Product review: Having read many IR books, I must say that I was intrigued by the way KLR brought the problem of both internal and external racism in the world. I was enjoying the plot of discrimination at the workplace and even the feelings that the main character had vis-a-vis her husband leaving her for a white woman. However, I felt that her love affair with Frank Coletti was way too rushed to believe that her feelings were genuine. The ending seemed to be very rushed and left me with a much unfulfilled feeling. The only reason I give this book 2 stars is because it builds up well. Other than that it's a big let down. Do not read this book unless you mind feeling frustrated at the end.

Review title: If you never read the book - three stars, if you read the book... Product review: zero stars.As a standalone B-movie, it's very mediocre, but watchable. Low expectations are richly rewarded here.If you read Wambaugh's book, you will loathe the movie because it betrays your hopes and expectations so badly. No wonder Wambaugh wanted to have his name removed from the credits. The movie tears all the flesh away from his excellent book and keeps just a few bones.If you have not read the book, but "kinda" liked the movie, read the book. You are in for a huge treat. If you read the book, but have not seen the movie, that's as far as you need go. Or read the book again.

Review title: I recommend it to all my friends Product review: Some reviewers classified this book as elitist, but I definately didn't get that vibe. After browsing numerous travel guides, many of which I DID find patronizing, this one was a complete breath of fresh air. Mostly, I found it to be full of practical, logical advice and encouraging sidenotes. I think it is probably best suited to my demographic (single, or at least family-less young people) but would also be great for retirees who always wanted to travel. That is not to say that I wouldn't recomend it to people with families, but I do think that the kind of travel it is suggesting might be a little disruptive for kids who have friends, school, and sports (you know, all those average kid activities that are so much fun and not very condusive to long term absences, etc). At any rate, I think that everyone should at least browse through its pages (reading straight through is helpful but not necessary--another feature I loved) and most people should own it.

Review title: A BOMB, figuratively and literally! Product review: The well-documented fact that the principal actors in this film eventually died of cancer affirms that this one was doomed from the start. Accepting Wayne and Hayward as Asians is more unbelievable as blue-eyed Burt Lancaster as "Geronimo".While "The Conqueror" does sport high production values, the absurdity of the casting makes it one of the looniest decisions ever to come from a major Hollywood studio.Ed Wood would've done better!
