 2 stars for originality. | 5,824 |
0 | Does not work... | I recieved this product.. It worked for about 5 days.. Then, when i turn it on.. it works for about 10 seconds then goes out..I then was issued a replacement... then, the same problem happened to this one within 2 days...And now amazon will not give me a refund, even after i sent it in to them.. so i'm left empty handed and nothing to show for it...Do not buy... | 18,858 |
1 | thought provoking fact based fiction... | Interesting book but I am not suprised by what Crichton found in his three years of research. My wife worked for a nationally recognised 'scientist' before we were married and had told me that he regularly disregarded and discarded findings in his research that did not support his 'views', and that his results always seemed to find new questions that would justify new research.The one couple in our circle of friends who are both 'professional greens' (paychecks from environmental organisations) become absolutely frothy at the mouth at the mention of this book. They insist 'it's all not true'. When I asked them to specify a particular part that's untrue they seem utterly incapable of rational discourse continueing with shouts of 'all of it, all of it! Crichton's sold out! Open your mind, he's sold out!' Personally I'm glad they set me straight. For a second I thought they were the one's with the closed mind.... | 43,876 |
0 | Wow...*mourns* | all i can say is i dont know what happened to these guys.the original self-titled and much afraid were amazing, i -still- listen to them even today....but everything since then has been so pathetic, i mourn for the band. i mean, this is NOT jars of clay...im sorry, it's just not.i feel horrible giving such a good band a bad review, but sadly they deserve it. | 9,918 |
1 | Classic movie | I finally broke down and purchased this movie because I am tired of it never being on HBO or any of the other premiums. It's always on demand for $5 but why not own it for a few bucks more? The bonus features are surprisingly nice. | 26,775 |
0 | God Help Us. | If this is what receives 5 stars with hundreds of reviews, while excellent, talented bands go unnoticed, then the end is coming and all that is left will be middle school, pink punk horse crap. Once again Simple Plan has put out a wonderful album with music about as punk as New Kids on the Block. With lyrics even more 'simple' minded than the last CD, Simple Plan has seriously passed my expectations... They're even worse now. Maybe I'm being too harsh. I'm sorry, SP fans. Wait, no I'm not. | 49,164 |
0 | Useless | Windows XP refused to load the drivers from both the install disk and from their website. This happened on two different systems. The install disk has drivers for several devices, so it was difficult even finding which one to pick. In the end, none of them worked. | 46,367 |
1 | Way more than just retro jangle pop | Not sure how someone can call this "pseudo-60's crud." Dude, listen with your good ear! This album has so much going more going for it. Take opener "Seems So" is a wonderful look at a guy trying to explain an unusual phenomenon. A few listens and you finding yourself joining in his mystery. Yup-jangle-pop-catchy chorus-power pop, but The Beach Boys? Not in the few tracks, at least. Think more Badfinger. Personal is "About Your Fame," an mainly acoustic effort discussing a friend's changes.Okay a touch of Beach Boys here. "Silver Chain," "Tin Pan Alley," and album ending delight "Coda" are worth the price of admission. Don't miss this one. | 21,712 |
0 | Do not buy this game! | This game was horrible. I bought it after hearing good things about it but it is the worst game for PS2. The only ok thing about this game is the bullet time which is not all that great. I bought this game and immediatly took it back. The graphics are the worst. I haven't seen a game on PS2 with worse graphics. If you want a game like Max Payne wait for Dead to Rights which will really be cool. | 37,624 |
1 | The book was good. | Brian Tracy's Maximum achievement is a very easy to read book which will at least help you to think more positively. There isn't too much detail in this book unlike Tony Robbin's "Unlimited Power". It is best that you really have a good idea of how to properly visualize beforehand because this book doesn't really spoon feed beginners. There isn't anything magical or instant about this book either. It really just helped me to have a positive attitude. I felt that "Unlimited Power" gave me better directions on strong visualizations and Robbin's exercises were more instant pushing me towards my goals. However, Maximum Achievement did a better job of selling me on my ability to shape my own destiny because of how well written it was. | 24,454 |
0 | Cutting out the charm and character... | This MGM Home Video version of Darling (#1005693) is not a full version of the film. It was enjoyable but rings of media puritanism. A number of defining scenes, albe-them mildly risque, are missing. This is cultural and historical bleaching. We must discourage companies from ruining films. Do not buy it. I am now out the money and looking for the full version on DVD. | 24,494 |
1 | Sets a beautiful & high ideal | Gives a refreshing ideal of love, contradicting puritan rationalism that can enter even deep Catholic thinking. Gives practical insight for discernment. | 42,746 |
1 | Historic Book by The Man With The Greatest Idea of All Time | Written more than 1.5 centuries ago, this book was the presentation of the greatest discovery/idea of the history of human-being and the turning point for our modern understanding of the world. Darwin's magnificent theories about the evolution of life on the Earth have since been confirmed by all branches of science. Even if you read this book as a science fiction, you will learn a great deal about how scientific method replaces ancient beliefs with scientific explanations. | 44,146 |
0 | Not really worth paying for. | This is mainly a movie about two men (and a small group of people) who try to capitalize on three loud, drunk neighbors. It goes from a story of annoyance, to interest, to exploitation. It's boring, certainly not worth paying for, and arguably not worth spending time on. | 5,354 |
1 | Ryan's return | Great book. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. Looking forward to reading more from this author. Definitely recommend this book!!! | 38,048 |
1 | Very, very funny!!! | I didn't expect much when I ordered this except a light humor T&A flick. I was pleasantly surprised at how funny it actually was. The large amount of topless Japanese hotties didn't hurt either though. If you liked the old movies like "Meatballs" and "Up the creek", you will love this as it is better than both of those. Great "B" movie!! | 27,280 |
1 | Food for Thought | I found Perfection Salad in a used bookstore in Manhattan ten or twelve years ago. I read it, was fascinated and stirred by its tale of the psychological manipulation of women - particularly, the women who were new immigrants to America at the turn of the century. I loaned the book to someone who never returned it, and have been quoting it -- and longing to re-read it -- ever since. I have just re-ordered the "back in print" edition...Here is what is important about this book: it details an overlooked, but critical, thread in the fabric of family and community life -- a thread that was quietly pulled until the greater tapestry unraveled. | 37,949 |
0 | Save your money | Fortunately for Mikey, racism against white people is politically correct. He is inflammatory without being humorous or thought provoking. If you are politically conservative or moderate, forget this book. If you are more liberal, you can do much better elsewhere. ... | 37,237 |
1 | My wife is happy with these hooks | My wife wanted hooks for bathrobes in the two bathrooms that her sons use. I knew they had to be VERY sturdy or they would be pulled out of the wall in a few days. I was able to use my own longer screws to attach these directly to studs in the wall. She likes the classy brushed metal look and I like that I will not have repair them very few weeks forever. | 2,364 |
0 | Do Not Buy This Movie! | I Bought This Movie Cuz I Was A Fan Of The First Three. And I Was So Disappointed. The Death Scenes Were So Unbelievably Un Realistic And The Cast Was Sucky. Take My Advice Do Not, I Repeat Do Not Buy This Movie! The Fact The Overall Rating Is Like 4 Stars Blows My Mind. The Final Destination 5 Is Better Though I Wil Say That. Save Your Money On This One Folks. | 49,014 |
1 | Not as bad as others have said | A lot of people are giving it low ratings because the animation technique is old. They combined good modern animation with old school animation. Well, that tells me that they ran out of time or money, but the content is good and it's an entertaining film. Isn't that what films are supposed to do? It was a good first DL movie. If enough people buy it and support it, they might get more funding for a sequel with more fancy animation. | 42,118 |
1 | love it | The best time that wrestling was at its greatest. The dvd arrived a few days later after it was purchased. Just loved it, no problems with it at all. | 3,394 |
0 | Not long enough | I ordered the 3/4 to try them, as I always use the full length. I didn't like the 3/4 length because if you put it in your shoe with the insole of the shoe left in it takes up too much room. If you take the insole out there is room in the shoe, but you don't have any sole or cushion in the front of the shoe, and the transition from the orthotic to the sole of the shoe is uncomfortable. So I returned them and reordered the full length instead. Other than the length, they feel and do the job as the full length. Oh, by the way, I love that you can mold them to your specification. | 20,484 |
1 | The funniest woman alive | I'm appalled at the reviewers who have the audacity to say Laurie's work isn't hilarious. One clearly has no sense of humor if she fails to make you laugh. Sure Laurie pokes mean spirited fun at Camaros, morons in line at Fedex and kids with stupid hairdos but she also thoroughly makes fun of herself which you've got to respect. And you're kidding yourself if you can't relate to some of her tales - we all lose patience with strangers and do idiotic things.My respect for Laurie doubled when I met her a B&N; book signing. She is a great person - as funny and sarcastic as you'd expect from her writing but also genuinely nice - the kind of person who makes a really fun friend. She clearly cares about her readers and delights in meeting the people she has touched with her stories. She also shared the chocolate Twizzlers someone brought her with everyone at the book signing. You gotta love generosity when it comes to candy! ;o) | 43,758 |
1 | Very useful as extra bed and play area | I bought this for my parents house in case baby would like to sleep when we go over there... It is very easy to assemble and move all around the house because of the wheels. Also, it seems very sturdy and my baby sleeps like a baby when he's inside... great price too! | 39,704 |
1 | Widow for one year | It is a great book and It lived up to my expectations. It is one of the greatest novels i had ever read!!! | 39,046 |
0 | Waste of time | Save your money, and avoid this book.The book suffers on three counts.First, its prescriptions are nothing that cannot be found in scores of self-help and positive thinking books, most notably the works of Norman Vincent Peale.Second, the lessons are woven into a badly-written story, or "parable". There are a lot of these parables floating around right now. I suspect the self-help authors like them because they can be used to dispense moral maxims without the burden of supplying proof or real-life examples. But if you are going to hand people life advice, you ought to be able to back it up. It is too easy to pass out sugar-candy.Finally, there is a lot of New Age nonsense in this thing. It undermines an already mediocre whole, and it adds nothing of use. Frankly it is weird. | 46,967 |
0 | DVD has outdated Information on Argenitna | This DVD is dated as a 2004 release and maybe the DVD was released then but the video was defintely filmed at least five years earlier.The video is not very helpful and full of false information about the country, particularly the cost of traveling. Justine Shapiro states that it is VERY VERY EXPENSIVE to travel in Argenitna. It was back then when the video was made, mostly in 1997, but now after the devaluation in 2001 Argentina is considered one of the most inexpensive travel destination in the world.It was shot in 2004 and contains the latest information for tourists, such as the CURRENT price of hotels, food, etc.If you are interested in visiting Argentina and really want to know how it is NOW I recommend you consider the "Best of Buenos Aires" video on Amazon. | 34,245 |
1 | The Soup Is Made From Scraps | Ah, what could have been. The final Buffalo Springfield album comes up slightly short of their legendary second lp (Buffalo Springfield Again). If you didn't know any of the history of this record, you would find the breadth and scope of this record to be truly amazing, rivalling the Beatles White Album. Smart pop (On The Way Home), latin bounce (Uno Mundo), stadium rock (Special Care), beautiful country (Kind Woman), and Neil Young (I Am A Child) to name a few. They sould like different bands, almost.To know the story is to know that essentially they were 3 bands at this point. Stephen Stills did most of his songs by himself with studio musicians. Neil Young had little to do with the record except his tracks. Richie Furray and Jim Messina worked on their tracks.Be that as it may, throw this in your cd player and cruise on down the road. You're going to love the journey. And these songs and performances are so good, they are going to stay with you whereever you go. | 18,585 |
0 | Poor quality | This item looked great but tips too easily and after hanging 2 coats on it the area surrounding one of the support legs cracked & split therefore no longer supporting the foot to hold stand upright..Very disappointing because the product was cheaply made..I feel the product should be refunded without the the hassle of repackaging and all the red tape involve as I shop online for convenience as I am limited on my ability to travel & shop..I would ask for a replacement but not if I am going to receive a product that will preform the same.. | 2,043 |
0 | cancion editada | Todo estaba bien en esta edicion digipack, pero al llegar a la cancion "sin tu carino" se escucha una version cortada al comienzo, al medio y al final. | 1,402 |
0 | The trailer is the best part. | While this film is not all that bad and there is some pretty good action, it still leaves a great deal to be desired. For one thing it is nothing like the original which while also fairly forgettable, Sam Peckinpah did direct it with enough style to give it merit. In that version James Caan plays an Ex-CIA commando that is injured and must regain his mobility before he can resume his duties, Through a great deal of the film he's coping with his injuries and gaining new strategies in training. This film bares no resemblance at all with the original except where the title stands and the fact that the characters have job simularities. The trailer contains nearly every scene of action that is included in the film except maybe one I can think of. And when you know De Niro's name is connected with it and he's one of the main characters you really expect a good deal more. All in all it's a pretty familiar story and done a lot better in other films. | 7,580 |
1 | Here we go again | I suppose I should just prepare a template on my computer -- to be used whenever Tom Friedman publishes a book. Every book so far -- and I've read and re-read them several times -- is an absolute joy. This new one is simply delightful, a master's take on the world as it is, and about the possibilities for progress, and pitfalls. One would think that a steady diet of Friedman's column would sate a reader. But here comes yet another book that's filled with fresh insights. And it's beautifully written. What a joy! | 15,811 |
1 | JIMMY HITS A MEGA BINGO, AND THE ZIONIST 'LOBBY' IS FLUMMOXED | Go, Jimmy, go! It's about time that a major politico has had the guts to speak the truth about the ugly side of the Palestinian dispossession. As Norm Finkelstein has already noted elsewhere, Carter's book could have been even better, but as it is, it is still very good, well written and most useful. Carter's book title is most appropriate, as Israeli author Uri Davis also noted years ago when he wrote his revealing book, ISRAEL: AN APARTEID STATE. If the shoe fits, Zionist partisans should be 'proud' to wear it. | 35,357 |
0 | HORRID!!! | I had been drooling over this for a year or so from the infomercials and finally broke down and bought it. It did not do what they said AT ALL! I mostly bought it because I wanted to be able to cook meat from frozen as I tend to forget to lay something out and end up eating out which gets expensive for a family of four. Well, with this I end up throwing out the food and eating out anyways. It will NOT cook your food from frozen without leaving the center frozen and the outside charred. I have regular pans that aren't the size of my stove that I can cook thawed meals in I was hoping for something I could cook frozen meals in. It is also very big and time comsuming with having to add water, open/shut valves, and turn food over every couple of minutes. Definately not worth the money. | 34,822 |
0 | speed is not as advertised | I got the ones that claim to be up to 52x speed. The highest recording speed I can burn this with my CD-R is 16x. I don't understand why this is happening? It clearly states that I can record up to 52x but seems like all my CD burners can't burn higher than 16x.When I use other better brands, I can go all the way to 52x without any problems. I think this brand is cheap generic. I am gonna just give them to the next door neighbor's kid. | 26,063 |
0 | What a big disappointment | I have never written a book review before this but was so disappointed by this book, after seeing it recommended in a book review and buying it, that I felt compelled to write my first review, for what it's worth. I am truly annoyed that I spent both the time and money on the book. I thought it was trite and cliched, with stilted language and dialogue -- Dorothea was laughable, even considering how sheltered she had been, and I think the problem was that none of the characters were particularly well-drawn or sympathetic, all kind of simplistic or even simple-minded -- it was like a uninteresting, melodramatic soap opera for 13 year olds. The story is nothing new, but there were subjects covered that could have been very interesting and compelling parts of the story line IF the writing had been better. One reviewer said "blah" and I completely agree! | 44,674 |
1 | GREAT BUY!! | I have a husky, who loves to try and hank my arm off. I've tried everything, every training trick in the book, given them time to work too but NONE of them worked. But this harness did the trick. Immediately I noticed a HUGE difference, she barely pulls at all anymore. And I've tried harnesses, head harnesses, slip collars, clicking buttons, treats, walking the opposite direction when she yanks, stopping and making her sit everytime she pulls, nothing worked. But this harness is really amazing, it does it for you, when she pulls it turns her around, so she's pulling on herself and not you, works great I recommend this to anyone! | 34,913 |
0 | Buyer Beware | If you were using Pinnacle 9.X to capture in DV Preview Mode, then switched to editing in Pinnacle 10.5.X you may find that the only quality of DVD you can burn is in the VERY low Quality Preview mode. Looks like Pinnacle forgot to bring this Disk space saving feature forward. | 37,925 |
0 | Skip it! | Coming from a woman who has no children of her own, I find it very interesting that she considered herself expert enough to write a book. Most people giving out the advice on children, don't have any of their own. I thought this was a wishy washy endless diatribe for the permissive, new age parent. Lots of psychobabble nonsense that believes children should control their parents and we should sit back, smile and analyze..Save your money! | 24,243 |
1 | How sweet it is!! | What can you say? If you're a Laker fan, anytime you can see a game where you beat the Celtics is enjoyable and worth it. Quality was very good considering that over 25 years have gone by. Very satisfied. | 23,733 |
0 | SKIP IT - BETTER INFO AT AARP | The information in this book is way too simple to be helpful. For example, noticing ordors and disturbing sounds at the nursing home. Most people are able to figure out what ordors and noises mean in this day and age! The author spends alot of time writing about herself which is very boring. What a GAS BAG! Better and more reliable info on how to identifying quality care in nursing homes is available at AARP's website and their published documents (which are free). It is a waste of money to buy this book. | 13,713 |
1 | texascontessa | Totally excellent phone....superb battery time.There are so many things to say about this phone. It has all of the bells and whistles I have come to expect from Panasonic.It has excellent sound quality coming and going.It has the copy phonebook feature I just adore.And importantly it has a headphone jack on all the handsets...Super important to me!And a little something that came as a surprise that is new. When you review your calls and they are erased from your "missed call" list they are also erased from all the other handsets!! Very nice little extra.I use this in my home where it has to go from the third floor to the basement and past the furnace metal issues in the walls. Never a problem with going out of range.Thrilled with this phone. | 32,554 |
0 | Ugly Addition to Any Bathroom | I bought this because my parents have a nice brushed-silver toilet roll holder. Not the same as this but I couldn't find theirs online. So I ordered this. It's hideous whether loaded with toilet paper or not. When stacked to the top with toilet paper, it looks somewhat obscene. You'll have to trust me on that. These things can be done tastefully, but this particular one is not designed well. | 11,073 |
1 | Good Pop Science | Although this book deals with come scientific issues, it does so in a very accesible manner. The basic topics presented are how and why certain plants have been domesticated by man. The twist is that the why covers not only the why from the human point of view, but also that of the plants. As the book points out, not all plants are willing to be domesticated (the common example for this is the oak tree), but those that are have generally enjoyed an abundance unknown by other plants.Four case studies are presented, with each of them illustrating a different reason for man's domestication of plant species, and a particular species that represents this desire. I found the first (Desire: Sweetness;Species: Apple) and last (Desire:Control;Species: Potato) to be the most interesting in the book. The last one in particular raises some important issues and tough questions regarding genetically modified food. | 25,244 |
0 | Wonderful film, terrible DVD | I'll leave comments about the value of this movie (which I love) to other reviewers. what I want to warn buyers about is the rediculous lack of features on this DVD. There are, literally, NONE. There's not even a language menu for close captioning... it's essentially like buying a VHS tape that's been transferred to DVD. Don't waste your money. | 40,120 |
0 | stargate sg1 season 10 | im sure this would be great but being from northern ireland i wasnt able to play them on my dvd player , i would have to buy an american dvd player to see them | 20,495 |
1 | Great book! | The World of War craft book series is both exciting and fun I would recommend this to all of my friends | 32,506 |
