Attention All Men: Beware of the Vagina Dentata-- It bites! by jbrd Pros:
A very twisted film that has men, including me, scared to go near a vagina. Cons: It will definitely offend those who are easily offended, but oh well, don't watch it! Oh man! I have so many words and images *shudder* that pop in my head when I think about <i>Teeth</i>. I knew what I was getting myself into before I had bought Teeth, but it just blew my expectations to pieces! It went far beyond what I was ...

Curious George Plays Baseball || Million dollar bonus monkey... by sleeper54 Pros: Follows the Curious George mold, no big surprises here.
Cons: Not a high re-read potential. No 'lessons learned' here. ...It is hard to imagine the rich literary legacy of Curious George was almost silenced by jackbooted Nazis nearly seventy years ago. As married German Jews living in Paris in the years prior to WWII, Hans Augusto (H. A.) and Margret Rey escaped ...

Young Scientists Picture Science by pestyside Pros: Use of digital cameras in teaching pre-school science; lessons, layout
Cons: None Three to six year olds are natural scientists and anyone who teaches this age need not be told. Early childhood science specialists have made this statement for years; curiosity might be greatest at these ages than at any other time in a person's ...

Stir of Echoes - A Shirtless Kevin Bacon Faces The Supernatural by dragonfire88 Pros: Bacon and rest of cast. Very well done, entertaining thriller.
Cons: Under appreciated. Might be too slow for some. With some movies, I am not interested in seeing them for some reason and then I later change my mind. Stir of Echoes was one of those movies for me.Tom Witzky was a regular guy with a wife and young son, though he wasn't ...

They’re Back! (The Return of Sherlock Holmes) by busby777 Pros: acting, script, visuals, everything, some wonderful guest stars

Simply missing something for me by noktorn Pros: Well written and ferociously played...
Cons: ...but I just can't get into it. This is a Gorgoroth release I have more than a little trouble really getting into; for some reason it feels more primitive than the previous two albums, despite being musically and technically more complex in many ways. In yet another step away from ...

Very excellent black metal by noktorn Pros: Great writing, production, everything.
Cons: N/A My opinion of Gorgoroth's first album is that it's essentially unbeatable perfection, but having acquired 'Antichrist', I have to say that their sophomore release honestly gives that seminal debut a legitimate run for its money. The second release ...

"Unplugged" Is A 4.5 Star Gem, Delivered with More Matured Vocals, Passion, Finesse And Class. by gds-777 Pros: Her vocals are far more mature and the reduced arrangements play to the bands talents.
Cons: Adam Levine's nasal tone did not blend well with Alicia's voice. I bought this CD because for me Alicia Keys is the best new artist to hit the airwaves since the "Police" in the late 1970's. Alicia's CD is a fine gem, here the slightly scaled back sound allows her vocals to shine. She proves what a fine ...

Has nothing at all to do with The Groove Collective by noktorn Pros: Well composed, played, and produced death metal.
Cons: Relatively unremarkable. Oppressor was a third-string death metal band that attained very (very, very) mild popularity in the mid-'90s before dissolving to the disappointment of about a dozen people. They're not amazing but in some ways they're a rather interesting footnote in ...

No bite to this story by sussmanbern Pros: Good acting and production values.
Cons: It cannot decide if it's comedy or horror. VAMPIRE'S KISS (1989) got favorable reviews from others but not from me. Maybe I'm too picky.This is a vampire movie but cannot decide whether it's a comedy or a thriller. There have been (a few) vampire comedies that were successes -- "Dracula - ...

Reviewing: "Hunting The American Terrorist" by kevintipple Pros: Well written detailed account...

Unlike traditional terrorists who operate in cells and therefore by sheer numbers could make mistakes leading to their capture, the ...

Diary of an Inventor by msiduri Pros: Lots of excitement, comic relief
Cons: Unrealistic elements, transparent elements Written in 1933 by Mildred Wirt and Harriet S. Adams (using the pen name Carolyn Keene), this is the seventh in the original Nancy Drew series, which ran from 1930 to 1979. It seems to have been revised in 1962. Nancy is an amateur sleuth, forever 18, ...

Bought it as a bargain book, but fell in love by chiliqueen Pros: Unique blend of two distinct cultures, Spanish used throughout

Everything But The Coda?! Why To Avoid "Bablyon 5" Seasons 1-4! by wlswarts Pros: Gets consistently better, Story continues to develop, Abandons bottle episodes for strong serialization.
Cons: Packaging, Early bottle episodes, Incomplete stories I have a pretty tremendous respect for the work of J. Michael Straczynski, at least when it comes to "Babylon 5." Straczynski and his creative team sought to put a novel on television. Over five years, they intended to tell one whole story as ...

Yes, It Might Be As Bad As U2 Gets: "Pop" Doesn't. by wlswarts Pros: Moments of musical intrigue, Three songs
Cons: Generally lousy lyrics, Uninspired music, Overproduced lyrics Often, I advocate albums where the best tracks do not appear on "Best Of" albums that a band might have produced. So, if an album has truly wonderful tracks that were never singles or would not appear on a "Greatest Hits" album, I will often make ...

Outkast's Revolver. Yes it is. by jeff_wilder78 Pros: The innovation, the diversity, the emotion.

Like the Fab Four, Andre Benjamin and Antwan Patton are not content to simply keep producing straightforward stuff for the masses for their whole ...

Excellent Horror for a first time author by Ravenskya Pros: Easy to read, fun from beginning to end, minimal nudity
Cons: Some won't care for the profanity, gorehounds may be disappointed Though this book is almost 500 pages, don't let that prevent you from reading it. There is a lot of space and the font is large. If this had been printed by most of the mass market crew this book would probably be in the 330-350 page range. Beyond ...

Left Standing at the Altar: Brides of the Impaler by Mike_Bracken Pros: Great climax, interesting use of the historical Vlad the Impaler.
Cons: Lacks narrative focus and feels artificially padded for length.

I've no ...
