Review title: Disappointing Product review: If I had known how anticlimactically this book would end, I wouldn't have wasted any time on reading it. I was hoping to learn how the author discovered that her religion was based on a false foundation and what effects that discovery had on her. Instead it turns out that she ran out of passion for her hardworking and apparently very decent husband and decided to divorce him, after letting him put her through seven years of school. In order to reconcile this decision with her conscience, she had to dump "God" too. A more feeble reason for giving up a religion that has been the framework of one's life for twenty years can hardly be imagined.My other sentiments concerning this book have already been ably expressed by other reviewers, and I should perhaps add that I am an atheist.

Review title: Kodak has terrible customer service Product review: I bought a high end Kodak camera a little over a year ago. The shutter ended up getting stuck and not opening. I called in to get this resolved and they charged me 1/2 the price of a new camera to get the shutter fixed. I went as far as to talk to a supervisor who explained that Kodak digital cameras were not designed to last over 5 years. I was in shock. She said that there were too many little pieces that could break (the shutter???) and they weren't meant to last like a regular camera. I would highly recommend stearing away from Kodak. The shutter not working sounds like a defect. Highly disappointing for a big name like Kodak.

Review title: I was satisfied Product review: I got this book as a hand-me-down a few months ago, so I speak as somebody who got it for free. The content in the book covers how to shoot video in 24P, so it can be easily converted to film. Lighting and sound are important for this. We need to understand that making video look like film is very difficult, this book gives some details of things to do and things to avoid to help assist achieving the "look." I thought it did a great job at describing techniques that will help get the film look from video. Truth is, unless you have a 24P camcorder in your possession, this book is of little use. But, if you do have one, this book will help you utilize the option so it will enhance your chances of getting the film look. Plain and simple.If you already know Cinematography, and you think you may need to convert your video to film down the road, this is the book for you. Even if you just want a "better" looking movie, let this book tell you what types of lighting and equipment will help.

Review title: Very Disappointing Product review: Wow. What a let down. After hearing so many people saying how much they thought this was funny and great, I looked forward to seeing this movie. I saw it last night and almost fell asleep. I think I laughed once throughout the whole movie. I love Kevin James and he's always funny in the King of Queens, but this wasn't the way he should have broken out into film. Will Smith was way too smooth and Amber Valeta should stick to modeling while she still has half her looks. Even if this was truely funny, all the funny parts have been shown on TV Trailers for so long, that the semi-good parts weren't new to me. I'm sorry to disagree with you all, - this was a big waste of time.
