Want to know why the world’s economy is so screwed up right now? Read this book.

I enjoyed it – and that surprised me. The entire book is quite slow and drawn out (think literature not library novel). But there are some very good themes and some interesting journeys for the characters.

Go the kiwi stuntwoman! A real person in a film – now that is cutting edge.

This movie rocked. We did the Planet Terror/Death Proof double header last night and enjoyed them thoroughly.

If you enjoy gore (or can put your hands over your eyes at the right time) it is first class.

And heaps of Tarantino tidbits to keep fans smiling knowningly to each other.

A good film – some first class court scenes that have relevance in any modern army.

Bryan Brown’s last line is one of the best in cinema.

This movie sucked.

Slower than a old guy wearing a hat driving a Volvo.

I held in there until the end figuring it would be some master stroke… but no, nothing special.

For the hundreds of westerns made – no way is this one of the best.

You can watch the film on the internet archive website. small but watchable.

Great book – the end was a little rushed, but otherwise fantastic

The book was fine – a novella going down a very well worn path. The last line of the book however turned the mediocre into marvel. Simply great ending.

A lot of this book makes sense and talks about some large problems about women and their relationships with themselves, each other and men.

But the male conspiracy stuff is just stupid and the bullshit logic is just silly. I note she is a mate of Goleman – the emotional intelligence pretend scientist, and her writings follow this nonsense quite closely.

Naomi certainly opens your mind to some interesting ideas – but her logic culdesacs and extreme extrapolations just hurt her arguments.

I hope that serious sociologists and feminists can use it as a launching pad for some real research and writing on a very interesting social issue: why is beauty such a big deal?
