0 | horror for ten year olds | Half a dozen women go down to explore an unexplored cave--without weapons to defend themselves with(should danger arise--and arise it does.) Right there the filmmaker lost all credibility with me, and not only that, you could hardly see/make out what the hell was going on with anyone; they made the cave that damn dark.... | negative |
0 | LOUSY | This movie was about an inch of me gonging it. It was like I was in the cave watching it. I plan to sell it to Blockbuster because it is not worthy to be in my collection.The best part was the end. | negative |
0 | Dumb and Dumber and Dumber and | Six macho bisexual chicks go caving and find blind creepy underground things.Hey girls, don't be so cheap and rent a guide who has done that cave before...duhhh.It's hard to feel sorry for dumb and dumber and dumber and.... | negative |
0 | FAIR | THE MOVIE FOR ME STARTED WHEN THEY GOT LOST IN THE CAVE. I KNOW THEY WERE TRYING TO GET YOU TO KNOW THE CHARCTERS IN THE BEGINNING. THE DIALOGUE COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. I DID KNOW ONE OF THE WOMEN WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH ONE OF HER FRIENDS HUSBAND. I DON'T THINK THE CHARCTERS WERE STRONG ENOUGH. MAYBE THEY NEEDED STR... | negative |
0 | descent into stupidity | I just watched this for a second time after about a year. I gave it 2 stars because of its science fiction merits but would have given it one star otherwise. A group of women descend into a cavern and can't get back out due to multiple stupid mistakes and underground monsters. The main mistake was the way they handled ... | negative |
0 | SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! | I thought this movie was one of those horror movies that took forever to get to the point!!!It reminded me of Wolf Creek which I barely watched. These movies make you want something to happen so bad that u almost turn the movie off. Finally when it did get to the good parts they were pretty good. I wish the story line ... | negative |
0 | Disappointing hollywood formula ending | Buyer beware. This is a version with a feel good hollywood formula ending. It is not the original, it was redone to give the US viewers a somewhat happy and typical USA horror ending / resolution, (pretty symbolic of our countries state I would say). Get the European version. I bought this thing w/o realizing they redi... | negative |
0 | Don't waste your time... | What a major disappointment this movie was. It's just a bunch of horrifying images with little to no character developement. Was I supposed to care about these women or just watch them all die and hope I find the death scenes enjoyable? And exactly how many centuries would it take for humans to become bat like is beyon... | negative |
1 | I never get scared, BUT!!! | I thought that The Ring was funny when that girl came out of the TV. I still get a kick out of how "not scary" that was. The Grudge made me cackle with joy when the hairy ghost girl emerged, how funny! Nothing seem to scare me in theatre anymore, except for this movie. I didnt really know what it was about when I saw i... | positive |
1 | good movie | I'm not much for words when it comes to writing reviews, but I thought this was a good movie if you like scarey movies. | positive |
1 | good movie | It is worth to watch, good story, scaring but also attractive, should it is very good for friends' gathering, all ppl watch together | positive |
1 | good | Its a great movie for jumps and scares and the story is not that bad. I have a high end system and the audio is pretty awesome as it helps convey the Scary elements. The picture is good on my HD TV but not the best I've seen. Its a great movie to pop on a rainy night especially enjoyed on a good surround sound system! | positive |
1 | Terrorific Extreme Adventuring | When watching this movie, I feel like I'm in that labyrinthine cave so far underground--just as I find myself on the mountain and in the crevasse when viewing Touching the Void. I found the troglodytes very believable as well. The character development was quite adequate. The acting was fine. I found nothing that detra... | positive |
1 | good all the way thru | Genuinly creepy and disturbing. Good special effects make the a claustrophobics nightmare. The second one follows suit. Worth your time | positive |
1 | Better than expected. | Not bad! Worth the watch! The monsters or whatever were a little weird but oh well, still some scary stuff. | positive |
1 | I'm not going spelunking! | If ever a movie made me want to stay out of dark caves this one is it. Love the creepy dark surprises. | positive |
1 | A good flick | This is a good modern take on a wonderful H.P. Lovecraft story. The claustrophobic element is great, the cinematography is good and the story keeps you entertained. | positive |
1 | Stay Far Away from Caves | Very suspenseful and scary gem of a horror movie. The tension just keeps growing until you can't take it anymore. The creatures are simple but effective especially in the right light. Can't wait to see what the director does next. Ignore the awful sequel. | positive |
0 | Not bad for a budget movie | I thought they did a good job with makeup in the movie but the script and the way it was directed was not typical for a movie of this type. Made it feel more budget. | negative |
1 | What a movie.... | This movie was very very good, but confusing at the end. It is a great scare, most will enjoy the movie. Be ready for a fright night! Enjoy! | positive |
0 | Waste of Time | READ THE BOOK!!! This is just a horribly pieced together slasher film. The book is a really good read, don't see this unless you're trying to scare your eight ear old sibling. | negative |
1 | The Descent | This is quite simply one of the best horror movies ever made. And this comes from a person who watches almost nothing but horror every day. Never has a movie been so bleak since "John Carpenter's The Thing". Neil Marshall first made his mark on "Dog Soldiers", another excellent film, and the direction here was even mor... | positive |
1 | The Descent. | A Bunch of Women who want to be Men well not all of them, go into a Cave(no pun intended) and meet some interesting Things on the way down(That's what she said), and so these "Things" Or Creatures apparently have it out for them, Short and Silly review but hey it is what is,I did like the Movie and I certainly Enjoyed ... | positive |
1 | The Descent | This movie was really great, I wasn't expecting much, but this movie has more blood than any horror movie I've seen so far. Good story, very scary at times, and I don't scare easily, enjoyed this movie very much. | positive |
1 | WOW Great movie!! | I could just say "WOW" and leave it at that! If you like scary movies, movies with lots of action, and movies that you finish watching and want to watch again just because IT WAS THAT GOOD......well, then buy this movie!! It has become one of my favorite movies of all time, and I've watched a lot of horror movies!! | positive |
0 | Descent Review | I ordered the DVD and it would not play the last two chapters, so I received another DVD and it still would not play the last two chapters. I only got part of my money back for something that was not my fault. I am not very happy with how the purchase turned out. I have not heard why both of the DVD's would not play th... | negative |
0 | No turkey just a STINKER | Wow- i remember renting this when it first came out, and probably would have both excited and scared me if i was 12, ok maybe 13 or even 14. Beyond predictable, and the scary stuff was just smoke and mirrors to me. Really a waste of time as I have seen better B plots. Filmography was decent but that was about it | negative |
0 | BORED AT ALL... | I SAW THE MOVIE BUT IT'S BORED AT ALL. ALSO IT'S NOT ENJOYMENT. THE CREATURE WAS STRANGE AND DISGUSTING. I THOUGHT THIS MOVIE WAS GOOD-LOOKINGBUT IT WAS NOT. ANYWAY THIS MOVIE WAS A FAILURE. | negative |
0 | disappointing | I didn't find the Descent to be a very interesting film. It was a predictable storyline about a bunch of young women who go into a cave, and then they predictably get stuck and have to search for another way out.Once they're stuck in the cave, you can probably guess what happens next. Odd creatures come out (who appare... | negative |
0 | one star and one jump | This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I jumped once, but that doesn't make a scary movie. The first half of the film, nothing happens.. they all meet up, try to appeal to the male crowd by being all female, and you have all the typical characters. The know-it-all, the one with a bad past, the cocky one, etc... | negative |
0 | One of the worse horror films ever made. | Just finished watching this movie and the best thing about it is it finally ended.Slow, boring, and extremely gory with uninteresting characters tied to a script filled with cliches. That about does it except if you're having trouble sleeping do watch it since it's a wonderful cure for insomnia. | negative |
0 | Trash...utter trash | After getting about five minutes into this movie, I was wondering why I should care. I was wondering the same thing at fifteen minutes, half an hour, an hour, and all the way through the end.Frankly, I was bored, I thought the suspense was completely transparent, the characters unbelievable, and the acting mediocre at ... | negative |
0 | HORRIBLE. PLAIN HORRIBLE.... | I have nothing good to say about this movie as it made no sense at all execpt that the female's British accents were cool. | negative |
0 | Well, that was terrible... | I'm disapointed that I'm never getting back the 99 minutes of my life I wasted on watching "The Descent." It's just as stupid as the Project Greenlight movie, "Feast" (horror/sci fi). This one definitly goes on the list of movies I wish I DIDN'T watch. VERY predictable...tried working off of sheer gore...and when that ... | negative |
0 | Desucked | If it wasnt for the suspense and the sudden frightenly few moments in the movie I would have given it 1 star. | negative |
0 | Slllloooowwwwwww and slower | I made it through about an hour of this horrible picture, I kept hoping something would happen. When a monster? finally appeared, it was like watching a silly kiddie horror film, after this I said I've had enough, everyone else watching it with me felt the same way. This was the british version, uncut. | negative |
1 | Pretty creepy | I had hopes for this one and it delivered. I liked how I was never sure what to expect, even though some elements were typical of suspenseful/horror movies. It was gory enough to make me cringe, and creative in that it isn't an unbeatable super-monster based tale. I like the ending, and would like to see the alternate,... | positive |
1 | Intense | Overall a good intense movie. Character development was lacking thought, and as a result, it was difficult to determine the character's roles and dialect after they all got wet, dirty.... and bloody! I couldn't tell who was who. It kept me on the edge of me seat. I wasn't sure who was going to have a horrible accident,... | positive |
1 | Take "The Descent" into a realm of pure terror! | If you are tired of those lame, ineffective horror movies that have been advertised to keep you on the edge of your seat and scare you to death, take a look at "The Descent" for a fresh new look on this view.This movie WILL terrify you beyond all belief. You will find yourself just as scared as the victims in this movi... | positive |
1 | a veritable masterpiece | neil marshal's The descent" is a great movie.the outline is as follows.six girlfriends go caving only to find out they are not alone in the cave.what follows is a fast paced adrenaline fueled thrill ride that grabs you by the throat and won't let go.there are many scary moments in the film.there is a nice buildup of su... | positive |
1 | Finally, a decent horror movie | This had my heart in my throat from the verybeginning. It's about time they made a horror movie with strong female leads that doesn't degrade them or use them as eye candy dangled in front of a sadistic killer.This movie had a lot of layers to its characters and the creatures were freaking scary! | positive |
1 | Above grade | Very good horror flic. But the DVD ending left me puzzled. Turn out the lights, you'll be rewarded. | positive |
0 | Dark and Confusing | I had some problems with this film. It seems pretty implausible to me that six potential models would even take on this expedition. Even if I accept this premise, none of the characters distinguished themselves, so I therefore had no emotional investment in any of them. When they ultimately get to the depths of the cav... | negative |
0 | Looks good on blu-ray | Hmmmmmm, a few thoughts come to mind, gruesome,goulish,bloody. If you like that, then you will love this. It has a good plot, movie keeps you on your toes, but the blood and gore in the movie is apparent and graphic. Not suitable for children, period! | negative |
1 | The difference between unrated and regular version | First of all let me say i really enjoyed this movie. Not like a regular slasher. Its very good. I actually seen it at the show. Now the main difference that no one has listed out of all these reviews is, just the ending. I didnt see any more gore than was at show. Something unrated doesnt always mean extra gore or sex.... | positive |
1 | Creepy Cave Trips Are Never a Good Idea | This movie is scary. This group of women thinks it is fun to go on annual adventure trips. I prefer a nice hotel on the beach, but creepy crawly caves sound better to them. You really get to know the characters and care about them and the things they have been through. It is their trip to the caves and what they go thr... | positive |
1 | Great Horror movie! | I love horror movies. Unfortunatly, it's hard for me to find any that actually scare me. "The descent", however, does a fantastic job. I popped it into my DVD player with the average expectations of a "horror" movie set in caves with girls as the protagonists. About halfway in though, when the "monsters" finally showed... | positive |
1 | Amazing. | 2006 has been packed with PG-13 horror films, lots of them. Then are the gore flicks (TCM the beginning), and other stuff. Finally, a good horror movie comes out in august: THE DESCENT, a British horror film with a good twist.STORY: One year after a car accedent, 6 women reunite in a cabin in the Appilachian mountains ... | positive |
1 | The Descent Blu-ray Review | I already have this movie on DVD, but like it so much that I ordered it on Blu-ray too. I am very impressed with the quality of the HD. I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys an original horror flick! I also continue to be impressed with Amazon's excellent service and quality products. | positive |
1 | Well cast, intense, and suprisingly unconventional | This movie could have easily been an inane, repititious, piece of garbage. Just cast one, or more, of US Weekly/STAR/TMZ's latest darlings. Let 'em stumble through the film with mediocre acting skills- but perfect hair and make up! The pay off? Why those opening weekend box office returns of course!Instead, "The Descen... | positive |
0 | Blows!!! | As I write this I'm 48 min. into the movie and i don't know if I'm watching a female version of cliffhanger or a Horror movie. All I have seen is 5 females have a sleepover in a cabin, some woman get stuck and starts to hyperventelate and some woman have a hard to time crossing over a hole. So if your up for watching 5... | negative |
0 | CAVE-DWELLING SLASHER FLICK | My expectations were very high when I bought this DVD. The first 45 minutes of the movie were a little slow, but seemed to be building up some momentum. The first 15 minutes of cave diving with the bush league spilunkers was OK!. After that, the flick just turned into another slasher movie in a cave. The darkness added... | negative |
0 | Horrible film. | This film is utterly horrible. Gore shoots from the creatures and women as if propelled from a pressure washer, the creatures somehow rip several of the women to shreds without their teeth coming into contact with flesh, their movements look ridiculous as they are not actually moving more quickly but the film rate is, ... | negative |
0 | BOOOOOORRRING!!!! | Until now, there was some debate aboutPlan 9 from Outer Spacebeing the worst movie ever made. Well, the debate is over...The Descent (Unrated Widescreen Edition)wins that prize hands down! There's definitely something wrong with a movie when you find yourself rooting for the monsters more than the victims. And how come... | negative |
0 | overated and robbed | Taking the classic James Cameron ALIENS premise, except going underground, this really got nowhere, despite all the great reviews--I got nowhere! I am sorry but I found nothing new. Perhaps its me, I am retard! but I felt I was robbed of time. I found it lacked story, and the moral of the story was odd. ok, in the end,... | negative |
0 | This is a joke!! | I was really excited to rent this based on the 4 star reviews. Needless to say once I started watching it, I was bored for the first hour. Then these ridiculous looking monsters appear out of nowhere.ABSOLUTELY BORING, HARD TO SEE, and STUPID. WORST MOVIE EVER.. try Halloween orExorcist if you want a REAL horror movie. | negative |
0 | Don't Waste Your Time | I read a book by Jeff Long with the same title and about the same subject. Though the book started a bit slow, it took up speed and turned into one of the best reads ever, to me. I was wondering how they would turn something so interesting and complex, and psychological into a video. They didn't. This does not, at all,... | negative |
0 | It COULD have been a great movie . . .. | Okay. Let's start with the good. The atmosphere was suitably claustrophobic. The background music fit the feel of the movie. The crawlers were well-designed.***SPOILER ALERT***Unfortunately, the movie did very little to make me empathize with the "heroine". Juno had an affair with Sarah's late husband. That was bad. Bu... | negative |
1 | A great follow up to Dog Soldiers | The Descent has everything you could want in a horror film. The acting, atmosphere and gore were all top notch for this genre. Some people I went with didn't even know it was a creature film. They thought one of the girls was going to go psycho in the cave and start killing them all off. Boy were they surprised. I caug... | positive |
1 | Dark and Claustrophobic Horror | The Descent is a horror movie that develops a plot that's original, harrowing and not for the claustrophobic or faint-of-heart. I had never seen these actresses, who here play members of a hiking group embarking on a misadventure in an unexplored cave, but I was duly impressed. Natalie Jackson Mendoza (Juno) is beautif... | positive |
1 | Dinosaurs are back and you're lunch! | Do you hear that buzz? Don't worry, it's not a swarm of killer bees. It's the buzz surrounding this highly anticipated first novel by Justin Strauss. Justin is an academically trained paleontologist, so you can be assured that he knows his dinosaur details.The book? Entirely gripping. If you like crackling, intelligent... | positive |
1 | Very Entertaining Movie | I watched the China Doll movie DVD that I received from Amazon.com and thought it was very entertaining movie. The movie builds up the relationship between Capt. Brandon (Victor Mature) and Shu Jin (Li Li Hua) which leads to their marriage and having a little baby. It is sad at the end as both Shu Jin and Capt. Brandon... | positive |
1 | Wonderful Movie | I have not seen this movie since I was a young teenager and have been looking for it for so long. I was so excited when I found it on Amazon, I bought it straight away. On recieving, I cleared my afternoon, took the phone of the hook so not to be disurbed, sat down and enjoyed every minute of it. It's not Academy Award... | positive |
1 | About China Doll | This is a movie that i've wanted for over 20 yrs. Amazon.com is my hero!!!! This movie made me cry when i watched it after i had seen it with my dad, who died in 1990. This is a movie that makes me feel closer to him. | positive |
0 | Too Old | I bought the lipstick as mine had turned old and I wanted a fresh one (even though the color has been discontinued). The lipstick I received was the same quality of old as the one I already own. The lipsticks are old and should be thrown out! For $17, the vendor should not be selling. | negative |
0 | Terrible! Beyound-use date | Lipstick that arrived is so old, it even smells worse then my granny's oldest lipstick which she takes out from the tube with a match!I had to throw it away.... | negative |
1 | Borror and Delong's Study of Insects | Great price...well over half off of the university's bookstore. Only black and white pictures and illustrations, but very thorough coverage of entomology. | positive |
1 | REVIEW - Borror & DeLong | This is a keystone book that should be in every entomologist's library next to Chapman's The Insect: Structure & Function and Romorser & Stoffolano's The Science of Entomology. | positive |
1 | Book purchase | Product was in excellent shape as indicated.I received the book quickly and would definitely do business with these people again.thanks | positive |
0 | Only a music producer can like this. | Listening to this synthesized 21st Century adaptation of a great classic could turn a classical enthusiast into a classical hater. After listening to this anemic attempt at capturing the power of a acclaimed musical portrait by using synthesized instruments, one is left to wonder why a recording company hasn't recorded... | negative |
0 | beware | The product does give the surround sound experience, which sounded okay in my cars audio system. However,this version is not the orchestral sound I was expecting. Rather it is more of an organ piece, which I find not as rich or vibrant. | negative |
0 | happy i only wasted money for 2 Music Experience in 3-Dimensional Sound | Music Experience in 3-Dimensional SoundThis cd shouldnt have been recordedMy fault i bougt this cdWas tempted of the dts recordingI could have readed other rewiewsThe experience listen to this is saddnes over own stupidityLoke1858 | negative |
0 | oh my goodness! | If this is a single release, that must mean the full album on CD would run about $700. The dollar must have dropped through the floor. | negative |
1 | The dummy "FATS" is hysterical!!!! | ALL I can really say about the movie is that the puppet steals the show. It really didn't matter how weak the story was because the puppet's comments made the show. | positive |
0 | Dummy Scared the Be-Jesus Out of Me | Oh, God, do I remember seeing the dummy's face in the ads. That was the scariest thing about this movie. I was probably about 8 or 9 at the time. I remember watching "The Incredible Hulk" on a Friday night and the commercials came on. This face appeared on the screen and I thought it might be the show, but it wasn't. T... | negative |
0 | More Ham-O-Rama Theatrics From Sir Anthony | Whenever anyone I know blathers on about how great an actor Sir Anthony Hopkins is, I tell them to stick this in the VCR. It's a horror movie, alright: a horror to sit through. lt's Battle of the Uncured Hams as Sir Anthony, Ann-Margret and Burgess Meredith act up a storm on a script that should have never seen the lig... | negative |
1 | Take The Knife Up The Hill And Rent This Movie! | forget the fact that the viewer has no clue HOW hopkins' Corky got involved with the dummy, or HOW he even got famous at all. the big deal here is Hopkin's performance. reminicent of early Peter Lorre, hopkin's descent into dementia is mesmerizing, and, as "Fats", his high pitched Brooklynese ventriloquism is absolutel... | positive |
1 | MAGIC ADS WERE SCARY! | Though the movie was frightening enough, it wasn't what I saw one night alone in a Poconos hotel room while my parents were out dining and dancing. What I witnessed was the thing that STILL freaks me out when I think about it. The Magic commercial. All it was was Fats the dummy reciting a demonic poem. I can still say ... | positive |
1 | Deliciously disturbing ....Highly Underestimated | FINALLY it comes out on dvd. This film is absolutely brilliant. Psychologically scarred me as a kid. I've never been able to think of ventriloquists or their wooden counterparts in quite the same way since. Still, it has left a lasting , unavoidable impression upon me. I have both dreaded and longed to see it again. Th... | positive |
1 | Magic | If you like Anthony Hopkins, this is one of his best. It is a bit "off" but it keeps you watching. A very different movie. Saw this years ago and remembered it. It never comes on cable. I think it is worth a look. | positive |
1 | Magic, on Blu Ray, starrring Anthony Hopkins and Ann Margret is a well crafted film. | I like this BluRay release of the Anthony Hopkins/Ann Margret film. The BluRay transfer was done very nicely and the extras were pretty good but could have been better.I really enjoyed the Dennis Alwood interview, Fats and Friends. I do wish there were new interviews with Anthony Hopkins and Ann Margret though. There i... | positive |
1 | A ventriloquists nightmare | Magic is a timeless suspense film starring Anthony Hopkinks, Ann Margret, and the always entertaining Burgess Meredith(better known as Mic from Rocky.) The story follows an up and coming ventriloquist "Corky" and his dummy "fats" on their near rise to stardom. This is a very entertaining yet creepy film where the dummy... | positive |
0 | great movie massacred by tape quality | One of my all time favorite movies has been edited for television recorded extended long play, and packaged as though nothing was done to it. don't buy this tape wait for the dvd version that should be coming out soon. | negative |
1 | Early Hopkins story still sends chills through viewers | "Magic" showed us early on what Anthony Hopkins can do. The dummy is not exactly a Charlie McCarthy and there are parts not for the squeamish. Ann Margret has a curious role in this tale, but she does it well. Along with "The Bunker" and his over-the-top Quasimodo in the "Hunchback of Notre Dame", the viewer gets an ex... | positive |
0 | The Only Dummy Is The Writer | "Magic" poses the question of whether ventriloquist Corky Withers (Anthony Hopkins) and his dummy Fats are two separate entities or Fats is just an extension of Corky's twisted psyche. Alas, the answer is telegraphed too soon so whatever suspense director Richard Attenborough is trying to muster is drained away. Anthon... | negative |
1 | "He's NO Dummy. . ." | Viewing "Magic" is when I first became aware of Anthony Hopkins as a brilliant actor. This movie coincided somewhat with his starring role in the highly praised QBVII, that was being aired on TV. I made a mental note to "watch this actor." I saw "Magic" at the Capital Plaza Cinema in Austin, Texas in the Seventies. One... | positive |
1 | Amazingly suspenseful psychological thriller | This story of a psychotic ventriloquist is truly frightening, especially as portrayed through the gifted Anthony Hopkins. Ann-Margret gives her best performance as his high-school sweetheart stuck in a bad marriage. Based on the novel, the plot is powerful and well-developed. One caution: This video is edited; with the... | positive |
1 | A truly great horror movie | I saw this film last night after refusing to see it for a while because of a fear of ventriloquism. What a great film! I sincerely believe that this is Anthony's Hopkins finest performance. His telepathic card scene with Ann Margaret is fantastic, he is just so intense. This is one of the most intelligent horror movies... | positive |
1 | Frightening movie with superb acting by Sir Hopkins | My recollection of the film -- I've only ordered it today (August 31, 1999) -- from my youth (when I was eight years old) is that of a genuinely frightening film which has a great deal of credibility to it. The dummy is seemingly real at all times, especially when it is killing some hapless victim. Hopkins acting is ph... | positive |
1 | classic | i got this for my dad. it is super creepy and worth a watch, but don't watch it in the dark. | positive |
1 | Psychological thriller! | This movie really scared me when it came out in theaters years ago. It is still pretty exciting and leaves you wondering if the guy is really crazy or his dummy is alive! | positive |
1 | A little more money than what I expected to spend on in. | This is a good movie. My husband enjoyed it. I wasn't too impressed with the price of the movie since it was an older film. | positive |
0 | "The Silence of the Dummies" | This is overall a real hoot! Anthony Hopkins is superb! "Fats" the dummy steals lots of the scenes.The question that crosses my mind is which is more frightening the Dummy or Ann Margarett trying to act!Burgess Meredith is great as the manager. One point of interest is the horrible score by Jerry Goldsmith. He throws i... | negative |
0 | Mauled again - killing bears to enrich himself | Jim Cole has been ticketed and banned at many National Parks for willing breaking the law and endangering, not only his life, but the lives of the bears. He was recently mauled at Yellowstone and his actions most likely will result in the death of the bear as he pursued and harrassed a mother bear protecting her cubs. ... | negative |
0 | Sorry Jim | As a former realtor, Mr. Cole owes the natural world a large debt, and believes he is doing good work. My opinion, based upon a life lived in the northern rockies, is that bears NEVER benefit from interactions with humans. The natural world is not there for us to enjoy, or understand, or study - it is simply there. If ... | negative |
1 | A revelation of life in small town America in early 1900s | Though a scholarly biography, the book reveals much more about life in a small mid-west America town at the turn of the century than many other biographies or novels. Well worth reading for an insight into "news" that didn't make most newspapers but which was true in revealing life, the book is nicely crafted and the a... | positive |
1 | Great biography of a very interesting journalist | This biography of Arthur Aull, a small-town journalist at the turn of the twentieth century, is a most fascinating read. The role of the small-town newspaper publisher carried much of the moral weight of towns like Lamar, Missouri, during the first half of the twentieth century before the era of instant news carried by... | positive |
0 | Interesting Subject; Poor Presentation | You'd be hard-pressed to tell a boring story about about a plucky country newspaper editor who had principles and stuck to 'em. But this author has done it. He says the book is an adaptation of his doctoral thesis. That fits. The book reads like a well-done, fully footnoted college paper, not like a dramatic novel. It ... | negative |
0 | Don't buy | The box looked used and it is obviously not new. I have tried to contact them by email and no response. Don't buy from them! | negative |
1 | Beautiful Pen and Fast Delivery. | The pen was shipped promptly. This is the classic Montblanc pen that everyone raves about. It is Black in color with Golden Trim. It holds it's own and I am thankful to my parents to gift this to me as a Graduation Present. Someday I plan on buying more of these pens from Amazon.The vendors at Amazon are amazing.
