Super review...I liked Brad Pitt though..I thought the comedy act was more effective than if he had played it straight...also, perhaps the ridiculous accent was meant not only to typify him as an Everyman American but also to avoid unconditional validation of America by subtly poking fun at it...Mic Read More...

I have just received a message in my inbox from someone who seems to be the resort owner telling me that Sea Princess does not need to employ anybody like myself and it's 'sad and unfortunate that agents like (me) are there to take undue advantage'. Ms Reviewer & your fellow hotel hosts - please und Read More...
'We have stopped business with them' - ergo, you are employed by the resort? That really defeats the entire purpose of a review which, by definition, can only be undertaken by somebody on the outside looking in. So, while what you say might be true, your review lacks credibility. Sadly for you.

The H2G2 movie sucks. Jules Verne was ahead of his time. But his fiction was validated after the fact of scientific advancement - i.e the invention of the submarine took him into the annals of science, rather than simply science fiction. However, before the fact, his fiction would have been filed un Read More...
Thanks much. This is my favourite among all straight literature. If Harper Lee hadnt existed she would have had to be invented. I'm glad she never wrote another book because it would be a shame for Mockingbird to be subjected to criticism by comparison as it would inevitably have been
How indeed. I suspect if I were to write a proper review of H2G2 it would rival the trilogy in length
No certainly it's quite impossible for any movie to be an exact rendition of the source book. I was bewildered by both the bits they left in and also the bits they left out. The book has a unique position in the series as its sets up the climax, the film seemed to be essentially in limbo since it ha Read More...

Fiction is called fiction precisely because it's not real. Not sure whether you actually understand the concept of story, which is what all 7 Harry Potter books are. You seem to view the series as simply a symptom of consumerism - that is a failure on your part, not on the part of the books. I hated Read More...

Yup I agree...sorry CC but you're just telling us what the story is...that's what people read the book for...you need to tell us what you liked about the book and why
Commented on pranav.koli's review
I like that your review is objective - which is more than I can say for most of the others which arent reviews at all, just bits of the plot and effusions of how much they loved it without saying why. Personally I hated the book and felt pretty much as betrayed by the terrible writing as Voldemort m Read More...

This wasnt really a review. Reviews contain analysis. Your's doesnt - it simply tells part of the story, which is what one reads the book for
