2.0 out of 5 stars Boring, 19 April 2011
This review is from: Ghost Machine [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Boring plot, poor characters and lame action. I loved it!!

No I didn't really, it wasn't a complete loss but there are thousands of better action thrillers out there.
Worth a rental if you are desperate, otherwise catch it at 2am on some strange freeview channel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Genius comedy, 19 April 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Classic comedy from the genius Monty Python team...what's not to like?

There's a reason Python has been loved all over the world for decades, listen to this and you'll find out why.

5.0 out of 5 stars Flawless!, 13 Mar 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
I think that word sums it up nicely. Stick thoson your PC and you can make more less whatever DVD or Blu-Ray you like out of those home movies. If like me you have hundreds of megabytes of family film then this is by far the best way to produce movie discs.

The interface as ever with Nero can take a minute or two to get used to, and if this is your first time with Nero I suggest reading the instructions or even better visit the varoius online sources that other uses often use to post hints and tips.

The quality of the finished discs is largely up to you, but Nero does it's best to help the user make the most of it.
Another great Nero title.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nasty and pointless..., 13 Mar 2011
This review is from: I Spit On Your Grave [DVD] (DVD)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
...unless you like this sort of thing? The original version was pretty bad, exploitation cinema that didn't really have any message other than to repulse the viewer and this remake follows the same theme.

You should know of course the violence is disturbing in the the extreme but in the right context it could be forgiven. Here however the filmkers are really just tapping into the sort of market that enjoys watching people tortured and killed for that gross out factor. Hardly worth the time and effort since the dire SAW movies have done it to death.

Production values are high but that is all I'm giving the film 2 stars for, and that is generous (if you are a torture freak then add another star).

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, 24 Feb 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Or so I'm told by my sister that has been using these for a couple of months now. My wife has als tried them out in my presense and we were both surprised at what a huge difference there is between these and other similar products.

I don't know what it is Babyliss have going for them but they are consistently beating all competition when it comes to hair styling. I also use a Babyliss trimmer for my facial hair it is great.

The crimper works as you'd expect, but I do like the design over other brands as it seems to me the build quality and ergonomics are a step ahead of the rest.
Great item once again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, 24 Feb 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
I really can't praise these enough, they are great. Not for me of course, but when toilet training a three year old boy you begin to appreciate a good water proof bet mat.

We only use Pampers nappies as they seem to absorb the most liquid, and this helps avoid nappy rash which my son is particularly prone to. The bed mats work brilliantly, the mattress is always dry even if his PJ's and bed covers are not!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, 17 Feb 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Hassle free straight hair, easy to use, fairly cheap and great build quality. What are you waiting for?

I've tried countless hair straighteners, curlers, etc, and by far Babyliss are the best in all areas. Not to say there aren't other great brands but you know with Babyliss you won't go far wrong.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!!, 27 Jan 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
I've tried a few Samsung memory cards of various sizes and had not trouble with them, and the same goes for this latest 8GB SD card.
I currently use it in a camcorder and have no problems with lost data or slow read times.

Another great memory card, build quality is top notch and it is not over priced.

3.0 out of 5 stars Forget the sitcom..., 18 Jan 2011
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
.. Lee Macj IS a funny guy! I know his sitcom is dire, but it is for the early evening BBC 1 slot so you can underatand why it is so lame.
This is the real Lee Mack, live and very funny.
He's not the best stand up ever, perhaps a little too rehearsed for some but I prefer this to Peter Kaye or Michael McIntyre. Check it out and I think you will be impressed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not one star, NO stars., 30 Dec 2010
Honeslty, the worst film I have ever seen, and the only children's film I've sat through with no jokes whatsoever.

German writers, bored British voice cast, terrible character design and animation, a complete disaster. If you subject your kids to this then I hope they forgive you one day.
