rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - I have to give that disclaimer for all the Harry Potter fans out there - my review is less than flattering of the film. I don't want to be an animal, so please don't cast any spells on me!

With the majority of reviews coming in at the movie's...

Enjoy Your Monkeys!

Thu, 22 Nov 2001 22:39:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - Super Monkey Ball? With a title like that, why spend fifty hard-earned dollars?

It might seem silly, but this game will make you an addict after the first try-- and it throws in some extra multiplayer games for good measure.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - You grew up in the South, so why buy a hockey game you ask? Get NHL 2001 by EA Sports and you'll know.

When I got the PS2 I bought a couple games up front, but this one was not one of them. If you can buy two or three games, make this one of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - The Sony Playstation 2 is hands down this year's best gaming system. Until next year when more competition arrives, you simply will have trouble finding better graphics, gameplay or fun built into a square plastic three hundred dollar box.

"77 in New York" is a better title

Mon, 31 Jan 2000 04:49:28 GMT
rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - Watch the movie. Look at the title again. Scratch your head. Is this the story of the Son of Sam killer, or about 20 people in 1970's New York City?

If you wanted a murder mystery, or a "slash-em" horror film, look elsewhere...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - There are hit records and then there are classics. The latter sinks into our minds, our souls...so that we hum their songs without realizing it. Patsy Cline's music and voice endures well beyond her short music career.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author netcigar - The 13th Warrior previews promised another "Zorro" action-adventure with Antonio Banderas, but those promises never surfaced.
