Rated 4 Stars"NOT AS GOOD AS THE FIRST ONE..." 2008-06-01
I may be the only person who thinks the first one was much better. This sequel is not bad, but the U.S. Army intervention just gave it a Hollywood-feel (with lousy action scenes such as the helicopter massacre, and way much more blood) which you wouldn't expect after watching the first one, and in my opinion wasn't necessary. Other than that, I liked it. It was original how the virus came back, although the ending was a bit predictable, I swear I knew which city would be next. Anyway it leaves you wanting yet another sequel!

Rated 5 Stars"ONE OF THE BEST SUSPENSE MOVIES EVER!" 2008-06-01
I call it suspense because I don't think it was meant to be horror, or at least not the kind of horror Hollywood usually gives us (which I do not like at all, but unfortunately a lot of people were expecting). It is NOT about zombies, it is about people infected with a virus, so deadly and contagious it goes beyond control.

And I totally agree with another reviewer, what I loved about this movie is that it's something that could definitely happen, and that's what makes it terrifying (at least for me). If you pay attention to the first couple of minutes of the movie, it is very clear where the virus comes from (and that's why I am sure this could definitely happen if they keep doing stupid experiments on animals).

Anyway back to the movie! The acting is great, even though the actors are relatively unknown. It's one of those movies that has so much going on that it seems much longer than it actually is. If your brain cannot process a lot of information then you probably won't like it. But if you enjoy a more serious plot and psychological suspense instead of million-dollars-worth-of-destruction kind of action, then this is a great option!

Rated 5 Stars"Wonderful Camera!!!" 2008-05-16
After almost 4 years owning the P100, I decided it was time to get a new camera, mostly because my husband and I had been sharing it and sometimes we both need it. Also, I wanted something smaller that could easily fit any purse. I almost went with the W120 but to be honest I wasn't sure if I needed some of the fancy functions. Plus I got an awesome deal on the W55.

Anyway I was hoping the W55 would work as good as it looks, and I'm glad it does! So far I have no complaints, it has pretty much the same functions as the P100, and a much bigger screen which I love. Another review mentioned the buttons being too small and I have to agree, I usually push the playback button with my nail and not my fingertip.

I take most pictures with flash so I can't comment on the blurriness a lot of people talk about, but I don't think it's that bad, just a matter of finding the right setting and using a tripod if necessary. Just be careful when taking video, it will do it with the settings you last used for taking pictures (such as black & white). I am very happy with this camera and I am hoping it will last for many many years!

Rated 5 Stars"AMAZING LONG-LASTING BARGAIN !" 2007-12-30
I have had this iron for probably 4 years now and it still works perfectly! I don't use it too often but everytime I do I get a lot of compliments and people are surprised when I tell them I don't use any special products or a ridiculously expensive iron!

I live in a very humid place and I can be outdoors for hours without worrying about my hair getting ruined after an hour (like with the old-fashioned irons). I have considered getting a CHI but I am wondering if I even need it, because this one does such a good job on my long, thick, wavy hair. I can't review other brands because this was the second iron I ever bought (even then it was a bargain probably $29.99) but I definitely recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money but wants to be happy with the results!

Rated 2 Stars"DISAPPOINTING..." 2006-08-24
ok first of all, i'll separate the fact that these guys were complete idiots to throw kelli out after the major success they had with becoming x (let's face it, she WAS the band). and i'll always emphasize on the fact that they should've at least changed their name instead of pretending she was never an important part of it.

and before anyone clicks on the "not helpful" button just because they still like the band, i will explain objectively why this album was diappointing for me...

i decided to give both their albums a try, thinking "well, they were responsible for the musical part the whole time after all"... and although "bloodsport" does have some awesome songs like "blue movie" that simply grew on me, i couldn't help but get bored by this one. there is not one single song that catches my attention even though i've heard it enough.

i guess maybe if bloodsport was better the next one will be even better (if there IS a next one)!

Rated 5 Stars"AWESOME DEBUT!" 2006-08-24
this was not the first cd i heard from them and i couldn't imagine someting as good as "i'm an elastic firecracker" but now i understand what all the fuss is about!

i can't say if it's better or not but it's definitely an outstanding cd. this band always had a very original sound and even nowadays i listen to it frequently cause it simply makes me happy =)

Rated 5 Stars"AMAZING!" 2006-02-21
After hearing "Hide U" a couple of years ago, I must confess I wasn't really tempted to listen to the rest of the CD. But then a friend told me she was curious after listening to a bunch of breath-taking remixes from DJs like Satoshi ("Hungry", check it out if you have the chance). So I got it from Amazon as a gift for her, and of course I could't resist giving it a try. OMG I was shocked since the very first time I played it.

It has a blend of different genres, so don't waste your time trying to figure out whether it's D&B or not. Just enjoy it! Each song has astonishing vocals which cannot be compared to any other singer (ok, some songs may remind you of EBTG but that's it!) Needless to say, I got a copy for myself and I'll get Kokopelli wishing it is as good as this =)

Rated 5 Stars"Still one of my favorites..." 2004-12-01
i remember watching their videos on mtv (before it started to suck), i just had to buy the album! and believe me after almost ten years i can still listen to it and i consider it one of my favorites... there is not one single song you have to skip, and it ranges just like mood swings...

by the time her videos came out this girl won my respect, but it wasn't until recently that i bought it and i am impressed by its quality! everything: the music, her voice... check out "another world", i listen to it over and over and over, followed by "fingertips", another great song with a touch of bossa nova...

being a devoted fan of trip-hop, i could not hesitate to get this album and i must say it didn't disappoint me at all! it does get slower on the second half but that doesn't interfere with its quality... it's great, even my mom likes it!

Rated 5 Stars"weak?? not at all!" 2004-07-11
ok let's admit it: if it wasn't for "i got a girl" many of us would've never known this band! and this is just one of the reasons why this cd is awesome...

after years and years listening to it, you'll even end up skipping that song, believe me! definitely one of the best cds of the 90's

my personal favorites are "piranha", "trip along", "step behind" and "prick", but of course this doesn't mean the rest of the songs are not good enough!

Rated 5 Stars"ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS!!" 2004-06-29
i heard this band since they came out, but quite honestly i never intended to get the cd... but then i heard "the red" and saw the "send the pain below" video and i figured i had to get it immediately! i can listen to it every single day and not get tired of it...

now i'm considering getting their first album, although i know this one is much more mature (both lyrically and musically speaking)... this guy's voice can almost make you feel what he feels!

despite being a devoted tool fan, i would have never even thought of comparing both bands... mhh ok maybe the voices sound a bit alike, but that's it!

the best songs in my opinion are "forfeit", "an evening with el diablo" and of course "send the pain below" and "the red".

Rated 5 Stars"GREAT BAND , GREAT CD" 2004-06-10
this is a band you either love or hate. i'd always admired them for their originality although i wasn't a big fan... the music on this cd hasn't changed much from the other ones, yet it has something new and more addictive i can't explain! not to mention the videos are better than ever, "special needs" is the most beautiful video i've seen in years...
