Title: Dull, slow and lacking narrative drive Review: I found it hard to slog through this book, which kind of ambled around in exasperating curlicues. The writing was adequate, but it lacked narrative drive. It just never seemed to go anywhere. It wouldn't have been so irritating if the characters had been interesting, but there was no life in any of them (and some were downright incredible.) I did not understand the motivation of any of them. I was frustrated with the perennial backing & filling of the narrative, and even began to skip-read to keep moving forward. It starts picking up about two-thirds of the way through, but by that time, not a single character interested me enough to have made it worthwhile. If I had not enjoyed the Owen Archer series, I would have put this book down unfinished. Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?

Title: Mood oriented, old school dungeons and dragons module. Review: Boy, they don't make em' like this anymore. The golden years of the role-playing hobby that made parents cringe nationwide is at it's top form here. This adventure is from the English Dungeons and Dragons department and it delivers. It's full of great moody stuff as the party explores a haunted house on the cliffs above the fishing village of Saltmarsh. I must have played this thing 12 times over the period I've been in the game. The illustrations are top notch as well, giving the module a creepy feel. Oh if only I could go back to the early eighties! A great adventure module that holds up to this day! Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?

Title: You remind me of the babe.... Review: I first saw this movie when I was about eight-years-old. Now I'm 20 and it is stil one of my favorite movies. I recently bought the DVD from Amazon and have made a point to introduce it to all the children I baby-sit for and even some of my deprived college friends.(They have ALL loved it). Frankly, it's a film for "children" of all ages- one that parents will actually enjoy watching with their kids over and over again. The storyline is classic and the musical numbers, especially those featuring David Bowie, are wonderful (I still can recall all the words). Jennifer Connely is perfect as an ordinary teenager in extraordinary circumstances and nobody could have played "The Goblin King" like Bowie. What a wonderful, wonderful film!

Title: Madonna as a Yoga Instructor Sporting a British Accent = BAD Review: Now you'd think that by putting director John Schlesinger and Rupert Everett together something interesting would transpire--that is until you realize that Madonna's been added to the mix and therefore completely sinks an already vapid storyline even further. Unfortunately, it's not so bad that it's good (like "Showgirls")--it's just bad. Avoid this boring homophobic mess at all costs. Does this product review convey a negative or positive sentiment?
