Epinions Recent Reviews for JEF24

This is a surprisingly decent movie.

Thu, 21 Dec 2000 11:45:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I have to feel bad for the actors in this movie. Word of mouth destroyed this movie at the box office and I really believe that it was unfounded. The movie was a ton better than I expected because of the bad things I had heard. Don't believe the rumors,...

I Don't Like Him......But My Kid Loves Him!

Sun, 3 Dec 2000 11:17:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - It is sad but true. I hate Barney and it is pure torture for me to watch his show for a half hour at a time. Because I am "Mr. Responsible Dad", I go ahead and suffer through for my son.

Before my son was even born, I was telling...

Logitech Wheel Mouse: The Only Kind Of Mouse To Have In Your House.

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 13:00:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - Between my wife and I, we manage to stay on our computer 16 hours a day I bet. That causes us to have lots of problems with our computer's mice. We end up buying a new one every two or three months. We always stay cheap and never pay more than $30 for a...

X-Cellent Start To Many Sequels!

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 12:19:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - If you aren't a fan of the X-men comic or the cartoons on Fox, don't worry the movie is self explanatory. You don't need extensive X-men knowledge to understand anything about this movie. This movie does an awesome job of carrying itself.

Where Were All The Battle Scenes?

Tue, 28 Nov 2000 09:00:37 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - With a title such as Gladiator, you would expect a movie filled with lions, tigers and man against man battles. Gladiator does not deliver these goods. The trailers for this movie were misleading. Don't get me wrong, there are some fight scenes but they...

Just Another Dumb Sequel.

Sat, 18 Nov 2000 09:02:59 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I tried to watch this movie with an open mind. I didn't really like the first Mission Impossible all that much, so I wasn't expecting a whole lot from the sequel. Well, open minded or not, MI2 was everything I figured it was. I heard critics and regular...

Entertaining and Original !

Thu, 9 Nov 2000 08:01:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - Whenever I rent a movie that I don't know much about, I try to stay open minded and not raise my expectations to high. That was the way I approached Frequency and I was definitely not disappointed. I had a choice between Frequency and Mission Impossible...

There is nothing punishing about this album.

Sat, 4 Nov 2000 11:40:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - If you are a heavy metal fan and have never listened to Megadeth then this album is a must. This truly is a Greatest Hits package. The songlist from this album definitely includes some of their best songs ever.

When I first found out that...

When Did I Become Michael Jordan?

Sat, 4 Nov 2000 10:29:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I couldn't believe how easy it was to learn to play this game. That is a huge compliment coming from me considering that playing any game is usually hard for me. I am intimidated by a controller that has more than 2 buttons.

The Braveheart of the American Revolution

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 22:07:33 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - When a movie's plot is the American Revolution and it opens in theaters on Independence Day, you would expect it to break box office records. The Patriot was very incapable of this feat and was beat out in its opening weekend by The Perfect Storm. That...

I hope you didn't want clean floors!

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 11:35:24 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I always thought Dirt Devil was supposed to be top of the line for vacuums. I was sadly mistaken. I purchased my Dirt Devil Swivel Glide unit from a Lowe's for a respectable price of $110.00. I think that seems like a good price, as long as I get a good...

Philips 27" Television TP2781C: Philips makes a great TV.

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 10:38:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I have owned my Philips/Magnavox TV for 3 years and I am still satisfied with it. I purchased the TV at a Sam's Club 3 years ago for less than $300.00. That was a bargain!

The TV is a 27", color, with PIP and several other nice features...

Do not use in your vehicle!

Sun, 22 Oct 2000 07:49:46 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - The model I actually own is the E-406CK. This is a model that doesn't include a remote control but otherwise is exactly like the E-405.

I bought this portable CD player with the sole purpose of using it in my car which does not have a CD...

To Infinity and Beyond!

Sat, 21 Oct 2000 20:32:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - What a sequel! If I ever do a list of best sequels of all time this movie is going towards the top. I usually can't sit through a whole children's movie but this one kept my interest the whole time. Plus I can't complain about any movie that can keep my...

Overlook the name and give them a chance!

Sat, 21 Oct 2000 09:12:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I was first turned on to Megadeth when I was about 14 years old. The first time I heard Peace Sells... I was hooked. I have every Megadeth album to date and this is the best of them all. They are all excellent albums but Youthanasia stands tall among...

A perfect bedroom TV set.

Sat, 21 Oct 2000 07:39:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - Did you know that Sharp is owned by Panasonic? Yes it's true. I work at the Panasonic CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) factory in Ohio. Panasonic makes and distributes TV picture tubes to everybody except Sony.

I bought my Sharp 13inch TV/VCR combo...

This movie is not as bad as you'd think.

Sat, 21 Oct 2000 06:40:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I was under the impression that this movie was going to be terrible. It was almost straight to video and didn't do well in the theaters. Don't be fooled by that. This movie is actually rather good. There is a fair amount of action and the plot is...

I Can Drink This All Night!

Fri, 20 Oct 2000 10:36:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I have never written a beer review before. Since I am going to attempt this, I am choosing my favorite beer of them all, Bud Light.

I am a true beer drinker. I usually have anywhere from 2 a day to a 12 pack. I have to have my beer every day,...

Why Didn't I Go See This At The Theater?

Tue, 17 Oct 2000 19:43:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - If you are reading this review in order to determine whether or not to rent this movie, I will say right now that I recommend that you do. I regret not having seen this movie on the big screen. I think the theatrical atmosphere would have made the movie...

Yahoo! Fantasy Football: I love Fantasy Football, But This...

Thu, 12 Oct 2000 09:51:58 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - This is my first experience with online fantasy sports and so far Yahoo! has been the least impressive.

I play in Yahoo Sports Fantasy Football and in AOL FFL. AOL is far superior in quality. Yahoo's setup is quite complicated and not that...

Look Beyond The Goofy Title!

Thu, 12 Oct 2000 09:25:59 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - They should have called this movie East Meets West. That's what it is essentially.

Jackie Chan plays Chon Wang, a Chinese Imperial Guard who is bound by duty to protect the Emperor's daughter. When the Emperor's daughter, Princess Pei Pei...

You won't just get a steak, you will get the whole cow!

Mon, 9 Oct 2000 09:39:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - There are very few steakhouses that should be using that title. A steakhouse by my definition should be a restaurant that specializes in steaks. Lonestar is one of the few so called steakhouses that actually deserves that title.

If you have...

See "Get Carter" and you might want to "Get Your Money Back!

Sun, 8 Oct 2000 10:02:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - It was a cold and rainy Saturday afternoon so I decided to go see a movie. It was a spur of the moment decision so I had not properly prepared and checked my local listings for show times. Once I arrived at the theater, the only movie that was starting...

Papa Roach Rocks!

Sat, 7 Oct 2000 15:08:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - This is the best album of the year! Every song on this CD is smoking. I actually came upon this album through a little bit of good luck. I had never heard of Papa Roach. I was browsing through CD's looking for anything by the group Prong. I couldn't find...

They call those things steaks??

Sat, 7 Oct 2000 10:14:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author JEF24 - I eat out quite often so I consider myself somewhat of a restaurant veteran. When it comes to steakhouses, Ponderosa is at the bottom of the food chain. The restaurant does seem to have some strange power over me though. No matter how many bad...
