A phone small enough to fit into your jean pocket with having to make a tremendous effort to fit it in, but not so small that you'd lose it... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~17654779524 Thu, 12 Apr 2001 14:21:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_17654779524?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_17653927556?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - If there's one story that's over used, over written and seen done well, mediocre and bad, that's the old tale of girl falls madly in love with guy who procedes to break her heart and winds up falling in love with good male friend. In this case, good... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~17653927556 Thu, 12 Apr 2001 14:14:28 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_17653927556?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-6E9C-313C40BF-3A5734C2-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - I have no qualms about their wireless service. Of course, that being because there really aren't that many wireless service companies out here in Canada, much less Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where there really are only 2 choices. AT&T or our local... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~2726071940 Sat, 6 Jan 2001 12:17:38 GMT http://www.epinions.com/elec-review-6E9C-313C40BF-3A5734C2-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/bsrv-review-60AE-313BADF4-3A57334A-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - Every bought things over the internet, knowing full well that they're from the States? Knowing that if you live in Canada, you will have to pay 1.5 times as much for that item because of the exchange rate, but went ahead with an order anyway? Well I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~4007038596 Sat, 6 Jan 2001 12:05:38 GMT http://www.epinions.com/bsrv-review-60AE-313BADF4-3A57334A-prod2?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-578E-13AD8DD9-3999D135-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - We've seen movies before that have story lines based on Bible stories or prophecies, but this time, our savior isn't an unlikely athiest woman, or some super hero man, but a 6 year old child. Not only is the focus of this story a child, but a child that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1074411 Tue, 15 Aug 2000 20:31:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-578E-13AD8DD9-3999D135-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-34D1-CD529FB-3998876A-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - Amy Heckerling, reknown teen flick director obviously should have stuck with the high school setting. This supposed romantic comedy about two college students trying to fit in and ultimately fitting in with each other, doesn't fly. Firstly, it was far... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1074653 Mon, 14 Aug 2000 21:05:10 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-34D1-CD529FB-3998876A-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-3D94-D79FE4C-3989F01D-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - Sounds like either a bad bar joke or a complicated love triangle, right? Well, it's a little bit of both. But quite well done. Although more humorous than touching, this is the story of once again, how you can't be JUST friends if you're a guy and a... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1077547 Thu, 3 Aug 2000 19:28:21 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-3D94-D79FE4C-3989F01D-prod1?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-1B59-21F73EE6-3981E469-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - One of the best family movies of the year starring the vocal talents of Mel Gibson and Miranda Richardson.

Most historic re-tellings seem to be long, dry and not very interesting. We know the facts, but what we as a society are... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1078929 Thu, 27 Jul 2000 19:54:46 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-51DD-389AEE9-3980BC38-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-47C5-11141239-3956A94F-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - They should have ended sooner. If they had ended with the toast to their dear departed friends, I would have been happy. I wouldn't have attempted to figure out their logic, and I wouldn't have to say that their theory on death having a pattern is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1088043 Sun, 25 Jun 2000 21:57:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-47C5-11141239-3956A94F-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-1DA6-1112FDF6-3956A68C-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - Well, I'll let you finish that sentence, but I'm sure you all know what I mean. Firstly, NOTHING like the commercial/trailer. I'm guessing that was filmed separately to lure the audience into the theatre. Secondly, the line they have on the poster,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1088048 Sun, 25 Jun 2000 21:52:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-1DA6-1112FDF6-3956A68C-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-404E-3162C6F-3932D7D8-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - You notice how the best scenes are always put in the trailer and rarely in the movie? Why is that? To suck you into slapping $9.50 down to watch this movie. Now, I probably should have waited until it got to the cheap theatre, but it looked so good, I... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1096030 Mon, 29 May 2000 17:58:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-404E-3162C6F-3932D7D8-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7AB1-3151071-3932D501-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - I swear that the trailers and the actual movie never seem to relate at all! From the trailer you get the sense that Lucas joins this elite secret society, they start killing people for really no reason, his girlfriend rallies behind him, good guys win... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1096035 Mon, 29 May 2000 17:46:22 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7AB1-3151071-3932D501-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-4922-89C7342-391C70D0-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - I admit, I didn't always love Starbucks. My first experience was at Vancouver International Airport, and at the time, being the 16 year old I was, I didn't exactly appreciate a frap. But having lived with it for an entire week during my trip to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~797024 Fri, 12 May 2000 18:03:54 GMT http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-4922-89C7342-391C70D0-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-6EB0-89BCA92-391C6F20-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - I definitely feel like this place is a rip off. It's greasy and the food looks NOTHING like it does in the commercial. Everything is smaller, and not worth the price half of the time. Especially the kids meal. Now that they've stopped packaging it in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~797025 Fri, 12 May 2000 17:58:38 GMT http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-6EB0-89BCA92-391C6F20-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-65AB-89B3601-391C6DA4-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - ripped off? Less than full? Less than satisfied? That it doesn't live up to it's name? That it's not worth the hype? Or is it just me? I've been there twice. Twice now. I thought the first time, maybe it's just this one particular restaurant... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~797026 Fri, 12 May 2000 17:51:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-65AB-89B3601-391C6DA4-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/rest-review-3DC6-89AB81B-391C6C62-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - There's nothing better than a place with pasta Tuesdays, cool decor and waiters/waitresses who plunk down pop refills before you even have to ask for one. That is my absolute favorite thing about this restaurant. Free pop refills.

The place is magnificent. I've only been there once, on a day trip, and only got to see parts of the city. But if you do go, do NOT miss Old Quebec. It's were most of the historic sites are located. There are many shops... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1273956 Fri, 12 May 2000 17:35:38 GMT http://www.epinions.com/trvl-review-4F96-8997F4B-391C6941-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/trvl-review-492-898F18F-391C67D6-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - Calgary's a big, beautiful place, but their city engineers must have been drunk when they designed the roads. It's a nightmare! They have all these trails that circle around for 1/2 hour and if you take one wrong turn on a major street, you have to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1273957 Fri, 12 May 2000 17:27:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/trvl-review-492-898F18F-391C67D6-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-60C1-897475F-391C6393-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - This film starring three of Hollywood's hottest stars, Ryan Phillippe, Reese Witherspoon and Sarah Michelle Geller is edgy, dark, evil and close to the dramatic level of an adult film rather than a teen flick. This story is based from a French novel... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1100918 Fri, 12 May 2000 17:14:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-60C1-897475F-391C6393-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7A26-8969C25-391C61DD-prod5?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - The opening music alone drew me into this story and kept me there the entire time. I must say that the addition of Charlotte Church's beautiful singing voice made the music in this movie stand out.

Actually, the thing that upset me the most was that actor Kris Lemche didn't get billing before... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1108131 Sun, 16 Apr 2000 23:54:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-31C8-137920C1-38FA7B42-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/mvie-review-7B18-13783A0F-38FA78F3-prod3?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author margo_lane - You ever noticed a lot of titles are misleading? Yeah, sure, I knew what this film was about before I rented it, but I sure didn't expect a swing dance sequence as the film opening, considering the word "Tango" was in the title.

I thought originally it was about a guy who met a girl, but his friends wanted him to be a player, then he tried to get her back.

The moments where I thought an ending would have been appropriate, where I thought it would end, it deceived me and kept going. The moment I expected it to keep going, it stopped.
