Q: Title: Not the true story... Review: When this movie was first released, due to the outcry from the feminist and art history communities, Miramax had to remove their claim that it was "the true story of the first female painter in art history." Actually, it is practically a complete inversion of Artemisia Gentileschi's real story...she was in fact raped by Tassi (the 'love interest' in the movie) and maintained her stand *against* him even under torture (as is documented in the records of the trial). The film romanticizes and sexualizes her and their relationship to an almost soft-porn level while giving hardly any screen time to her actual work and using her paintings out of context...which is a shame, because the real story of this remarkable woman would have been just as dramatic if not more so.

Q: Title: Fairly Effective In Reducing SPAM Review: No program is going to be 100% effective in eliminating SPAM as spammers are continually coming up with ways to get around filters and the like. That being said, this is a fairly good product. After a few days of tweaking, it's been over 75% effective in reducing the amount of SPAM in my inbox. I agree with the previous reviewer in that the main drawbacks are that it doesn't integrate with your email program (I use Outlook Express) and that it defaults to viewing the killed email rather than the live email upon launching the program. So far it has been 100% effective in getting rid of the sex related SPAM and its filters have effectively removed SPAM that I know I could not have filtered myself using the message rules in Outlook Express. Overall, I am happy with my purchase. Is the review positive or negative?

Q: Title: Bagging' Garbage Review: This is the bands 3rd album, and it has been a long wait for garbage fans around the world, but good things come to those who wait.And this cd is beyond good.Very different from traditional Garbage, but isn't that one of the reasons we love this band. It's very diverse, its like they took elements from every possible kind of music style there is and combined it into a blender and came out with this new cd."Shut your mouth" is a great opened and a rocker, what better way to begin listenign to a cd than a song that just makes you wnat to rage out a lil bit.Then its off to their first single "Androgyny" and its a cute song.I could go on to every single song and describe it to the feeling i get form it, but thats no fun.All i can say is that it's an emotional rollercoaster ride.There is so much feeling in this cd, and Ms. Manson, well her voice it got stronger.Best song on the cd is "Nobody Loves You"I give it 5/5 stars its truly a wonderful cd well worth the wait.

Q: Title: Worthless, cost more to ship it back than it's worth!!!! Review: Do Not Buy This Item.......After slicing two chicken fillets and cleaning the blades I tried to slice a white potato, forget that!!!!!! After that event I reached for an onion, it would do that but not with any enthusiasm!!!!!!I've used electric knives that would practically cut through bone.....this, I doubt, would cut butter but you could force the blade thought it if you warmed the butter in the microwave first!!!!!!!!This is the first item, of hundreds purchased from Amazon, that I have ever returned. Shame on Amazon for allowing such a worthless piece of equipment space in it's generally outstanding inventory!Really Disappointed, can you tell. Is the review positive or negative?
