Q: Title: Public beatings(whippings) as a way of discipline???? Review: I can get behind a spanking every now and then, no pun intended, but this was a bit much. Every time I thought I was developing an understanding/liking of the protagonist, Lord Jeoffrey, he did something bordering on cruelty. In the end, I did not like him, nor did I like the female lead character. I cannot call Lady Rosalind a heroine, because she was not. She is rescued from the dungeon, because she says that she can pay him (Lord Jeoffrey), otherwise he would have left her to rot, be raped, etc. What hero does that? When he finds out that she lied, he beats her-spanking is not what happened!-and then he keeps her for a leman, and servant. What ensues is an abusive relationship.This was a decidedly poor portrayal of women, and there was nothing I could ascertain, that would make it worthy of recommending for others to read. Is the review positive or negative?
A: Negative


Q: Title: extremely under-rated... somewhat violent Review: A very well crafted movie, with so many parallels to the spiritual life, especially the priesthood. I was particularly struck by its romantic view of an idealized lost culture, juxtaposed against modern industry and greedy politicians, which served as a warning against the dangers of Utilitarianism (which pope John Paul II spent so much time speaking out against in his writings). Is the review positive or negative?
A: Positive


Q: Title: Not USB 2.0 compliant Review: I bought this to test if I can manually switch between webcams using Skype.Ad copy from this dealer didn't specify what version USB it would work with, no wonder...in tiny type on the item packaging, it it ONLY compliant with USB 1.0 and 1.1, not 2.0 So it only crashed Skype in testing.This item is very ancient old stock in vintage iMac bondi blue, and for modern needs is pretty worthless. I'll be returning it.They should post actual specs on their online ads. Bad company! Is the review positive or negative?
A: Negative


Q: Title: Shower toy Review: This toy wasn't what I expected. My son doesn't really use it because it is to hard for him to pump but when I pump it he loves it. It would have been better if the toy it self has an on or off button. Is the review positive or negative?
