Extreme Rules? No, It's Just Wrestling Done ECW Style by xxxxer Pros: An abundance of quality wrestling
Cons: The "new and improved" ECW is not quite the same... In 1992, Tod Gordon would found Eastern Championship Wrestling, an upstart wrestling promotion based in Philadelphia and aligned with the storied National Wrestling Alliance, or NWA. Following several years of putting on shows in a former bingo ...

How Do We Arm the Other 12? by Bounty628 Pros: Great acting and a sensational plot.
Cons: None. Some might have seen the tongue-in-cheek bumper sticker that reads, "Guns don't kill people, I kill people." There is something that oddly enough is quite profound in that statement since really it is the person with the gun in their hand that chooses to ...

Deadly rivalry in a Madrid department store by Ricardo_Ramos Pros: ending, Monica Cervera
Cons: tame and convoluted I was going to close out the month/year writing about yet another disappointing gay movie, "Bangkok Love Story," but could not find it. I don't know whether the DVD is not in the datbase or whether the search engine cannot find it -- the result for ...

Who Wants to Be a Slumdog Millionaire by DrFaustus Pros: vibrant, compelling filmmaking
Cons: a few logistical flaws in the film's framing story The "rags to riches" story is undoubtedly one of the oldest plot devices known to man. If we were to put together some sort of timeline, the origins of "rags to riches" could probably be traced back to just a few short weeks after the invention of cloth ...

An over-reaching profiteer of "socialism, African style" gets taken down -- way down by Stephen_Murray Pros: sartorial details
Cons: slow and far more bitter than comic or satiric (Obviously, the wrong image is here: there are no blondes in "Xala" and no speaking parts for the one white character who remains from the colonial era, but the product details for what shows up from searching "Xala" here are right.)"Xala" is a ...

The Incredible Hulk 2008 by yakkowarner Pros: Flows well, good special effects, plenty of action.
Cons: Defies laws of physics, no psychological depth. This is one of the first pair of movies self-produced by marvel studios (Iron Man being the other one.) I believe their next self-produced film will be in 2010. And while I loved Iron Man, I wasn't as pleased with The Incredible Hulk. But don't ...

1995 IWA Japan King of the Deathmatch Tournament: The One that Started it All by xxxxer Pros: The definitive DVD of the now infamous 1995 DeathMatch Tournament
Cons: Maybe too intense for mainstream wrestling fans Having been introduced to the world of so-called extreme wrestling circa 1994 by watching Extreme Championship Wrestling on Sports Channel Philadelphia, I would like to say that I am more or less a connoisseur of the more violent style of pro wrestling ...

Back when Howard Stern was relevant by Chad9976 Pros: Some funny and shocking moments
Cons: many jokes go way too far and become arbitrary gross-out and outlandish Howard Stern has declared himself the "King of All Media" because he knows how to get our attention - by making us wonder what he'll do next. He constantly says he is misunderstood and "Private Parts" is an attempt to show us the man behind the ...

Heath Ledger's Best Movie by sj1and0 Pros: Heath Ledger does a great job as the Joker.
Cons: none! I remember when the Dark Knight animated series came out. I was fascinated by the graphics. Then they came out with the movie. It took me a very long time to allow myself to finally watch it. But something told me that I should when a friend of mine ...

Luther, very inspiring and well worth it by kgetchel Pros: Everything was well done
Cons: A few historical inaccuracies that only a medieval historian would catch. Because “Luther” wasn’t long in the theaters or, for that fact in very many theaters, we didn’t get a chance to see it until it came out on DVD. It’s surprising because the all-star caliber of the cast (Jeff Fienes, Sir ...

Bottom Line: Jesus Does Not Approve of This Film by Bounty628 Pros: Effective for a few moments.
Cons: The message is shallow and can clearly be seen through. I guess a good thing to take away from the film What Would Jesus Buy is the understanding that at least we will not all have to see bumper stickers and rubber bracelets adorned with the question in our local convenience stores on sale for ...

Henry VIII in Never Land by catu11us Pros: Lush costuming and sets, as if good frills make a good show.
Cons: Good frills don't make a good show, and the rest is awful. Showtime’s obviously expensive production of “The Tudors” has got its first season into circulation as a set of DVDs. I have seen some advertising on this, and my first reaction was that any series portraying Henry VIII as a lean ...

A Sexy, True Story: How a Group of Undergrads Took Vegas for MILLION$ by kengland4 Pros: Gripping, edge-of-your-seat drama. Technically excellent. Great acting.
Cons: Framing the story in the scholarship interview detracts from the realism somewhat, & isn't necessary. INTRODUCTION"A spot opened up, and you seem a nice fit." "Jimmy got a job at Google." "If it pays so well, then why did he quit?" "I said 'Google,' not 'Sizzler.' " (Deadpanned by Spacey). ...

Join Lamb Chop, Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy for Chanukah and Passover by Staceys1 Pros: Lamb Chop, informative, fun songs about Chanukah and Passover.
Cons: Too long to hold young children's interest. As a child, Shari Lewis' Lamb Chop character was always one of my favorites. She was basically a sock puppet made to look like a little lamb, and though she tried to be very sweet and innocent, she often got herself into minor trouble. After ...
