This action movie is what I like to call "realistic". Stallone does a good job of portraying a realistic character without saying much, and the movie looks very crisp considering it's from 1982.
The action in this movie is very believable, and none of the characters do anything that wouldn't be possible in real life, which is why it's my favorite action movie. There are no lame video game shootouts or obvious stuntman CGI special effects you see in every single action movie today. This thing is the real deal.
There are a few moments in the movie with some cheesy acting, like the scene where the general is talking inside the radio tent, or the National Guard guys when they're pinned down in the trench by Stallone, but other than that, everything is good, especially considering this was a low budget movie, I definitely believe it stands the test of time and is worth seeing by anyone who's fed up with computer animated green screen movies filled with braindead actors who read every line off the script page, or is looking for a good old school action movie that's not one to make fun of.
What's great about it: Realistic action movie, Stallone is very good
What's not so great: Few scenes with cheesy acting, the DVD extras
I would recommend this to a friend!

This movie is absolutely incredible. This is what a real movie is.
It stars Robert De Niro
It stars Jodie Foster
It's directed by Martin Scorsese
It made all 3 people instantly famous

This movie is about loneliness, depression, and anger against the ways of society. You can personally connect with the character in the movie, and even though it's over 30 years old, it's still as applicable today as it was in the late 70's.
Watching this movie will change the way you look at life.
What's great about it: It's Taxi Driver
What's not so great: You haven't bought it yet

Disregard what it says about these headphones being for the iPod/iPhone and BlackBerrys. These earphones work with any mobile phone or device with a 2.5 or 3.5mm plug.
I got these for my now gone Virgin Mobile Shuttle, and now I use them for my VM LG Rumor2, and they work good. Not great, but they're definitely good.
They come with a handy pouch.
I especially like the noise reducing feature of them, which is the main reason I got them, due to the silicone adapters that (should) fit nice and snug your ear.
I've worn these when operating a 2 stroke gas engine string trimmer at full throttle, which require a person to wear noise reducing earmuffs in order to prevent some serious ear damage, but these earphones reduces the engine noise so well that I can listen to music at only 1 level higher than I'd listen to it in a quiet room (4/8 volume setting on my phone).
That's most likely because the small-size adapters that come pre-installed fit my ears perfectly and comfortably, your results may differ. The silicone adapters come in 3 sizes, so if they don't fit well you probably will have problems with them either falling out or being too tight and uncomfortable.
I'm not expecting THX quality sound of out $50 earphones, and neither should you, but the music I listen to sounds pretty similar on these as it does on my desktop with a Creative X-Fi sound card with fine tuned equalizer settings and good speakers, these earphones are obviously going to have a lesser sound reproduction ability, but nothing to go crazy about, I find that they perform exactly like a $50 set of noise reducing earphones should. Sound quality also depends on the device they're connected to.
I haven't had any problems with these in terms of mechanical reliability, and I've used these under harsher circumstances than most people would.
You should get these, they're pretty much the best for the price, assuming the silicone adapters fit your ears.
What's great about it: Noise reduction, good sound quality
What's not so great: The 3 silicone adapters they come with may not fit everyone

I got this album and I'm surprised by how much I like it. This album is definitely way better than any lame poser rock you find all over, the lyrics are dark and the music is hard rock, old school Ozzy.
The only thing I don't like about this album is the production, it sounds kind of "pop-ish", I dunno how else to describe it. There are a lot of voice overdubs and pretty much every song has Ozzy singing in an electronic voice at one point or another.
That being said, you should still get it if you're a fan of Ozzy or old school hard rock/metal in general.
What's great about it: It's Ozzy and it's hard rock
What's not so great: The production is a little "pop-ish"

It's good to hear Metallica sound like Metallica again.
I was skeptical at first, because their 90's stuff wasn't too good, but this album is most definitely going back to Metallica's "kick your face" roots.
Get it and wake the neighbors up.
What's great about it: It's the best hard rock band
What's not so great: Nothing

Easily multitask while you're on the go by using this mobile phone that features a built-in 2.0MP digital camera for capturing special moments, Bluetooth capability for hands-free conversations and a music player, so you can rock out to your favorite tunes.

Yes, this phone is a BlackBerry and costs $150. Even if you didn't activate the phone, you'd get an MP3 player, camera/video recorder, voice recorder, personal organizer, and all the other BlackBerry stuff.
What this website doesn't tell you is that the only prepaid plan available for this phone costs $65 a month.
The Sidekick prepaid plan is NOT available on phones other than the Sidekick, it was unofficially, but not anymore because T-Mobile fixed the loophole.
If you can afford $65 a month for a phone, then there's really no point of getting prepaid, just get a contract. I can't see any advantage of getting a prepaid phone that costs $65 a month to operate.
What's great about it: It's a BlackBerry
What's not so great: It's FREAKING expensive!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
