Ques:Title: David Mamet chews the screen..... Review: with over wrought dialogue and ridiculous characters - over blown, over directed, and over written to the extreme! This is what happens when a mediocre playwright gets a camera and a big budget - not worth your attention - what a waste! Jim Jarmusch's Ghost Dog is way better in every way - now there is a filmmaker! Is the review positive or negative?

Ans:Negative

Ques:Title: does a terrible job with TV show DVDs Review: When I am playing non-film content, i.e. TV Shows or hybrid content (interlaced + film), the video on the screen will flicker between most quick scene changes. I noticed it alot on "The Shield - Seasons 1 and 2" and on DVDs burned from Tivo content.I know its not a bad player because I have 2 of these each bought at different times and they both have this exact same problem. I have a feeling that it has a hard time with interlaced content, since all hollywood movies (film, 24fps) plays just perfect.I could not find any settings on the player to help alleviate the problem. I am using the S-Video output. I have since switched to the new Philips 642 and this DVD player plays everything great, even divx discs.NOTE: The flicker I mentioned was caused by an incorrect setting. If you set the film mode correctly then it plays fine. So in retroscpect I would give this player a 4 star rating. Is the review positive or negative?

Ques:Title: Cross Eyed Christians Review: God has once again given Mahaney the gift to properly exhort the Christian to do everything in life in view of the Cross of Christ. If your not a Cross Eyed Christian, you may not be a Christian at all. This book will help develop the Cross-Eyed mentality we all need to live out the profession of our lips.

Ques:Title: Poor fit Review: Item was a poor fit and consequently I had to return it.Would NEVER purchase anything from this supplier again.They charged an exorbitant 20% "restocking fee" for an item that weighed mere ounces and was returned in pristine condition.Additionally they added a charge for shipping that was originally "free".Hardly the consumer friendly attitude I've come to enjoy with Amazon.
