Nip/Tuck - The Complete First Season

by vdriftwoodNew Member
Pros: Addictive, great acting, interesting, and good storyline.
Cons: Not for children. Involves nudity and vulgar language.  Adult content. Very graphic.
Imagine watching a show and not being able to go to sleep because you are so wrapped up in it.  This is exactly what happened to me when I first started watching Nip/Tuck.  Even if the medical field is not an interest of some people they will ...

Secret
A Great Introduction To Law Of Attraction Principle
by pyewackete
Pros: A great introduction to the whole Law of Attraction principles.
Cons: There's a lot more study involved with the LOA principles

Pros: Warm, pleasant film about growing up featuring four great actresses.
Cons: Not quite as good as the first film.
I was a huge fan of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and although this sequel doesn't quite match the magic of the first film, it still is very satisfying, warm, and touching.The films are based off the popular young adult novels of the same ...

Pros: Lavish, colorful and occasionally exciting.
Cons: Loooonnnngggg;  over-acting on the part of Ustinov;  Taylor horribly miscast.
I probably saw Quo Vadis upon its initial release, but I would have been only 6 or 7 years old at the time, and most likely would have fallen asleep throughout most of the first half of the film.  I'd like to say that I was ...

Pros: It only lasts 117 minutes
Cons: Not much truth
300 (2006) As a history buff I had to finally see 300 and once I did I had mixed feelings. The movie was quite well made visually, and about 90% of it was computer generated.  The story, acting, and music was very questionable ...

  Good potential story line, but it took a sloppy trun for the worse.  It seems like someone just wanted to make a movie with a mysterious sex club, so they took a couple of known actors (Ewan McGregor & Hugh Jackman) and threw ...
