Title: Very good thriller Review: This thriller builds suspense so cleverly that even its most innocent scenes come to portend peril. Of course, any movie set in Siberia may do that for me, especially when it offers the possibility of freezing to death in the snow-covered expanses through which a couple of American kids and their rather dodgy compartment-mates are traveling. Particularly effective is the contrast between the icy vastness outside the train and the sweaty crowdedness inside among the vodka-swigging natives. The fact that most of the Russian characters speak no English leaves the protagonists and the viewer with few verbal clues as to the true intentions of the Russians, thereby heightening our uncertainty as to who's friendly and who's not.

Title: Elegant yet accessible Review: Sue Ellen Thompson's poetry is elegant yet accessible. She uses rhyme and fixed stanzaic patterns in a subtle and graceful way, but the real interest of her poems lies in the characters she creates: the teenage daughter, the distant husband, the aging parents, the old loves and lovers.... This poet has a restrained passion that I find very moving. Is this product review negative?

Title: boooooooooooooring Review: The book was full of errors. For instance, the Air Force does not have "corporals." In fact, it hasn't had them since WWII!!! I also found the book to be exceedingly tedious. Clancy reminds me of writers of the late 19th Century, who were paid for the number of words in their text and not for the content. Clancy says in 10 pages, what can be said in one. It is easy to lose the flow of the plot as the reader is lost in the mundaness of the techno-facts. Lastly, as a military veteran, I find it pathetic for Tom Clancy to wear the bomber jackets and military hats on the jackets of his books. He comes across as a wannabe. Well, if he wanted to serve so much, maybe he shouldn't have avoided military service during the Vietnam War. Is this product review negative?
