Enter the Dragon

Advantages: Fights!!
Disadvantages: Bad acting, bad plot

..."You can call it the art of fighting without fighting." -- Lee (Bruce Lee) When you watch Enter the Dragon these days, it becomes pretty obvious, almost immediately, where films like Mortal Kombat and Conan the Destroyer got their inspiration from. This, the first kung film to be produced by a major Hollywood studio, and the last completed Bruce Lee film before his death "by misadventure", is credited with popularizing the martial art in America and establishing Lee as a cultural icon. And the reason that the film is considered such a quintessential film of the 1970s is not because of the plot or acting (both are appalling, to say the least) but because of the action. The fight choreography in Enter the Dragon is so good that we needn't bother dwelling on what's bad here. So ignore the paper-thin, James Bond-type plot...

Really Do, Enter The Dru

Advantages: Consistent
Disadvantages: One slip in quality

...Released in 1998, "Enter The Dru" second album from the R&B quartet, Dru Hill (consisting of members Woody, Jazz, Nokio and Sisqo). It follows on from their successful self-entitled debut, and has them move on from lots of ballds, to a more balanced R&B record of the late nineties. 1. "Enter The Dru" (Intro) 2. "Real Freak" Immediately displaying their shift to a more 'urban' stye of R&B for this album, they get things going with a tune which has them balance their singing with funky production. It has a lot of synth going on, and it is just what you expect for suhc a tune of the time. The theme of it is in tune with this direction of the music too. **Four Stars** 3. "How Deep is Your Love" Probably their most well-known single, this one has the group do a banger of a track, to essentially kill off all other...

Review of Enter The Dru - Dru Hill

Enter as Dragon... Exit as Legend!

Advantages: Superb fight sequences, compelling plot and excellent acting.
Disadvantages: Standard of fighting is not as magnificent as Way of the Dragon.

...A long time ago, way back in 1988, I watched a film which changed my life forever. The previous night, using our recently purchased VHS machine, my father had recorded a Kung Fu film for us to watch. At five years old, I had not had much exposure to films, and I had no idea what Kung Fu was or meant. All the family sat together, as we used to back in the days when we were all young and living at home, and my father pressed 'Play'. Enter the Dragon started, and it was to teach me about Kung Fu. Enter the Dragon was my first introduction to Bruce Lee, who is arguably the greatest Martial Artist of all time, and it was one I was never going to forget. I became a fan of Bruce instantly; his competence in acting was secondary to the magnificent Kung Fu he used to cripple his enemies. My interest and love for Martial Arts began in the wake...

Enter Shikari Fail To Get In 'The Zone' Here

Advantages: A 'New' CD from a great UK band
Disadvantages: Predominantly badly recorded demo tracks, a poor compilation of material

...Having formed in the suburban area of St. Albans back in 2003, Enter Shikari are one of the most hard working UK bands in existence. To date the band have performed well over 650 live shows, and characterised by their bricolage of glow sticks and mosh pits are a joy to behold. In the November of 2006, Enter Shikari became the second unsigned band in history to have played a sold out show at the London Astoria; the first band to have achieved this having been The Darkness. Enter Shikari have achieved great success for themselves over the past 12 months and they need not thank anyone for that but themselves. For their hard work and dedication Enter Shikari were approached by a number of large record companies, however turned down these offers and their début album 'Take To The Skies' was thus released through their own Ambush Reality label...

Review of Zone, The - Enter Shikari

Enter the music of Russian Circles

Advantages: Strong debut album, well chained together songs
Disadvantages: Ends too abruptly, for some it may take some getting used to

...Russian Circles are a three piece, post rock band from Chicago. And this is their debut album 'Enter' a mixture of melodic melodies and heavy riffs. Now, even though the whole album clocks up to only six songs, you're still getting your money's worth from this album, clocking up to just over 44 min of instrumental bliss. Plus, I'll describe every single track seeing as there is only six of them. Carpe: Begins slowly with a steady 4 note guitar pluck, but builds up to a heavy guitar thrashing only to pull you back and forward with the volume level and speed. Micah: More subtle but at the same keeps you on the edge; this track concentrates more on the impressive guitar picking work, with the drums and bass interfering now and again for showing off purposes. Death Rides A Horse: Starts hard and fast and continues that way all...

Enter The Matrix

Advantages: Moves, Storyline, Film Sequences
Disadvantages: Graphics (sometimes), Manoeuvrability

Review of Enter the Matrix (Xbox)

  Enter the Sony!

Advantages: Packed with extras, looks good and feels good.
Disadvantages: See review for the very minor con`s.

...Sony are one of the newest companies to venture into the world of DSLR`s, having been producing some quite excellent point and shoot cameras for many years this is a move that most people in the photography world had expected to happen a long time ago and a lot had feared the day it did happen too. The reason many photographers feared Sony entering the DSLR market is simply that it would be hard not to get drawn into what they had to offer but they feared that Sony might find the market too challenging and bale out leaving many photographers with cameras that they could not upgrade and would struggle to find lenses and accessories for. When buying a point and shoot camera you are spending in the region of between 100 and 200 pounds for a top of the range model, whilst when purchasing a DSLR camera you could be looking at spending...

Enter the Dragon

Advantages: haiiiiiayyyyyyyyyyyyyyiiiiiiiiiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Disadvantages: plot holes...brotha can't act...blonde d00d doesn't know karate

...Plot Details: This opinion reveals major details about the movie's plot How new is the product...how many people have written for it already...how many times the people that wrote for it got read...how popular is the product. Ugh...I am going nuts. It has been too long since I reviewed something for the sheer joy of it. I need to get the math out of my head. So here is a tribute to one of the few movies I ever bothered to buy. I don't buy movies; I think it?s a waste of money to do so because they will be on TV anyway. So why do I have this movie? Despite the fact that its older than me, 'Enter the Dragon' is the best martial arts movie ever made, and possibly it will not be topped during our lifetimes unless there is a major change in Hollywood?s attitude. The kung-fu mania has came and gone, and we only have B-rated martial arts...

Kung ciao, entered by my fist

Advantages: Top class entertainment, something pretty original
Disadvantages: Novelty value not to everyones taste, review wont make sense to most people whoa rent filled in on pablos back story, which'll be about ninety percent then

...Seemingly lost to injustice Pablo looks up at the figure that stands in the doorway of the fish factory. Kel and a bloodied chinese steve bow their heads. Pablo: Captain, i thought you were dead, i killed you. The captains booming voice fills the factory floor, he speaks of laying, wounded on the grass. Wolves dragged him away into the forest, seemingly to eat him but that didnt happen. Pablo: where were you Before he continues, the captain orders the monkey of justice back into pablos head, inside tiny pablo takes down his posters and makes a space on the couch for the monkey. Tiny pablo: hey Monkey: hey Tiny pablo: look are we going to be friends again monkey: i suppose we'll have to really Tiny; yeah Monkey: what you watching?
