Go! Tropicana Go!

Advantages: Natural, very tasty, choice of flavours, 1 of the 5-a-day for kids
Disadvantages: None

...In this weather, Harry is drinking like a fish, and even though I take out a big cup of juice for him, it's usually gone by the time we get to town! So I've started to look at little drinks that I can pop in my bag for him when we run out. I did use Fruit Shoots for a while but he was getting hyper from them, and to be honest, they weren't all that nice and tasted so artificial! So when I popped to the supermarktet yesterday and saw these new Tropicana Go! drinks on buy-one-get-one-free offer, I thought they'd be worth a try for Harry! Tropicana Go! are a new drink for children, but the difference with these compared to similar drinks on the market is the fact that these contain 70% fruit juice and 30% water, and thats it! There's no colourings, additives, sweetners or added sugar at all, and that appealed to me straight away...

Review of Tropicana Go!

Go

Advantages: Interesting stories, good characters, quirky.
Disadvantages: Similarities to other films, Askew is annoying.

...I suppose I should get the inevitable Pulp Fiction comparisons out of the way at the start. Yes, it contains a group of stories that are all loosely connected via the characters. Yes, it contains drugs deals and accident overdoses. Yes, it contains the same kind of pop culture references. Now, if these things are going to detract from your enjoyment of Go, you probably shouldn't bother trying to watch it. If you can get past the fact that the similarities exist, you can enjoy an incredibly entertaining film. Because of the way Go is inter-connected, it's hard to describe the plot without spoiling other elements of the film. On a basic level, it revolves around a supermarket, with it's employees and customers providing the introduction for all of the story strands. We see checkout girl Ronna (Sarah Polley) attempt to carry out...

Away We Go

Advantages: A interesting story which is both funny and moving
Disadvantages: Not a film everyone would enjoy

...I saw this film recently and I really liked it. It is quite a quirky film, which is funny and touching at the same time. The film is based around two main characters in their 30s, Burt and Verona (played by John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph). Verona falls pregnant, completely unplanned, and then Burts parents make the surprise announcement that they are moving to Belgium.. 3 months before the baby is born. This news rocks the couples world, the only reason that they moved to that area was to be close to Burt?s parents. Veronas parents died many years ago, which she doesn?t like to talk about, and now they have nothing keeping them there, neither of them are in jobs they want to do and they live in a small, dingy flat where the lights keep going out. They make the decision to travel around America visiting family members and friends to...

Go??

Advantages: Different concept to movie making
Disadvantages: A bit confusing, to understand

...This movie can be broken up into three stories the characters in these stories are Ronna (Sarah Polley) who needs to increase her financial situation. Simon (Desmond Askew) who just wants a trip to Vegas and Adam and Zack who are out for a trouble free good time. The first story we are introduced to is about eighteen year old Ronna, who works in a super market as a shop assistant. Her plan is to increase her financial problem by selling drugs in the form of ecstasy, this back fires due to her inexperience. This leaves her on the run from her supplier Todd Gaines (Timothy Olyphant) when he finds out he has been ripped of by Ronna. The second storyline takes us to Simon, Ronnas British work colleague, who is a bit of a low life he is called a wanker to be exact! Simon is going to Las Vegas from Los Angeles by car, with his three...

Go Duster be gone

Advantages: Getting rid of cob webs
Disadvantages: Sprays dust everywhere

...I brought the Go Duster some time ago off a T.V program, it sounded really good, and if it saves time dusting then I'm up for giving it ago. CLAIMS - Faster, easier, more fun, picks up and traps dust. Ok so what is it. The Go Duster is a motorized duster that came with 3 different sized heads. The heads spin which causes static which in turn makes the dust stick to the fluffy spinning head. It is meant for all sorts of dusting which include plants, shelving, blinds, collectables etc. When I brought mine it came with an extra long head, medium head and a small head which is for keyboards or T.V screens but to be honest you can use which ever one you like on what ever you like, an extension handle for hard to reach places which is 90cms in length and a storage shelf. The handle is white plastic as is the extension handle...

Review of Go Duster

On the go with PoGo

Advantages: funky little printer and very easy to use
Disadvantages: paper curling (see review)

...The basics: 7.2cm x 12cm (fits in your pocket/handbag) Weighs 8oz Built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery Holds 10 sheets of Zink paper USB connection spot Bluetooth class 2 PictBridge The moment I unwrapped this little beauty I wanted to use it. I got the power lead and plugged it in. I didn't wait that required charging time as I was so eager to use it. At least once and then let it charge properly. I let it charge for about 20 minutes so that it would have some power to it. I then took out the pack of 10 sheets of paper that came free with it and slotted them into place. It took me a little while to go through my phone to find the perfect first photo. Sad I know but leave me to my simplicity! I found a cute photo of the kids cuddling and was ready to go... Step one: find photo (The following steps may vary depending on type...

Review of Polaroid PoGo

Go

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

..."Go" reads like a very very good sophomore offering by a very very good up-and-coming director. You can almost see a bright future for everyone involved in the film, from the director (Doug Liman) to the screenwriter (John August) to all of the young actors. The script is clearly the winner, with witty dialogue and a convoluted plotline (or plotlines, depending on how you view it) centered around a dozen or so GenX-er Los Angelenos on Christmas Eve. The film slickly moves you from one plotline to the next, as you follow one minor disaster leading to other minor disasters. The film being a "sophomore offering," of course, has some drawbacks. Yes, it is tangentially derivative of "Pulp Fiction." And yes, it does scrounge a bit from this teen flick and that. In some cases, certain plotlines wrap up too neatly, and in other cases...

Go Ask Alice : Fact or fiction?

Advantages: Very readable, interesting, absorbing
Disadvantages: Probably a fake

...GO ASK ALICE First published: 1971 Author: Anonymous ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Go Ask Alice" was published in 1971, in the wake of a whole generation of American and British youths being caught up in the largely hippie drug culture....a drug culture which was somewhat different in mood, intent and practice, to that which exists amongst the young now in the 21st century. Parents on both sides of the Atlantic dashed out in their droves to buy this book, in the hope that their teenage offspring would read it and see the light, change their ways, and become fine, good and upstanding young citizens. For a spell in the early 1980s during the Thatcher regime, "Go Ask Alice" was removed from print in the UK, as it was believed the book gave the wrong message to the young, the philosophy behind the ban being...

Away We Go- Lets go with them

Advantages: Beautiful story.Nice performances
Disadvantages: Might not appeal to all

...I was curious what Sam Mendez would do after Revolutionary road,a film that i thought was well told. I was rather unimpressed with his American beauty but after watching Revolutionary road and now Away we go,i have to say he knows what he is doing! Away We Go is a simple film.A film about an expecting couple looking to move away from their previous home to a new place.Burt(an ordinary insurance sales person)and Verona suddenly make the decision of moving away after Burt's parents decide to move away to europe just before the due date of their child's birth. The not so young couple have a few options and the treatment of the film somehow invites the audience to accompany them through their journey.Its a journey you don't mind taking,mainly due to the presence of such interesting characters.The character of Verona's ex-boss is truly...

13 going on 30 - a fairly predictable romcom

Advantages: Good cast, easy to watch
Disadvantages: Not very imaginative and the actors are underused

...WHAT IS IT: 13 Going on 30 is a romantic comedy starring Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo. 13 year old Jenna Rink has a practical joke played on her by the most popular girl in school, Lucy 'Tom Tom' Wyman, which leads Jenna to wish that she was 'Thirty, Flirty and Thriving' - a headline on her favourite magazine, Poise. As she rocks back and forth in her closet she bumps the shelf upon which is the 'dream house' her friend Matty has made for her birthday. The magical wishing dust Matty sprinkled on the dream house falls on Jenna and she wakes up to find herself 30 years old, an editor for Poise with a beautiful apartment and a very attractive if somewhat dim trophy boyfriend. As she tries to work out how she got to this point, she comes to realise that she is not the person she would like to be; she has become estranged from her parents...
