Title: BORING!!!! There is not a choice for zero stars. Review: What happened to the ending? I expected more from Mr. Cook after his other successful stories. Although the information about food safety was very informative AND SCARY, this plot was boring and predictable. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: I could not get this to play at all Review: This product was totally useless. It would not work in the dvd player. I made over 20 attempts to clean the machine by inserting disk an dpressing play and eject and play. I repeatedly got this error message: 'This type of disc cannot be played. Please insert a different disc".I am very dissapointed. Now I have to look for info on how to return this item, pay postage and return it. Very annoyed it did not work. My dvd player works but I get this message sometimes on movies that have nothing wrong with them so I thought perhaps cleaning it would help. Other movies ,etc. do work, but this cleaning disk would not work at all. Nothing, nada, zip. No picture. No sound. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Needs some sharpening Review: There is a germ of a good book in here. It needs to be whittled down by 50% and the characters need more personality. It has some excitement in the trading scenes, but you have to slog through worthless stuff to get to them. For example, we go through a long, dull chapter describing a visit to the narrator's mum, hear a description of his father, his father's death, etc. and it really is all for naught. I hope his other books are better. Maybe if he read some Hammet or Hemmingway he can pick up some pointers on how to make the prose more efficient. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: It sucks Review: and that's pretty much all I have to say about that.It reminds me a lot of Cinderella (the Japanese Horror movie) except it lacks everything that made that movie great and worth watching.I admit I didn't finish watching this film it lost my interest and just seemed to bland. There's lots of other good Asian horror films out there but this one doesn't really stand out amongst them. Is the review positive or negative?
